  • Venom is an iconic Spider-Man foe gaining power from the alien symbiote, but what is it exactly? Is it more parasite or something else? Kyle takes a closer look on this week's Because Science!

      Correct me if I'm wrong because I don't keep up with a lot of comic plotlines in recent years, but didn't the symbiote merely feed off and prolong Eddie's cancer cells? I seem to remember him dying when he chose to let the symbiote free and the cancer took him.

Venom feeds off of the adrenaline cased by Eddie thinking he had cancer. Eddie started working at F.E.A.S.T and he was on stage 4 and about to die but he ran into Martin Li/Mr Negitive and Martin cured Eddie indiarectly with his powers and those powers mixed with the symbiote cells still in Eddie's body and created Antivenom. Antivenom can actually cure all human ailments of the host and others. Antivenom also doesnt have a weakness to fire or sound. The more you know :)

      And we should damn happy we have those bacteria living on us. Otherwise opening our eyes after a night of sleep would be kinda difficult.
      Without the bacteria living at the base of every single strand of an eyelash which eats the dried residue of our eye fluid (tears) these would cake our eyelids shut.
      It would be a fairly thick gunk covering the slit between our eyelids; so thick, in fact, that the muscles of our eyelids would fail to open them. We would first have to rub our eyes vigorously with our hands before being able to open them.

      @Woodledude 5 лет назад +52

      @Ryukenb2k No god is necessary to explain our existence in terms of "How were humans created from starstuff?". We are simply an emergent property of the ideal conditions of our planet. Statistics alone declare that, eventually, life will be created in the right circumstances. It's a matter of the random creation of a self-propagating thing; RNA alone could survive and reproduce in exactly the right environment, and the complex amino acids that make it up can be found everywhere in deep space. And with that little kickstart, you have a seed from which an entire biosphere can slowly evolve, over hundreds of millions or even billions of years - If the right bit of RNA is created. This is, thus far, an unproven, but sensible and testable hypothesis, at least the last time I checked.
      That's not to say that it isn't possible that a higher power couldn't have influenced our existence in some way, or that there isn't an afterlife. I personally believe the universe is indifferent to our actions, and that how our actions affect our lives is what we should focus on. My morality comes from the fact that being kind and good are simply very good general long term strategies, especially in this day and age. Plus, it makes me feel good about myself :)
      And, when my time comes, whether it comes in 60-80 years, tomorrow, or at the end of time, I won't have to worry about anything anymore. That is as much a tragedy as it is a relief; a decidedly neutral proposition. I hope to live as long and in as good of health as I possibly can, and benefit my family, friends, community, and the human race as much as I can, and enjoy life until life is no longer an option.

      Throwing up in reverse would be muscles spasming in such a way that things are involuntarily swallowed - perhaps most importantly, without chewing.

    Life with Venom must be a nightmare, especially when you're an introvert. Imagine not only never being alone, ever. But the symbiote *knows* your thoughts, and your physical state. When you got to sleep, it's there. When you take a shower, it's there. Watching. Judging. When you want to fondue with a partner there's an uncomfortable presence in the back of your mind, baffled by the awkward human mating rituals.
    My point is, Venom would be the worst roommate.

      There is of course the factor that Venom and others of his species do slowly consume their hosts if their hosts don't or aren't able to provide them with enough nutrients via the food they eat. That's what happened to the host of the yellow symbiote, and Venom was also beginning to do it to Eddie- not because he wanted to, but because otherwise he wouldn't have been able to keep himself alive.

    I spent some time of my life figuring out what the symbiote is made of. I came to the conclusion of amoeba with a ferrofluid based cytoplasm, given that ferrofluid is controllable, can kill cancer, and alter minds (sound familiar). Also amoeba can shapeshift and harden (as a cyst layer, (this is bracketception: possible forming the teeth)). There was more but I can’t currently remember it.
    Edit: I remember the bit I forgot, Amoebas possess the ability of endosymbiosis, basically coping genes, (just like the klyntar). I have remembered even more, it would feed on adrenaline and three different proteins which I can’t remember the name of (one being myostatin) and turn them into three other proteins (again I can’t remember the names but foliostatin is one of them)

      @MsDjole 5 лет назад +20

      I think it's more similar to the giant pyrosome, which is actually a free-floating colonial tunicate, in that it is a giant colony using the host cell organization as a base to build on and to feed off of. That can explain why the symbiotes can grow and shrink since single cell organisms cant really shrink and grow, they can only change the shape. Also, that explains why they take some features from the host since the cell organization of the host is the base they use to build. Another symbiote trait that can be explained by the colony theory is that you can fragment it and it can grow and form new sybiotes.That can explain also, how they can grow tentacles and all that if we assume they can reproduce super fast.

      From the strength of regular Spiderwebs, i think just the webs could stop it themselves, he uses quite a lot, and it takes a bit to stop it. It's just be a matter of if his arms would come out of their sockets or the metal would break before the train stopped.
      From the way he holds the webs, the force would be backwards, so his arms wouldn't dislocate, but there'd be a lot of pressure on his elbows, since they'd be being pulled in a direction they don't want to go. But, given that he frequently gets exploded and thrown through walls (just the previous movie the Goblin literally throws him into a building from the sky, and Spider Man just stands back up.
      It'd hurt like fuck (as it does, he passes out after stopping it), but it seems reasonable.

They were so sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of their hosts that they are very easy to corrupt. This is what happened to Venom's Klyntar.

      Survival is more than just "staying not dead", it can also involve social survival such that Eddie can still blend in with society and not draw obscene amounts of attention to himself. After all, being hunted down by Spider-Man constantly would be incredibly draining.
      As for where it displaces itself to, I think given how Venom is depicted chances are it's replacing the interstitial fluids of the host; the miniscule amount of fluid that's between cells. While I wouldn't have an idea how much volume that ends up being - a proper biologist would have a better idea - given that Venom at most gives a small extra layer of goop it seems relatively feasible that the extra volume could fit there.
      Lastly, mutating the host is a pretty easy question - CRISPR has been mentioned several times on the show, which allows for direct gene editing of DNA. Being a goopy alien, it's not _that_ much a stretch that Venom could potentially be fiddling with every cell's DNA at the same time and improving the host's natural resilience.
      In regards to the shapeshifting, I'd imagine what would need to happen is Venom disassembling Eddie's body (perhaps on join, during the initial gene editing), breaking him into an amorphous blob of cells that either entity could control.

    Hey Kyle! People would be surprised how much real world parasites interact with our pop culture and society. As we all know, cats and the internet are as famous a combination as peanut butter and jelly. Our obsession with cats, however, has allowed the spread of a specific parasite, Toxoplasma Gondii. It's only known to reproduce in felines, and is estimated to have infected up to half the population. Toxoplasmosis, the disease attributed to T. Gondii, can cause birth defects, flu-like symptoms, and, although not heavily researched, may be linked to schizophrenia. Talk about "Crazy Cat People".

    No love for carnage? Not even a mention?
    Also, does venom sit on the skin or inside the skin? If outside how does it change its size and color to make itself invisible when not in use? If inside how painful would it be to have venom go in and out of your skin (I'm guessing through your pores) and how does your skin not tear from that much mass entering your body?

    • @kaimagnus5760

      Normally they would sit on the outside of the skin but in Eddy Brock's case he is a nearly perfect host which causes him and venom to fuse as a cellular level overtime. To the point that separating them could kill Brock AND Venom.

Initially, it consumed the original Spiderman costume and replaced it. Later, back on Earth, Peter could instantaneously switch between street cloth to his Spiderman ID.

    My 9-year-old has a question that might be right up your alley - if a two-dimensional object casts a one-dimensional shadow, and a three-dimensional object casts a two-dimensional shadow, then does a four-dimensional object cast a three-dimensional shadow? And if so, does that mean we're potentially the shadows of a four-dimensional object??

      I believe that in physics the other 8 spacial dimensions are smaller and sort of folded. The three main ones are big and obvious, but I don't think that the 4th scales up in quite the way you're imagining.
      Related big exciting science is quantum field theory where everything is an interaction between overlapping pervasive fields (like magnetism). Great accessible video on that is by the Royal Institute (RI) on RUclips, about 40 minutes and posted about a year ago.

      (I know you're asking Kyle, but in case he doesn't see this and you still want an answer) Yes! A tesseract is the 4d version of a cube (like a cube is the 3d version of a square) and if you Google "tesseract" you'll get a Wikipedia page that shows a rotating shadow of a tesseract. We can only see in 3 dimensions so this is the only way we can see shapes like that.

    Kyle fun fact there's trillions of symbiotic bacteria living within you're stomach. These bacteria help in both digestion and in immune response as White blood cells cannot survive in the acidic enviroment. Yeah I know Kyle said the first part in the video but its nice to know that our stemcells when in development can birth bacteria before we are born in a semi viral way.

      Our stem cells can't birth bacteria or they wouldn't be our stem cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells are very different. I think you're getting a little confused. You're coated in a lot of your first microbiome at birth and you're right that it's very important for the GI tract in general. Not really sure what you mean by 'semi viral' though. Viruses aren't even cells. They're genetic material encased in protein.

  • @tonycast7754
    @tonycast7754 5 лет назад +14

    Kyle a couple corrections if I may.
    1) My name is not Crag but I understand the confusion.
    2) Venom being an alien suit is ectosymbotic I suppose but not really. I know it wont really mess up your cool V E N O M with both starting with the letter "E" but in reality the Symbiote lives inside the host not unlike the parasitic spores that take over ants, only emerging to express some trait. In Venom's case the alien suit and super powers. Yes you could say that technically Eddy Brock or Flash Thomson are not "Venom" when not wearing the suit, but this does not mean the symbiote known as "Venom" is not still present within them.
    Be it in the comics, the 90's cartoon, or even the new live-action movie the alien symbiote lives inside the host only emerging when it expresses the related trait(s). Normally this is the suit, but could also be the tendrils used by Venom in the movie or Carnage in most other cases. Being this is the case would it not be more appropriate to refer to V "E" N O M as Endosymbiotic instead if not also?
    As Defined by Wikipedia:
    An endosymbiont or endobiont is any organism that lives within the body or cells of another organism in a mutualistic (formerly called symbiotic) relationship with the host body or cell, often but not always to mutual benefit.
    If we take this definition we can check off several items with the Venom Symbiote.
    1) "Any organism that live within the body of another." This one checks out as I've described above. Though the traits are expressed outside the host's body the actual symbiote lives within them.
    2) "In a mutualistic (formally called symbiotic) relationship with the host body." We can check this one off too. Apparently the alien species venom comes from need hosts to live and thrive and in turn they provide protection and enhanced abilities to the host. Also the name Symbiote is literally right there.
    3) "Often but not always to mutual benefit." In the movie there is a trade off. Eddy offers the symbiote his help in exchange for them only harming "bad guys". I don't want to get too far into spoiler territory here so leave this part at that. Related however is that "Venom was kicked off his planet for not being parasitic enough." This means that his species checks off this item as well.
    Even if this is not "SUPER NERD" worthy I hope to see your responses in the footnotes Kyle. Have a good Afternoon.

    I think that most symbiots are parasites because as you have mentioned on there homeworld it is a rule that a symbiot has to control it's host's mind completely using only it's body similar to scertain mushrooms that infect ants and turn them into "zombies" which is in my opinion one of the best examples of what most symbiots do to there host's.
    Still your video is absolutely great and logic because you specifically speak about Venom who was as you mentioned banished from his homeworld because he chose to life in a healthy symbiotic relationship with his host's.
