Solution
DNA:
Deoxyribonucleic acid also referred to as DNA, is a complex molecule that stores all of the information needed to create and maintain an organism.
DNA is a component of every living thing's cells.
In fact, almost all of the cells in a multicellular organism have the DNA necessary for that organism.
However, DNA acts as the primary unit of heredity in organisms of all kinds and does more than only describe the form and function of living things.
No, DNA is not a cell.
