DNA to the Moon and Back 8,000 Times
Posted by Lev/Christopher on December 31, 2008 at 2:03am
in Science & Technology
You all know that our bodies are made up of millions upon millions of
Microscopic cells. Well within each one of these cells, as I'm sure you
also know, there is a strand of DNA. This is the bit that blew me away;
The strand of DNA in each of those microscopic cells is approximately 2
METRES long! That means that if you were to put each strand of DNA in
your body end to end, it would stretch to the moon.....and
back.....8000 times! How amazing is that?
Psalm 139: 13,14 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together
in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and
wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
