Since prehistoric times, people have noticed how children tend to resemble their parents and grandparents. People also recognized that some human diseases tended to run in families as well. Learn why this happens and how it was discovered. What is the substance in cells that carries the heritable trait information? Further, what is the structure of this substance? ------------------------------------------ Join DNA Dan each month as he dives deep into the world of genetics, genomics, D...
