1. DNA is a linear code of biological information in the form of genes. DNA is transcribed to another linear molecule RNA, which is translated into a linear polypeptide. For each gene, there sites which control the transcription and translation and sites which defines the beginning and end of the gene, the mRNA and the polypeptide. For a single gene, its mRNA and the resulting polypeptide, draw all the three molecules in parallel and indicate the control sites and those which mark the beginning and end of each.
