It is analogous a Crystal form the structure its template or molecular chain contains information for.


DNA forms the structure its template or molecular chain contains information for.

DNA is much more complex but it works in exactly the same way.

"DNA is much more complex but it works in exactly the same way."

DNA is more complex, but is does NOT process data in "exactly" the same way that crystals blindly replicate.

For one thing, DNA processing is dependent upon the external environment. For another, DNA is capable of creating life. For yet another, DNA can process entirely different shapes and textures...and do so variably over time per the different instruction sets that it is given.
