Genome complexity: DNA 3-D importance in replication (Introduction)

QUOTE: "'If you duplicate at a different place and time, you might assemble a completely different structure," Gilbert said. "A cell has different things available to it at different times. Changing when something replicates changes the packaging of the genetic information.'"

DAVID’s comment: Just as Shapiro shows, DNA can be edited by cells. The implication is that this ability was present when bacteria appeared early in evolution. 3-D DNA is a major key to the amazing variations in controls DNA can exert just by its own 3-D relationships and how they change. Just where are the instructions to guide DNA contortions? Probably in other parts of the specific DNA. This is obviously key evidence as to how as few as 22,000 genes make a complex human.

If different structures result from duplication at a different place and time, we have a clear indication that evolution (= changing structures) is heavily dependent on place and time (= the current environment). We then go back to your belief that all the instructions for all the undabbled changes were implanted 3.8 billion years ago, and to my alternative hypothesis that somewhere within the cell/cell community is an autonomous intelligence (as championed by the same Shapiro, and possibly invented by your God) which enables it to change itself in accordance with the needs or opportunities that arise from the current environment.
