genetic communication

Genetic communication refers to the way information stored in DNA is transferred within and between cells, guiding their functions and behaviors. This process involves genes being transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), which then directs the production of proteins—the building blocks and workhorses of cells. These proteins influence cell structure, function, and how an organism develops and responds to its environment. Effective genetic communication ensures that cells operate correctly and adapt as needed, maintaining the health and functioning of the entire organism.
