Por qué se dice: ""Lo que le sucede a un individuo tiene su origen en una célula""
galina1969 [7]

El DNA controla la composición genética y física del individuo, coordina su comportamiento y garantiza que se adapte a lo largo de su vida. Esto hace que la célula sea crucial para la vida de un individuo. Los atributos físicos en el individuo, como la altura y el color de la piel, son controlados por la célula, mientras que también controlan los atributos genéticos, como el genotipo y el grupo sanguíneo.
