Missing Words
In the dawn of time, life's mystery lies, In strands unseen by the human eyes, In the heart cells, where secrets keep, Watson and Crick began to seek.
With paper and pen, they drew the line, A helix, a twist divine, A dance of bases, A T, G and C, Unlocking the code of destiny.
Oh, the double helix, spinning through time, Unravelling secrets, oh, sublime, From the heart of the cell to the of the sky, The code of life, soaring high.
Chargaff's rules whispered in the night, Bases pair, and the was right, Adenine with thymine, guanine with cytosine, The clear, a design unseen.
X-ray beams through the crystal clear, Franklin's images brought the structure near, Watson and Crick, saw the light, In the helix form, life's guiding sight.
From the simple code, a symphony, The human genome, legacy, With every sequence read, a door unlocked, To hands, the future docks.
Gene therapy, a beacon bright, cures in the darkest night, From the tiniest cell the grand design, A future of health, our genes align.
With every twist, with every turn, New hopes rise, fears burn, In the dance of A and T, and C, Lies the promise of what we can be.
From Watson and Crick to the future's gaze, In dance of genes, our anthem plays, The double helix, tale of light, Guiding humanity through the night.
Congratulations! You got all the answers correct!

Oh, the double helix, spinning through time, Unravelling secrets, oh, so sublime, From the heart of the cell to the edge of the sky, The code of life, soaring high.
Chargaff's rules whispered in the night, Bases pair, and the fit was right, Adenine with thymine, guanine with cytosine, The patterns clear, a design unseen.
