DNA molecule (down right), computer artwork
DNA molecule (down right), computer artwork. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) consists of two strands of sugar phosphates forming a double helix (spiral). The strands are linked by nucleotide base pairs (horizontal struts). The sugar-phosphate strands are blue, but highlighted orange at upper right. In this highlighted section, the nucleotide bases are blue. There are four types of nucleotide base found in DNA. The sequence of these bases along the molecule is the genetic code. This DNA genetic code controls growth and development, and it is passed on during reproduction. DNA is found in all living things, and is stored in cell nuclei

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of DNA, our blueprint for life. The image features a computer-generated artwork that vividly represents the double helix formation of DNA molecules. The sugar-phosphate strands, depicted in blue, elegantly intertwine to create the iconic spiral shape. In the upper right corner, an orange highlight draws attention to a specific section where nucleotide bases are linked together by horizontal struts. The significance of this highlighted region lies in its representation of the genetic code encoded within DNA. These four types of nucleotide bases—symbolized by their striking blue color—are responsible for controlling growth and development in all living organisms. As reproduction occurs, this precious genetic information is faithfully passed on from one generation to another. DNA is not limited to any particular species; it exists within every living thing and resides within cell nuclei. This molecular marvel plays a pivotal role in biology and genetics, serving as the foundation upon which heredity operates. Its complex structure holds immense potential for scientific exploration and understanding. This stunning illustration serves as a reminder of both the beauty and complexity inherent in nature's building blocks—the fundamental elements that shape life itself.
