Sulle tracce del DNA
Ambra and Blu are twin sisters who want to know why they are the way they are: why do they have two eyes instead of three? Why do they have light-colored skin and smooth hair? And why do they look practically identical? After shrinking to microscopic size, they’ll explore the inside of a human cell in the company of Pio, a wise chick who is able to answer all their questions. During their fantastic voyage in search of the mysterious DNA, they’ll pass through the walls of the nucleus and meet a novice ribosome, a stubborn repressor, and a giant octopus with a crucial role in cellular division, the centrosome.
