How does DNA in cells determine an organism’s complex traits?

• DNA contains codes for proteins, which are necessary for the growth and functioning of an organism.

• DNA separates into long single strands that make up each part of an organism

• DNA produces the energy an organism needs in order to grow.

• DNA folds into the nucleus of each of the cells of an organism
