2. COPY THIS STANDARD AFTER YOUR LAB (IT GOES ON STRUCTURE OF DNA PAGE OF JOURNAL) 9-11 LS1E The genetic information responsible for inherited characteristics is encoded in the DNA molecules in chromosomes. DNA is composed of four subunits (A,T,C,G). The sequence of subunits in a gene specifies the amino acids needed to make a protein. Proteins express inherited traits (e.g., eye color, hair texture) and carry out most cell functions.
