Mathematical Sequence in DNA

Today I learned about DNA. DNA stands for “deoxyribonucleic acid,” but I prefer “DNA”. It is like a computer program for your body. Everybody has different DNA, except identical twins. Identical twins are basically clones. DNA is at the center of your cells inside the nucleus. It is arranged in a spiral shape called a double helix and it comes in long strands called chromosomes. Each section of DNA codes for a different thing like if you have big ears or a certain disease. It uses the Fibonacci numbers in its construction.
