The genetic flex competition nobody asked for! Human DNA contains roughly 3.2 billion base pairs, fruit flies have about 175 million, and viruses are sitting in the corner with just a few thousand. It's like comparing your mansion to someone's studio apartment to a literal mailbox. The virus is just happy to be included in the conversation! Next time you're feeling inadequate, remember you've got 3.2 BILLION base pairs of genetic code - that's a lot of biological baggage to carry around!
