Analogy

DNA and genes is like a living system solving a small survival problem: each part has a job, and the answer depends on how those jobs connect.

Why now: An analogy helps when the definition feels abstract.

Do this: Match each part of the analogy to the science idea.

Learn it

DNA is a polymer that carries genetic information.

A gene is a section of DNA that codes for a protein or characteristic.

Chromosomes are long DNA molecules found in the nucleus.
