Many problems of conservation occur at the molecular-genetic level of life systems. The elementary units at this level are genes represented by segments of DNA (or RNA in some viruses); the elementary events at this level are convariant reduplications of genes. Processes of realization of information stored in DNA involve the functioning of the biochemical machinery of the cell.
