the order of the codons
Explanation: the sequence (order) of nucleotides/codons in DNA determines which amino acids get assembled into proteins. Different sequences produce different proteins and traits. The DNA double-helix structure is the same in all organisms, and total base-pair number varies but does not by itself encode specific traits.
