#3056: RNA

[In each panel, Cueball is standing in front of a poster. On the poster there is a picture of a double helix (presumably DNA) and some illegible text, although the poster is different in each panel. Each panel has a header indicating the decade in which it takes place.]

1960s

[Cueball has a hand up in an explanatory pose]

Cueball: Life is based on DNA, which uses RNA to make proteins do stuff.

1980s

[Cueball faces towards the poster, with his hand on his chin.]

Cueball: Also, the RNA does some stuff itself, which is weird.

2000s

[Cueball has his arms raised in the air.]

Cueball: There are so many types of RNA. It's doing so much stuff!

2020s

[Cueball has both his hands down]

Cueball: Life is a seething mass of RNA that sometimes uses DNA to take notes.

Person out of frame: What do the proteins do?

Cueball: Errands for RNA.
