Hello, dear philosopher
Thank you for your interesting explanation.
By a drop of DNA, I did not mean its nature and gender. It was an example. If it is collected as much as a drop of DNA, it has the ability to store and receive all the information in the world. The mechanism of receiving and storing information by DNA is one of the wonders of creation. And science has not yet fully understood this process. Secondly, DNA contains genetic information and can store it for a long time. The existence of deoxyribonucleic acid and its information and genetic codes are necessary for the growth and development, reproduction, survival and continuation of life of all living things.
In living organisms, the DNA molecule carries genetic traits and information, which is in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and in the cytoplasm of prokaryotic cells. These molecules are transmitted between generations by reproduction, and in humans all cells have the same deoxyribonucleic acid. These molecules control the production of proteins and other cells in the body of organisms and the production of other DNA. So that the smallest change in the genetic information of these molecules will leave many effects and consequences in the cells and therefore in the body of living beings.
For example, words are formed by putting letters together, and genetic codes are formed by the way organic bases are put together. These genetic codes can make different proteins in the body. In 99% of humans, the way bases are placed together is the same and the difference in the remaining 1% creates different genetic traits in people.
"The key to the functioning of all cellular behavior, according to Watson and Crick, lies in DNA. Although it may seem complicated and unlikely, all the information in our body is encoded and stored by repeating sequences of 4 small members called nucleotides." Imagine a huge building made of only 4 models of building materials or a complex language whose alphabet has no more than 4 letters. DNA is a long chain of these small letters and blocks. And it has the ability to store all cellular information.DNA contains information that is needed to make all the necessary proteins of all cells, and these proteins together give meaning and meaning to a living organism. When a cell divides, all of this information must be transferred correctly so that the mother and daughter cells do not differ from each other.
Before a cell can divide, it must first replicate. In other words, a copy of its DNA must be prepared.
Where replication takes place varies depending on whether the cell is eukaryotic or prokaryotic. DNA replication takes place in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes and the nucleus of eukaryotes. Except for the locational nature of this process, the rest of the DNA replication process is common between eukaryotes and prokaryotes.
The structure of DNA simply allows the enzymes and proteins involved in the replication process to enter the cycle and start the process. Each side of the double helix is in the opposite direction of the other helix. That is, the end of one is the beginning of another.
The interesting thing about this model is its similarity to regular zippers, except that it can be opened from any area and its pattern can be copied. Because nothing is lost, but a new pattern is formed based on the old pattern, DNA replication is called semi-protective. To carry out this process, special tools are needed.
I hope that the scientific article that I told you in this message has clarified the process of storing information in DNA.
Good luck
No. And I already explained this to you - there is no "information" in any DNA molecule. The word "information" is being used there as an "analogy" to things like computers where data is purposefully stored by humans ...
... all that DNA or any molecule can ever do is to have it's own chemical properties, which are determined by the atoms of which it's composed, the type of bonds that it has between the atoms, and the spatial geometry that the macroscopic molecule has ... the molecule has no clue about any "information" ... that word "information" is only our human shorthand language to describe various features and chemical properties that any molecule has...
... it's like saying "Light chooses the shortest path between two points" ... the light (photons) do not "choose" anything! ... all that is happening is ordinary physics.
... all that is happening with DNA is ordianry mindless chemistry (chemical reactions).
And ... there is not a single word about “DNA” anywhere in the Quran.
