Your Very Own DNA

Today in Mrs. Walters’s class I learned a lot about your DNA. DNA really stands for “deoxyribonucleic acid”. You can think of your DNA like a computer for your body. Everything in your body is your own, like for example, your fingerprints, and your hair, things like that. But some people in the world have clones which are really called “twins”. Twins are people who have the exact same face, the exact same DNA, and of course the exact same parents.

Some people actually take a living organism and copy their DNA to make the exact clone of them which is called “artificial cloning”. I personally think in some cases it’s right,but in other cases it’s wrong. If the police are in like a crime scene and they find a hair they easily find out who it is. They can go to their DNA labs and test the hair and it will go straight to whose hair it is. Your DNA can also tell who your parents are, too.
