The brontosaurus is no longer a real dinosaur because WHY?
There are a set of rules for giving dinosaurs their scientific names, and one of those is that the first name given to a dinosaur is the one that is used.

What is the DNA structure of a brontosaurus?
We have no DNA from Brontosaurus, or any other dinosaur. DNA can last hundreds of thousands of years in permafrost, but no Brontosaurus fossils have been preserved constantly in permafrost. Additionally, Brontosaurus fossils are millions of years old, not hundreds of thousands, so even if it had been constantly frozen they probably would still have no DNA left. One last note: Brontosaurus is not a real dinosaur; you are referring to Apatosaurus.
