DNA.
It's
hard to imagine in this age of genetic engineering, but scientists in Darwin's
time saw life as quite simple. Cells were thought to be blobs of primitive
chemicals called "protoplasm." But as technology advanced and scientists were
able to peer inside the cell, they discovered something amazing: Every living
thing actually contains intricate, microscopic machines, performing functions
without which life would not be possible.
The
real breakthrough, came in 1953 when Watson and Crick uncovered the structure
and function of DNA — the molecule that programs and regulates cells. It
