Each DNA molecule is made up of two spirally coiled chains
made up of sugars and phosphorus molecules and in the
middle nitrogenbases.This arrangement looks like a ladder.
nitrogen bases are adenine, guanine, thiamine, cytosine.
Adenine always pairs with thiamine by two hydrogen bonds.
These are known as 2D base pairs.
Guanine always pairs with cytosine by three hydrogen
bonds.These are known as 3D base pairs.

How DNA is being Transplanted?
Consider two linked autosomal genes. The dominant allele C of the first gene causes cataracts of the eye, whereas its recessive allele produces normal eyes. The dominant allele P causes polydactyly (an extra finger) whereas its allele (p) produces a normal number of fingers. A man with cataracts and normal fingers marries a woman with polydactyly and normal eyes. Their son has both polydactyly and cataracts and he marries a woman with neither trait. What is the probability that their first child will have cataracts and polydactyly?

How is a genetic trait determined by the genetic code within a dna molecule?
Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three traits that were studied by Mendel. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three traits was allowed to self- fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to show all three dominant phenotypes?
