Answer 2

I don't know

Answer 3

alright
do you know what are proteins?

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

so proteins are made of amino acids
and these amino acid sequences of a particular protein are encoded in genes
genes are in DNA
and DNA has information on what eye color will you have
the expression of this character, eye color, is done through translating DNA info into proteins which show the expression, & proteins i mentioned earlier are made of amino acids

DNA is like a book of instructions
while proteins are the ones that make those instructions of DNA happen

Answer 6

i hope its clear?
