The breakdown of telomerase when DNA is replicated from a parent (old) cell to a daughter (new) cell. Telomerase is a protein that serves as a protector to the information in the DNA molecule, and is also responsible for the maintenance of cell health.
The upside is, people don't start to age until this protein begins to fail at protecting its DNA molecule, and faulty DNA is replicated. This is why babies do not have poor skin or faulty complexions, and why they do not suffer such superficial things as WRINKLES. (This is not including genetic abnormalities, which can't be compensated for unless damaged DNA actually fixes the problem....)
The downside is that cancer cells use this poor, defenseless protein as a power source, and why cancer cells are, literally, immortal.
if you want the study island answer it is (the unique sequence of nucleotides)
protein
A stretched out DNA molecule is referred to as chromatin. Chromatin is the material that makes up chromosomes, and consists of DNA wrapped around histone proteins. It is found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
mRNA makes a complimentary copy of the DNA molecule according to the base-pairing rule.
DNA molecule is what makes proteins. This is in the body.
The sequence of nucleotide bases, which are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G), determines the unique genetic information in each DNA molecule. Variations in this sequence result in different genes and ultimately lead to the diversity observed in living organisms. Additionally, differences in the length or structure of a DNA molecule can also distinguish one from another.
they break apart and they find other DNA strands and form more DNA strands.

Heck No!
The sugar that is found in DNA is known as deoxyribose.

Deoxyribose sugars and phosphates make up the backbone of DNA.
DNA (Dioxyribonucleic Acid)
Deoxyribose sugar makes up the backbone of the DNA molecule. This sugar is a type of pentose sugar that forms the repeating units along the DNA strand.
A DNA molecule consists of two strands that are made up of sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate molecules. The sides of the DNA molecule are formed by alternating sugar and phosphate molecules linked together to create a backbone for the molecule.
