DNA is not our cellular membrane. Cell membranes are cellular membranes.
DNA is the stuff INSIDE the cell membranes and INSIDE the nuclear membranes. It is the key to life. Your DNA tells every single cell in your body what to do, when to divide, when to repair itself, when to die, etc....
DNA gives you 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 kidneys, hair color, eye color, etc. DNA is what is passed onto offspring which is why your children have some of the same traits that you do.
Damaged DNA can result in uncontrolled cell division (read=CANCER), a whole score of genetic diseases, and many other more mundane health problems.
Just wanted to clarify.
