More About this Product

What is DNA, and how much of our life is predetermined by genes? In this episode, three segments explore this complex and controversial field. Segments include the following:
  • Discovery Magazine: Genetics: Humans and flies may be more closely related than you ever imagined: so close, in fact, that scientists use flies as proxies for humans to study the genetic component of long-term memory.
  • The Riddle of Life: See the DNA molecule up close and learn how the genetic code can be used to encode messages!
  • Mapping the Human Genome: See how scientists decoded the riddle of human life in the Human Genome Project.
