The current sets up a small magnetic field, which allows for the transfer of information through magnetism. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"6px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">These magnetic ones are part of the programming of the biological ones, and are part of the electro-mechanical-chemical system of the human body. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"6px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">The DNA ladder twists because it is magnetic, and thus polarized. The polarized proteins in their coded stranded groups of 12 move in a symmetry that twists in reaction to the attraction and repulsion of the magnetic polarization. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"width: 371px; height: 324px;\" src=\"\/userfiles\/image\/telomere%20elongation.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"><span style=\"6px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffd700;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Telomere\"><span style=\"color: #ffd700;\">Telomere<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"6px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">The end caps on chromosomes are called <span style=\"color: #ffd700;\">telomeres<\/span> who insure that our DNA is replicated without errors during normal cell division.
