The structure that carries genetic information is DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). DNA is composed of two long strands that form a double helix, with sequences of nucleotides (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) encoding the genetic instructions necessary for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of living organisms. In addition to DNA, RNA (ribonucleic acid) also plays a crucial role in carrying genetic information and translating it into proteins, particularly in the process of transcription and translation.
