How Body Heat Affects DNA in the Bloodstream

Scientists wanted to see how body temperature changes can impact DNA floating in the blood. They looked at two ways to heat up the body: from outside (like a warm bath) and from exercise. First, they thought about how DNA in the blood changes when the body gets warmer. They wondered if this DNA cou
