DNA is located in every cell of an organism and is located at the very center of the cell inside the nucleus. The strands of DNA are formed in a Double Helix and then tighly coiled around itself inside the nucleus. If you layed every strand of DNA in your body end to end it would be several miles long. DNA gives us our individuality and contains the formula for our genetic makeup. It determines every single feature about us and it is unique to the individual. There are no two people with identical DNA.
