Whast does DNA stand for

Answer 1

Secondly , the biological definition of DNA is:

"It is longest macromolecule and the main part of chromosomes that transfers the genetic characteristics in life form".

Answer 2

DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA).
