Weren't we talking about evolutionary paths? (also it's cool how apparently proteins change and adapt with time in a way similar to DNA but, presumably, using different mechanics)
DNA sites transcribe mRNA strands, which travel from the nucleus through the cytoplasm to ribosome organelles where translation of the triplet code instructs rRNA and tRNA construct a polypeptide.
See, I didn't know that.
All this about genome markers is kinda over my head, to be honest...
But, it is interesting! All life is related in interesting ways, and different in even more interesting ways, and that's what makes biology so fascinating whether I'm educated enough to get the exact mechanics or not.
