Thank you for your support and assistance. Page 1 A New Understanding of Aging and Disease based on subtle electrical phenomena in DNA and RNA DNA is composed of simple chemicals strung together like beads which form molecules known as bases. The base is directly attached to the sugar. DNA chains are stupefyingly long. Human DNA is broken up into 46 chromosomes in each of our 6.3 trillion body cells.
Chromosomes are microscopic rod-shaped bodies which carry genes.
Genes make proteins and control enzymes. Enzymes in turn control all cellular functions. All the DNA in a cell is contained in the chromosomes. If all DNA of one human cell were laid out straight, it would be about 1 yard long. If this DNA string is imagined as a flexible ladder, it would have about 6 billion steps.
