- Visualizing the work to achieve a goal (like training for a sport) was more likely to make the participants do the hard stuff as opposed to just picturing the end result.

- The DNA is a long molecule that is about a millimeter long.
- While humans have 46 chromosomes, plants and animals are complex organisms which can contain 50 to 100 thousand genes on many different chromosomes.
- The DNA of such organisms are twisted around bead-shaped proteins called histones. They are coiled tightly to form chromosomes that are located in the nucleus of the cell.
- Every time a cell reproduces the DNA gets copied and distributed to each offspring.
Photosynthesis is a way to store stable energy.
Ancient bacteria used a thermal-sensing pigment called bacteriochlorophyll to detect the infrared signal generated by heat. These bacteria were the progenitors of descendants that could make chlorophyll. This pigment captures shorter, more energetic light wavelengths from the sun and uses them as a source of power.
