Dana Perry · Answer 2

DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell. Depending on the type of cell, different parts of the DNA are used (example; if it's an eye cell, the DNA will use the segment that is dedicated to the functions of the eye). When a protein is needed, the DNA will split and in a process called transcription, the DNA messages are copied onto mRNA. The mRNA then leaves the nucleus through nuclear pores, and then travels through the cytoplasm to locate ribosomes which will produce the proteins needed to express whatever trait it codes for.
