DNA or real ones? DNA ones are fixed (scissile DNA sequences), the 
expression of the papillear ones are caused by morphogenesis processes, 
which are based on diverse switching diffusion gradients, which are 
nonlinear. Meaning, extremely depending on particularities in the 
enviroment, divergent system evolution trajectories.
