Giant Microbes Chromosome Gene Original Plush Soft Toy Educational Gift 21cm

Think of yourself not as a person, but as a city made of little plastic building blocks. You, yourself, are the city, a colossal whole created of many little parts. Each building block, in this metaphor, would be the DNA, the genetic instructions that form the most basic element of life. But there is a stage between the individual building block, and the city as a whole… the individual buildings. These collections of individual DNA, bundled together, would be a Chromosome, bundles of multiple strands of genetic information that ensure the DNA within is correctly replicated. This Chromosome Plush by Giant Microbes are a highly informative reminder of one of the most important elements in the very basic mechanics of life. Chromosomes, in essence, help to regulate the replication of cells; each one contains a bundle of different strands of condensed DNA, and their existence helps to ensure that each new cell contains all of the correct genetic information they need to survive, and fulfil their intended purpose. Now, you can learn more about this vital genetic element in the comfort of your own home! These plushes have a scientifically accurate design, and even come with an array of facts about their specific cell, and are the perfect gift for scientists, teachers, students, or anyone with a healthy sense of humour!
