Gives cells structure, shape, specific processes, and are involved in the expressions of traits. A physical description or characteristic that an organism can pass on to its offspring. Ex: eye color, hair color, etc Base pairs that are used to make up the genetic codes or combinations of genes Where DNA is stored in Eukaryotic cells Builds the protein DNA that is folded up so that it fits into the nucleus
