Your genome, every human’s genome, consists of a unique DNA sequence of A’s, T’s, C’s and G’s that tell your cells how to operate. Thanks to technological advances, scientists are now able to know the sequence of letters that makes up an individual genome relatively quickly and inexpensively.
These five lines are called a staff, and a staff operates on two axes: up and down and left to right. The up-and-down axis tells the performer the pitch of the note or what note to play, and the left-to-right axis tells the performer the rhythm of the note or when to play it.

And our brains do all this work in the split second between when we first hear the music and when our foot starts to tap along.

To me is one of the most excellent, fun and adorable example of science education entertainment. The video is simply explains Chemical Reactions with common examples of the student’s activity everyday.
