[In thick German accents]
|
|
If it's ze secrets of life that you seek,
|
Zen srough (through) a mi-croscope you must peek!
|
|
Mendel did vonders just using his eye,
|
But to really see, you must magnify.
|
You can't help but notice ve're nossing (nothing) but cells,
|
But vhere in ze cell does heredity dvell?
|
|
The Nu-cleus! That's vhere it hides.
|
You don't see much until it divides,
|
Then Chro-masomes enter new phases,
|
Split into two, und zat is ze basis
|
|
Of Sexual Transmission vhich olvays engrosses
|
Our feverish minds, but it's only Meiosis.
|
Reducing zee chromasomes fifty percent,
|
So vhen egg and sperm meet at zat blessed event,
|
|
Ze Chro-masomes form one full set.
|
Just two of each kind, zat's ze best best!
|
|
And that new cell begins to grow,
|
Multiplies into an Em-bryo.
|
Ze ex-plana-tion of zis growth
|
Is it's due to a process ve know as Mitosis!
|
|
And zat's vhat our Microscopes helped us determine,
|
In Germany, vhere un ze germ cells are German!
