Edible DNA

This is a model of DNA, but its made of candy. DNA is located in the nucleus of a cell and has a master set of instructions for the cell. It looks like a twisted ladder and its made of sugar and phosphate. It takes around an hour for DNA to copy itself which is pretty fast in my opinion.

Some Questions I have

  • How did we find out that DNA is made from sugar and phosphate?
  • Why does DNA look like a twisted ladder?

I could do some research to find out these answers as I think these questions are quite unique and might not have just on answer.

  1. Good work making a post talking about what DNA is and what DNA does. Consider showing how your model demonstrates the parts and functions of DNA. Also, consider doing some research into the questions that you have about DNA. You picture does not show up.
