Description
Genetic research. Conceptual image of silhouetted humans projected on a DNA autoradiogram. The bands (black) of the autoradiogram reveal the genetic data encoded in a sample of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The bands correspond to the nucleotide bases in DNA, and the banding pattern shows the sequence of the bases. It is this sequence that forms a genetic code that is unique for every individual and determines genetic characteristics such as eye and hair colour. DNA is a fundamental molecule that controls the development and functioning of every living organism.
