Dutifully they release their information by forming "messenger RNA" (ribonucleic acid) that diffuses into the body of the cell and manufactures the protein enzymes that bring about metamorphosis. Then the puffs disappear, and the chromosomes wait for other hormones to come along and tell them to release other items of information...
