As the above quo ta tions express, the events tak ing

indi vid u al mech a nisms. The entry and exit from the cell,
which we have exam ined only in fair ly gen er al terms,
show that the entire sys tem has been cre at ed as a whole.

Scientists recently discovered that the amino acids in the voltage preceptors do
not make simple back-and-forth motions, as they previously imagined, but act like
keys turning in a lock. The complex structure of the cell membrane, so difficult for
scientists to unravel, clearly reveals that there is no room for coincidence at the
molecular level.
