Solution

The correct option is A DNA
We resemble our parents because genetic information is passed from one generation to the other through the DNA. For instance, DNA in humans determines such things as what colour the eyes are and how the lungs work. Each piece of information is carried on a different section of the DNA. These sections are called genes.
