So, its genetic material wouldn't be released and even if it was released, the genetic material is also cross-linked, and so it can't be transcribed and translated or replicated.

不能释放遗传物质,而且即使能释放遗传物质,该物质也是交联的,因此转录和翻译,即复制过程不能进行

We're familiar with polymers, plastics in our daily life; the chairs that you're sitting on are made of a kind of a plastic polymer that is basically an organic chemical that is cross-linked together.

我们应该很熟悉聚合物,比如日常生活中的塑料就是,你们坐的椅子,就是由一种塑料聚合物构成,它由基本的有机化学物质交联在一起

Cross-linked is not the right word-- that is chemically bonded with repeat units to make large molecules so that when you have a bunch of large molecules together they have certain physical properties like the solid property of the plastic that you're sitting on.

交联这个词不确切,应该是由化学键连接的,重复单位构成大分子,当许多分子聚合在一起后,它们就会具有某种物理特性,就像你们正坐着的,塑料一样,具有固体特性
