Functions of DNA
(a) DNA acts as a genetic material.
(b) It is worthwhile emphasizing that the main role of the DNA is storage and transmission of genetic information from parents to offsprings or from one generation to another.
(c) DNA is capable of undergoing replication (synthesis of another copy of DNA) and being transcribed into RNA (transcription).
(d) These two processes enables the genetic information encoded in the DNA found in the nucleus to be transformed into a functional biological material e.g protein in the cytoplasm.
