Answer:

The amount of nucleotides or base pairs contained in DNA is commonly used to define its length.

Explanation:

DNA is a double-stranded helical molecule with repeating units of deoxyribonucleotides on each strand. The length of a DNA molecule is determined by the number of nucleotides or nucleotide/base pairs (bp) that it contains.

DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is what gives humans and nearly all other animals their genetic makeup. Nearly all of a person's cells have the same DNA. The bulk of DNA is found in the cell nucleus, where it is referred to as nuclear DNA; however, a small amount is also found in the mitochondria. (where it is referred to as mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA)). Mitochondria are cell structures that convert food energy into a form that cells can use.
