With the addition of a sperm cell's genetic information to an egg
cell, a total of 10 27 atoms assume an extraordinarily organized form. 102

In his book Our Molecular Nature, David S. Goodsell describes the com-
bining of these genetic data:
Parents each provide half of the set of 46 strands, so our cells contain two
similar sets of 23 strands. The choice between reading the mother's or the
father's version in each particular case provides the rich mixture of inher-

ited traits seen in children. Features that may be traced to a single protein
show very specific rules of heredity; if neither parent provides the recipe
for tyrosinase, the child will be albino. Other personal features –shape of
the nose and eyes, build of body, temperament– may depend on the com-

Just one out of
millions of
sperms suc-
ceeds in pierc-
ing the protec-
tive shell
around the egg.
In the final
stage, the
sperm's tail
breaks off and
is left outside.
Thus fertiliza-
tion has taken
place and the
construction of
an embryo
body can now
begin.
