Yes and no, at the same time. Everything is far more complex than how I just explained it to you, and I promise I will point you to books on the matter once I can find some that are decent. There is a separation between the species, and it has to do with chromosomes, which are the larger structures that DNA is organized into within the nucleus. Human beings have 46 chromosomes - cats, for example, usually only have 38.
When it comes to DNA, there are no set standards. In fact, mutations of the instructions may occur, in some cases even unpredictably. And like I told you the first time we spoke, again there are three different types of result - a benign mutation, resulting in the organism achieving better health and overall performance; a malignant mutation, leading to debilitation and illness; and one that is neither one or the other, or the two combined.
I make those mutations happen. I can reprogram the instructions that discipline the functioning of life, and transform it into something else. Most of my subjects look nothing like they were when I first met them.
Let's assume for a moment that, looking into your DNA, I will be able to find the exact genes that correspond to your... wild euphoria and burst of energy in response to the stimulus of an explosion. And suppose I could implant those same genes onto a creature analogous to your Electrode and I had the power and means to make as many of these creatures as I wanted. Can you predict what the result would be?
