Vocabulary
Deoxyribonucleic acid contains the genetic instructions that control the biological development of our cells and the proteins the cells make. DNA codes the sequence of the amino acids in proteins using the genetic code, a triplet code of nucleotide bases.

ER stands for
Endoplasmic Reticulum
The part of RNA and DNA involved in pairing; it includes cytosine, guanine, adenine, thymine (DNA) and uracil (RNA), abbreviated as C, G, A, T and U. They are usually simply called bases in genetics. Also called base pairs.
