what the doctor/author forgot to point out, is that even if we (humans) live in sympiosis with our gut organisms, it can also kill us if it developed in an other part of our body. E-colis for example, one of the main family of baterias in our stomach would kill us if found in our blood.
That was one of my first thoughts too. My best friend when I was a toddler died because somehow her gut E.coli migrated outside her digestive tract and attacked her kidneys. She was three years old, and the doctors had no idea how it happened. Her name was Celeste Picard.

Could be the answer to the Fermi paradox Without this symbiotic adaptation, fast moving and adapting life forms are not possible Which makes intelligent life even rarer Which is why the stars are so silent
Another option: if your society can travel faster than light, why use a communication method that only goes at the speed of light for long distances? It would be faster to have someone travel there in person. Ergo... the period of civilization that emits observable signals would only last until the invention of a method of travelling FTL. Perhaps even shorter, to the point of being able to focus communication signals to a particular target.
which is very close to how the mitochondria actually works. biochemical interactions are kind of too complicated to remember who worked out what so I don't remember the exacts.
Oh good grief, you are right. It is literally genetic for us to pack bond with ANYTHING that does not immediately try to kill us. Seriously we have dogs, horses, cats (kind of), some birds, single celled organisms inside us, what else?

Simply putting it, Life on Earth evolved on a death world, then the death world got a lot more mild to what we know today. Then the sapients rose and discovered nuclear weaponry.
earth has never been harder to survive than it is today...possibly close to literally "today" though my personal guess would lean towards a couple centuries ago when the oceans were still a lot healthier. short version is that while macro-scale life has had something or other smash the reset switch with a damned sledgehammer a fair few times micro-scale life has both gone mostly unaffected by the majority of these cataclysms and simultaneously benefited from the rapid rediversification, in short it has made far FAR more progress in development and has never really stopped getting scarier. really short version: the common cold 65 million years ago would have hit a lot harder than a giant asteroid setting off volcanos worldwide and a few years of black skies, go back a couple more mass extinctions and you even start finding animals that were somehow surviving without an adaptive and/or active immune system, closest thing we have these days is stuff like the horseshoe crab and those use reactive systems that can detect signs of an infection at a few parts per trillion then scramble to completely seal off anything that smells wrong.

Maybe the more extreme a deathworld is-while still being within the realistic capability of its home species to leave the planet-then the more likely a sapient is to evolve from selective pressures that push for empathy, smarts, cunning, and creativity, than it is to come from selective pressures purely for predation and aggression.

Where, oh where ,did this survival of the fittest idiocy originate? It has always been ,genetic survival of the population best adapted to their environment! And if you think we are "tough" as a species ..forget about it. We are incredibly fragile. We die at the drop of a hat. The one thing we have going for us, is that we mutate in every generation. Most are neutral as the experts call them. In other words .. they don't work. The few that do, is what has kept us extant as a species.
Which is exactly what survival of the fittest means. If an organism develops a beneficial mutation it survives to pass it on while one that develops a detrimental one gets killed and doesn't pass on its faulty genes.
'the one thing we have going for us'. LMAO BRO. sweating: not a common trait among mammals. helps to keep our temperature down so we can keep moving/working far longer than our competition..we have that going for us our bipedal nature (alongside overall musculature): allows for long range, accurate, throwing...we have that going for us and those are just the things that i, a laymen, know that we have going for us (and also leaving off our intelligence/technology). with all that said: these stories are all from hte premise of 'what if instead of when we meet aliens, they're all superior to us, we're superior to them'. so like...chill out, its not meant to be scientifically accurate.
You should really find the original humans are space orks post that started this entire genre. People don't realize how ridiculously hardy we are as a species because to us its just normal or some minor adaptation. But it's all stuff that no other species on the planet is capable of.
The xenobiologist must marvel at the human skin and hair. The mouth all the way through the to the anus would astound him (?). Each has its own ecological system in place and can be beneficial or malicious to the human.
Could you do us all a favour and look up how to pronounce some words you don't know how to pronounce? Amoeba, Eukaryotic... it's a bit off-putting - at least to me.

The birds are not spies. The earth is round. There is no war in ba-sing-se. There is no cellular powerhouse.

you had to, right? 😀
Favorite story on why human adaptability is terrifying and awesome.

that, and evolutionary dead ends.. and even aggressiveness more than our own can lead to extinction faster.

We are not an interplanetary species yet, and seam to in love with profits today than survival in a decade

Fun fact the microorganisms in your gut can effect your mood, appetite, food preferences, and more
the gut has a significant nerve connected to it, just the same way our thunb, index, and middle finger all have a significant nerve connection
I like to imagine some amoeba in your gut just goes “hey bitch I want tacos” and that’s why I suddenly wanted Taco Bell this morning
Interesting
That's way to explain why I have a hankering for McDonald's fires at 4:00 in the morning. Lol
.... I love that analogy. "Hey want a sandwich?" lol.

It's funny how framing a science lesson in the context of aliens being baffled by our biology makes it much easier to pay attention to the lecture. 😂
being predispositioned toward teamwork as a evolutionary necessity
Even our cells are pack bonded bro

short version is that while macro-scale life has had something or other smash the reset switch with a damned sledgehammer a fair few times micro-scale life has both gone mostly unaffected by the majority of these cataclysms and simultaneously benefited from the rapid rediversification, in short it has made far FAR more progress in development and has never really stopped getting scarier.
really short version: the common cold 65 million years ago would have hit a lot harder than a giant asteroid setting off volcanos worldwide and a few years of black skies, go back a couple more mass extinctions and you even start finding animals that were somehow surviving without an adaptive and/or active immune system, closest thing we have these days is stuff like the horseshoe crab and those use reactive systems that can detect signs of an infection at a few parts per trillion then scramble to completely seal off anything that smells wrong.

Sorry if I am stupid. But I didn't get it.
Care to explain it.
My takaeay: Mitochondria is the Powerhouse of the Cell!
The human body in itself is a ecosystem an inherently it is fascinating but disgusting
"Mitochondria, THE POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL"
Great reading
This was just one big joke about the mitochondria being the powerhouse of the cell.
