Directions for the User

Here are some reminders to guide as you go through this module:
1. Read and follow each directions carefully;
2. Answer the pre-test before proceeding to the activity;
3. Take down notes and record points for clarification;
4. Always aim to get at least 80% of the total number of items given;
5. Be sure to answer the post test at the end of the module.
Introduction
All organism contain hereditary materials known as deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA. It is
contained in all cells of an organism with almost similar in components. Eukaryotic cell’s DNA is
housed in the nucleus of the cell and some are in the mitochondria while in prokaryotic cell’s
DNA is contain in the loop like structure called nucleoid. The main role of DNA is for inheritance,
coding for proteins and the genetic instruction guide for life structure and functions. DNA holds
the instructions for an organism's or each cell's development and reproduction and ultimately
death.
