Term
Where does protein synthesis occur? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
How does the process of protein synthesis provide strong evidence of God? |
|
Definition
Because the information in the DNA is much and the process is complex and had to be designed by a source; not merely a coincidence. Scripture tells us the source is God |
