DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) MCQ
Hello students, our topic is DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). DNA molecule were not known before. Some scientists were having opinion that the cell structure have a part that transmits characters to the other generation. The full form of DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA found in the nucleus because of this reason it is known as nucleic acid. DNA is double stranded molecule and it is present on the chromosome. The chromosome number is different for different individual. The structure of Deoxyribonucleic acid is discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick.
