Genome entry #3 Life

To introduce this chapter, Ridley talks about the importance of RNA. It came before DNA and what makes these RNA and DNA are protein sequences. RNA is needed to create DNA. Francis Darwn believed that gene make up the pieces of our life. The two future inverters of DNA models are CRick and James Watson. One worked in a naval mine and the other at University of Chicago. Osward Avery discovered DNA as the chemical manifestation of heredity. Also that RNA came before proteins and that it DNA is a pattern written in words of the Alphabet. RNA and DNA are very important in the make up of life, it is what creates life. We are different from each other only because of RNA and DNA. As minor as that seems, it makes a huge impact on every living organism.
