                   As noted by Professor Gitt, the sphere of operation of the DNA's
               information is very broad. DNA does not determine just physical char-
               acteristics; at the same time it plans thousands of different functions

               throughout the cell, the body's organs and systems. Thanks to the infor-
               mation placed in DNA:
                   *The bones grow in exactly the right place, shape and size. The
               skull, ribs, pelvic bone and vertebrae all have special shapes and thick-
               ness in line with specific purposes. The vertebrae, for instance, possess
               just the right shape for the vitally important spinal cord to be able to
               pass through them. Similarly, the skull has been specially shaped to
               protect the brain, and the ribs to shield the lungs and heart. The bal-
               anced development of every one of these is part of the total blueprint
               recorded in the DNA.
