I can describe that dna is coded instructions for a cell

1
DNA is a giant molecule that contains instructions for a cell.
2
DNA is stored in the nucleus of a cell, which is like the cell's head office or library.
3
The instructions in DNA tell the cell how to make proteins, which are like tiny machines that run the cell.
