The genetic code is carried by the DNA molecule in most organisms. DNA is the store for hereditary information.

In eukaryotic cells, DNA is found in the cell nucleus, while in prokaryotes it is found in the nucleosome.

The genetic code is the triplets of nucleotides in DNA and RNA that define and direct which amino acid is used in protein synthesis.

The genetic code is expressed in 64 different  triplet combinations that code for different amino acids.  Three of these triplets are called non sense triplets or codons because they do not code for any amino acid. The rest are sense codons.

Explain how phospholipids form cell membranes.
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Phospholipids are able to form cell membranes because the phosphate group head is hydrophilic (water-loving) while the fatty acid tails are hydrophobic (water-hating). They automatically arrange themselves in a certain pattern in water because of these properties, and form cell membranes.
