DNA


Each human body has roughly 100 trillion cells and each cell in that body contains within its nucleus thin strands of DNA. Unravel all the DNA strands from all of those cells (in one human) and string each of those strands altogether end-to-end ... it would reach from the earth to the moon roughly over 473,000 times.

My own bodies got a 100 trillion cells? Woah!

Lemme see...in numbers that is something like: 100,000,000,000,000 

For example....

A million is 1,000,000

A hundred million is 100,000,000

A hundred trillion is 100,000,000,000,000

Woah!
