Introduction:
DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the genetic material for all organisms, except vriuses. The genes are expressed in the form of proteins. These genes determine the different traits carried by an individual. For example, genes coding for the color pigment of wings determine whether it will be a dark or light colored wing.
