The answer is DNA. DNA is vital for all living beings and this is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base. The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine. There are three main functions of DNA to our body, this facilitate occurring mutations and even in a single nucleotide. Then it forms RNA and proteins and this exchange the genetic material of parental chromosomes during meiotic cell.
