1) The human body consists of fifty-nine different elements and seven billion billion billion atoms. These atoms join together to form cells, which then make up our organs. What is most remarkable is that not one organ or cell is in charge. They all communicate to create coordinated action.
2) Inside each cell is your DNA, which is like an instruction manual for making you. The paradox of genetics is that all humans share 99.9 percent of our DNA and yet we are all so different. A large portion of our DNA still remains a mystery.
