Mechanism

Follow the mechanism step by step and distinguish what causes the change from what is merely observed.

This extension applies that lens specifically to DNA: The Code of Life.

DNA: The Code of Life

DNA stores information in nucleotide sequences. Complementary base pairing supports replication, while transcription and translation connect genes to polypeptides.

Core checkpoint: Keep replication, transcription and translation as distinct information processes.
