What is DNA?
the molecule that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism.
What is RNA
transcription and delivery of genetic instructions from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where proteins are made.

How does DNA work
DNA's unique structure enables the molecule to copy itself during cell division.
How does RNA work
RNA is made to carry protein to the ribosomes
How does the cell protein work?
