Sound travels through all mediums solid, liquid, and gas. Because sound is a vibration it will travel fastest through solids. This is because the vibrations that make up sound are carried from one place to another by neighboring molecules vibrating against one another. The density of the solid is higher than liquid and gas which means the molecules are more tightly packed and the vibration can pass from one to the next more quickly.

One of the major limitations of using the ball and stick model for DNA, is that within a single double stranded segment of DNA, one would have to use many many balls to represent atoms that are present in the sugar phosphate backbone, along with all of the main atoms that compose the nitrogenous bases of DNA, we also cannot construct or show the helical form of DNA, by using balls and sticks as well.
