How does DNA determine an organism's traits?

• DNA determines an organism's traits by controlling the environment it lives in

• An organism's traits are determined by its diet and exercise habits

• DNA contains the genetic information that codes for proteins, which determine an organism's traits.

• An organism's traits are randomly assigned at birth and have no relation to DNA
