What does DNA really stand for? How about, Dad's Not Active, or Dad Never Ate. Nope DNA stands for a really long word!!! We all know DNA is inside your body, but what's inside the DNA?!
Picture this, you have your body, then your skin, then your muscles, then your bones and body parts, then we get to the really small stuff... the cells. Inside cells is where the DNA "lives." Inside the nucleus is where the DNA stays in an eukaryotic cell. In a prokaryotic cell, the DNA just floats around in the cytoplasm. Not only to cells and our body's have parts, so does DNA. DNA has little parts too! In DNA you'll find a lot of the same things like sugar, phosphates, and some other stuff.

DNA looks like a twisted ladder and lives inside us. I sure don't know what I'd do without my DNA! Thanks
