Brain and DNA
Brain and DNA. Computer artwork of a DNA molecule wrapped around a human brain. The brain is seen from the side, and the front of the brain is at right. A molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) consists of two strands of sugar phosphates forming a double helix (spiral). The strands are linked by nucleotide bases (horizontal struts). The sequence of the bases in a DNA molecule is the genetic code that controls growth and development, and is passed on during reproduction. DNA is found in all living things, and is stored in cell nuclei. The brain is a complex organ responsible for human memory, thought and intelligence

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate relationship between the human brain and DNA. In this computer artwork, a mesmerizing DNA molecule elegantly wraps itself around a human brain. The side view of the brain reveals its complexity, while the front perspective highlights its importance in our cognitive abilities. The DNA molecule, composed of two intertwined sugar phosphate strands forming a double helix structure, is depicted as horizontal struts connecting these strands. This unique sequence of nucleotide bases serves as the genetic code that governs growth, development, and heredity. It holds immense significance as it is passed down from one generation to another during reproduction. DNA can be found within cell nuclei across all living organisms. Its presence signifies its vital role in shaping life itself. Meanwhile, the brain stands tall as an incredibly intricate organ responsible for memory retention, thought processes, and intelligence in humans. Through this stunning illustration combining elements of biology and molecular science with artistry and technology, Science Photo Library invites us to appreciate both the wonders of genetics and neurology simultaneously. It reminds us that these fundamental aspects are at play within every living being on Earth – an awe-inspiring testament to nature's brilliance.
