Because technically there is no such thing as cold
all that exists is heat
this is because heat is the rapid movement of particles, made by friction (to understand why you must delve into physics and some chemistry)
so, when you feel cold, it's really the absence of heat
so instead of "keeping the cold out", which makes no sense at all scientifically, insulation keeps the heat in.

as a side note
the feeling of cold is produced when you come in contact with an object (yes, air counts) that has less heat, or energy, than you do, You feel cold because heat (energy) from your body is being transferred to the environment. This ABSENCE OF HEAT in your body is why you feel cold

There are code which is made up of different chemical sub unit known as base. posses by DNA that helps to to function properly.

represented by letter A, T, C, and G.

3)Biological evidence supports evolution;

In this evidence, details about how evolution can be observed within the physical structures of adult organisms. is provided. It is evidence that involves of structural evidence such as vestigial structure which means an organisms with organs and similar structures with different functions.
