Summary Introduction
To determine: The order of the flow of the genetic information in the cell.
Introduction:
The genetic information of a cell is stored in the form of the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) in the nucleus of the eukaryotic cells. The external signals from the cells signal the genes to pass the genetic information and translate it into the proteins. The genetic information is then passed on to different organelles.
