Although there are three forms of DNA that have been discovered (A form, B form and the Z form), the structure of DNA itself is the same in all organisms.
DNA may be packed differently or may contain additional chemical groups attached to the bases (like methylated DNA). However, the structure of DNA is similar in all organisms. This is the reason why it has been named the molecule of life.

What best describes why our understanding of DNA and inherited traits has changed over time?
As with any knowledge, it takes time to discover all the parts. The structure of DNA took time to learn. Then the fact that there were recurrence of 4 bases and these bases had matching bases on the second strand of DNA. We did not have the tools at first. As they came along, we learned more and more.
Does DNA degrade over time, and if so, what factors contribute to this degradation process?
Yes, DNA can degrade over time due to various factors such as exposure to light, heat, moisture, and enzymes. These factors can cause the DNA molecules to break down and lose their structure, leading to degradation.
Which best describe how our understanding of DNA and inherited traits have changed over time?
Our understanding of DNA and inherited traits has evolved from the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA by Watson and Crick in 1953 to the mapping of the human genome in 2003. We now know that DNA carries the genetic instructions for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all living organisms. Advances in genetics have also revealed the complex interactions between genes and the environment in shaping inherited traits.
How do scientists know that organisms have changed over time?
Scientists use evidence from the fossil record, comparative anatomy, DNA analysis, and observations of natural selection to understand how organisms have changed over time. By studying these pieces of evidence, scientists can track the gradual changes in species over generations, providing strong support for the theory of evolution.
Explain how the structure and function of DNA enable species to change over time through natural selection.?
The structure of DNA allows for genetic variation through mutations, which introduce new traits into a population. Natural selection acts on these variations, favoring traits that increase an organism's fitness for its environment. Over time, these advantageous traits can accumulate in a population, leading to species adaptations and evolution.

Is DNA a vestigial structure?
No. DNA is not a vestigial structure as it has not ceased to function
The structure of DNA was devoleped by?
The structure of DNA has been a constant structure since the beginning of creation.
