Nucleotides
• DNA is a repeating sequence of nucleotides
• Nucleotides contain
• Phosphate • Sugar• Base

DNA Structure
Base Pairs• Adenine – Thymine
• Guanine – Cytosine

DNA and Chromosomes
• DNA is wound into tight coils which form chromosomes.
• Genes - sections of chromosomes that code for a characteristic or protein.

Chromosomes
• Humans have 46 different chromosomes.
• 23 homologous pairs

Inheritance of Chromosomes
•23 homologous pairs•23 from Mum and 23 from Dad.Including•2 sex chromosomes
XX – female
XY - male

Genes and Alleles
• Genes - Sections of Chromosomes that code for a particular protein or characteristic are eg. Eye colour.

Alleles
• Alleles – Different versions of genes eg. Blue eyes, brown eyes.
• Humans have 2 alleles of each gene as we have 2 copies of each chromosome.
