DNA simply: the recipe in every cell, sentence 7

Stretched out, the DNA in one human cell is about two metres long, packed tightly into the tiny nucleus; all the DNA in a body would reach the Sun and back many times.

Who acts: DNA · What happens: stretch out, be, pack, reach · To what, where: two metres, tiny nucleus, Sun

This is a sentence of the lesson «DNA simply: the recipe in every cell» of the biology course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (DNA), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
