Consider these facts about DNA structure and protein synthesis: 1) DNA is a macromolecule made of repeating subunits called nucleotides.
2) Genes are long sequences of nucleotides.
3) Sequences of nucleotides in a gene provide codes used to make proteins.
4) Proteins are macromolecules made of repeating subunits called amino acids.
5) The order of nucleotides in a gene determines the order of amino acids in a protein.
6) The order of amino acids in a protein determines its shape.
7) The shape of a protein determines its utility.

Use these facts to write a short paragraph on how structure is related to function in both DNA and proteins.
