The well-known molecular biologist Michael Denton mentions
that biological information to be packed into the tiny volume of the cell
50
nucleus seems to be specifically arranged for human beings. If DNA
did not have this data compression ability, the cell would have to be
very much larger in order to hold irregular DNA strips. But it is impos-
sible for cells to be any larger, because the cell's sources of oxygen and
nutrients are efficient only given the existing diameter of the cell. 51
From that point of view, the cell's size and therefore, its ability to hold
DNA, is of vital importance.
This glorious packaging system is made possible by the DNA mol-
ecule's ability to coil and form long spirals that bend and give rise to in-
tertwined, regular helixes. This packaging technology evidencing high-
ly advanced engineering, can be seen in the nucleus of every cell. By
means of this packaging system that our Almighty Lord created in our
cells, millions of kilometers of DNA "letters" remain contained in a vol-
ume we cannot see with the naked eye.

So extraordinary is the amount of information recorded in DNA
that a single DNA molecule contains enough information to fill a mil-
lion encyclopedia pages. To put that another way, 1,000,000 pages of
data that control the functioning of the human body have been en-
coded inside the nucleus of every cell. You can obtain a better
idea of this amount when you consider that even the 23-volume
Encyclopedia Britannica, has only
