Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. ^[e]
Chromosome [r]: A compact body of ribonucleic acid wrapped around proteins that is the unit in which genetic material is distributed during cell division. ^[e]
Evolution [r]: A change over time in the proportions of individual organisms differing genetically. ^[e]
Genome [r]: The set of all genes of an organism. ^[e]
Nucleic acid [r]: A class of macromolecules important in conveying genetic information. ^[e]
Polymer [r]: A compound of high molecular weight derived either by the addition of many smaller, similar molecules (monomers), or by the condensation of many smaller, similar molecules eliminating water, alcohol, etc. ^[e]

Subtopics

Nucleotide [r]: A repeating unit in nucleic acid polymers consisting of a purine or pyrimidine base, a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group. ^[e]
Nucleoside [r]: A purine or pyrimidine base attached to a ribose (used in RNA) or deoxyribose (used in DNA). ^[e]
Deoxyribose [r]: Add brief definition or description
Bases [r]: In the context of nucleic acids, the non-sugar part of nucleotides, which can be either a pyrimidine (usually cytosine, thymine, or uracil) or a purine (usually adenine or guanine). ^[e]
- Adenine [r]: A base incorporated into DNA and RNA and part of an energy carrier, as ATP, in metabolism. ^[e]
- Cytosine [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Guanine [r]: Natural biomolecule used as one of the five bases in RNA and DNA. ^[e]
- Thymine [r]: Add brief definition or description

Gene [r]: The functional unit of heredity. ^[e]
Allele [r]: A specific sequence of a gene, and one of a pair in a diploid cell (one per chromosome). ^[e]
Codon [r]: Add brief definition or description

DNA sequencing [r]: The process of determining the order of the nucleobases adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C) within a strand of DNA. ^[e]
