Answer: The sequence of nucleotide bases in the DNA

Explanation: The sequence of the nucleotides directly code for each trait. The genetic code is contingent on the sequence of the bases- if the order is changed (you will learn about this in genetic mutation), it would create a different code, which could possibly create a totally different gene depending on which base is changed.

Hope this helps,
