The copying of DNA enables the cells to divide and reproduce, for damages struc-
tures to be repaired and for genetic data to be transmitted to the new cell..
entists who discovered the structure of DNA, reduced the replication
process they described as a "perfect biological principle," to a very sim-
ple form. Today, however, we know that the way DNA copies itself is
so complex as to amaze scientists. Twenty separate proteins and en-
zymes must be present for even the smallest strip of DNA to be repli-
cated. 88
Prof. Werner Gitt describes the perfection inherent in this replica-
tion:
The DNA is structured in such a way that it can be replicated every time
a cell divides in two. Each of the two daughter cells must have identical-
ly same genetic information after the division and copying process. This
replication is so precise . . . . 89
One of the most miraculous aspects of DNA replication is that un-
conscious is molecules carry out everything described here. Enzymes
consisting of combinations of unconscious atoms identify the missing
sections of the DNA helix, obtain the missing parts and install them in
