      The crazy thing is that they are part of you. But you also have billions of foreign bacteria and organsism living inside of you.

      I was watching a video about electron microscope views of these nano machines. The animation shown here is very much exactly like those images from the electron microscope, this is what they really look like. As he said, so much of this is not understood. We all know that each cell has a copy of its DNA, but what we just saw shows there are thousands of duplicate strands of DNA in each chromosome, why so many? And how are they actually dictating how the cell is built and function? I see it pulling them apart and duplicating them, but I see no wire or means of getting that information to the distant parts of the cell? The more of this stuff I see, the more I can’t believe any of this happened by pure chance or accident. And the power that makes every cell function comes from its mitochondria, and with the electron microscope it looks just like a car battery! Trillions of tiny car batteries are what power us, and allow us to walk and run, and compute and all the things we do.

      @@hindugoat2302 Or maybe it was. Maybe it just takes a lot of minds put together, over time, to be able to understand. Just like the rest of our advanced understanding of the natural world. One person alone doesn't stand much of a chance, but over many lifetimes humans begin to get a bigger, better picture of what is happening.
      But the everyday layman, like me? Unlikely we'll understand much more than a very basic explanation of what things do, and never the how or why of it all. So I guess you're half-right. Most brains will never grasp the complexity, only the fact that it IS extremely complex.
      It's very humbling to me. . . comparable to when I realized the size of the universe, and that we are so very small and insignificant on such a scale; to the point of irrelevance.

    I have a background in computer sciences, and the section at 5:00 rings a bell for me.
    Networks do this all the time, puts together packets and sends them from point *A* to point *B*.
    Then there is a validation process the packets have to meet in order to be considered valid and to eradicate any error.
    So when the little guy is walking over counting the points, and the others are moving along the sides validating the elements, and information BEFORE it separates, it makes perfect sense to me why these processes are there. It's a program. A very complex, 3-dimensional program performed at the speed of a jet engine, trillions of times. And at the end each function is created, fits and connects to the whole, producing - one of us; and keeps us under a program of controls to manage the cellular transformation we undergo in a lifetime. Frankly, breathtaking.

    One aspect of all this that I would like to see explored is the why and how, of these things actually 'walking' along the strands. This seems more mechanical in nature (rather than chemical or reactive), so it begs deeper questions of the mecahinics such as to why did they evolve the process in this way? Do they have joints? Do they carry their energy fuel with them? Can they run out of this fuel and what does that mean for the success of the larger purpose? (Etc, etc) In my mind, understanding the unique ways our cells communicate (and why they communicate that way) are the hidden keys to understanding 'life'.

    • @GMC-qo9xi
      @GMC-qo9xi Год назад

      They aren’t actually showing you evidence of the typical theory of evolution at this level... ask any scientific minded person how that DNA replicator (with error checking) ‘evolved’. What is it based on, or dependent on? Irreducible complexity is part and parcel to the difficulty of Darwin’s theory, as he believed that the smaller down the scale we went (while we were still unable to see what lied beyond the size of a cell), that the more simple these building blocks would be. But now long after we’ve accepted his idea as fact and with mere details to sort out, we are presented with information that doesn’t actual fit with his model at all. Yet cognitive dissonance (or some kind of memory loss/rationalization) quickly fills in the apparent voids, making these otherwise obvious issues invisible-instead of recognizing the glaring problem they reveal. (The presenter here doesn’t even know how to recognize when something he believes has fallen apart right before his very eyes. As all of this, according to those whom he listens to, came from nothing, for no reason, but random happenstance in a non existent chaos, where only some kind of ‘energy’ preexisted. Energy =the capacity to ‘do work’... and that’s all basically they got...)
      To still believe at this time the theory of the seeding sterile soup being struck with (something like) lightning bolts could produce the building blocks for that DNA replicator is not a reasonably sound logic. (The seeding material idea was never sound to begin with, nor is it something that can itself evolve-as they say it’s a one shot deal, never to happen again, with all evidence of it having been ‘consumed’ or used up in the process.) Instead of best viable theories, we’re instead dealing with the power of suggestion... =mind control... who wants us to believe the unbelievable and why? (What forces are at play that we have minds that are controllable by planting certain ideas?) Clearly anything is possible... like literally anything... and if what they say is to be believed, then there is no limit to what the potential possibilities actually are. Truth is stranger than the fiction... (our own desires are what leads us to believe fiction... as it’s merely a preference, like a flavour.)

      1. I'm not quite sure about kinesin (oneof the walking proteins), but a lot of proteins have regions that dont have a single possible conformation, but instead can have space to wiggle
      2. it uses the breaking of ATP, which is floating around in the cell, to power itself
      3. Evolution doesn't really have a 'why', it's just that it happens to work the best, even if there might be a better solution (an example is how vertebrate eyes have a blind spot, while cephalopods do not)

      @@BlinkinFirefly the model that you’re ascribing to is that it is only then a short leap, for space dust (materials, gases, etc.) to then turn into ‘living’ things. We’ve never seen, but for a supernatural once off, the spontaneous existence of material, come from non material, and life to come from non life... to play around with this slow, long, mechanism is dangerous to you mind. You have no logic or logical way to refute it. Except to know that evolution is nothing, in and of itself. It explain nothing of import. It does not explain life, it does not explain ‘the origin of the species’, it merely explain that creation as far as our timeline is concerned, takes time... but the point is our minds are constantly being controlled by forces, minds, powers greater than us, that would like for us to just succumb to our weakness(es)... like for an example to allow for a mere assumption to take place of reality, to take place of truth. To make us not question our existence in a meaningful way... like where we are motivated to try and actually understand how everything came from nothing... material, came from immaterial... and the meaning of such a thing is more important by a very long measure than, to understand the ins and out of adaptation, and whether or not one species can and will actually turn into a completely different one... we are hypnotized and this is why we are meant to help each other to know, the bits and pieces of truth (reality) that we may each and individually ‘know’... (look into what it means to ‘know’ something. It’s not what we are told. It’s actually something much more intimate, like union, communion, etc... It’s actually a bit of rabbit hole as a subject, as it gets into all sorts of seemingly unrelated areas, birth, rebirth, fruit, seed, propagation, maturity, etc... like the idea of being ‘fruitful’-before multiplying.) I’ll leave it at that... it’s meant to be cryptic, but some will know immediately what I’m actually saying. (Flesh give birth to flesh, as spirit gives birth to spirit... but what is spirit???

THAT entitity, the Original Originator, could not have been Designed or Created, as there was no Originator before it. So it MUST have EVOLVED. And if an Originator can evolve, then so can any other form of "life", without an Originator designing or guiding it.
      I have just used pure logic to demolish the notion of intelligent design or creation as being the only possible way for life to exist. While this does NOT say that intelligent design or creation are impossible, it does say that evolution must have worked, or there would have been no Original Originator to Design or Create other life. The alternative is to believe in infinite time and infinite Designers, which is just sheer fantasy with literally zero evidence of any kind to support it.

      @@Turboy65 That's a classic challenge to the Designer idea however, the thing that we're virtually unable to contemplate is that "there was no before, before". Meaning that the Designer/Creator didn't just create all the stuff that now fills the Universe, but also created time. As an analogy, we used to think of time as a constant ... until we learned about time dilation. It is very hard to imagine a nothingness that had no matter and no time. One of the very definitions of a Creator is that of being above/separate from time. One could challenge this by saying that there is evidence in religious literature that the Creator changed their mind. In fact, the Creator is perhaps better understood as a "black box" ie defined inputs lead to predictable outputs without needing to understand the inner workings. So, when a person changes who they are, they shift the inputs and hence get/deserve a different output. One of the defining ideas of prayer is actually a process of introspection and change, not just a nagging session.

      @@Turboy65 that’s hardly “pure logic”. Your tiny comprehension, actually any human comprehension, cannot fathom some having no beginning and no end because everything we can think of is bound by time. A creator is not bound by time, and the intelligence behind the design is in the video you commented on. Even if the universe started in a Big Bang, that was by design. Otherwise the same argument you applied becomes the issue, what was the origin of the matter causing a Big Bang?

That is the kind of closed minded thinking that led to such notable historical incidents such as the Spanish Inquisition. Your closed minded insistence on an organized intelligence as the creator of order is nothing BUT illogical and based on the emotional desire of an infant to seek the comfort of the first god it ever knew...its mother. Grow up.
      The universe is not what you wish for it to be. It does not listen to you. It does not do your bidding. Learn to accept the SIMPLE logic that denies the NECESSITY for intelligence to create order. There is literally not one iota, not one quantum, of evidence that supports such a notion.

    The issue with nanobots has NEVER been the physical limit. It has always been one of information. How does one program these molecular machines? They won't have an onboard computer. They can only perform one task in response to outside provided information (in the form of other signaling molecules, etc.). The problem of life is, at its core, a problem of information. Not chemistry. Chemistry acts to kill cells UNLESS the information exists to drive these reactions in the "wrong" direction (i.e., to states of high free energy and low entropy) when unguided chemistry is constantly pulling cellular machinery in the opposite direction. This is actually why there is pre-programmed cell death in the first place. And why all these sophisticated control, error sensing and correcting feedback mechanisms exist in the cells. But the origin of the information necessary for cells to do all of these things is NOT found in the laws of chemistry and thermodynamics that actually drive reactions the wrong way.

    A Senior Avionics Technicians favourite way of understanding the skin I'm in.
    The human body is made up of approximately 7 octillion atoms (7 x 10²⁷).
    This staggering number is based on the fact that the average adult human body, which weighs around 70 kilograms (154 pounds), is composed primarily of a few key elements:
    Oxygen (about 65% by mass)
    Carbon (about 18%)
    Hydrogen (about 10%)
    Nitrogen (about 3%)
    Calcium (about 1.5%)
    Phosphorus (about 1%)
    These atoms form the molecules that make up the cells, tissues, and organs of the body.
    Most of the atoms are part of water molecules aka metabolic water (H3O2), as the human body is roughly 60%-80% water.
    Over 200 different types of cells in the human body, each specialized to perform specific functions.
    These cells can be categorized into a few major types based on their structure and role:
    Epithelial cells: Line the surfaces of organs and structures.
    Muscle cells: Include skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle cells.
    Nerve cells (neurons): Transmit signals in the nervous system.
    Blood cells: Include red blood cells (carry oxygen) and white blood cells (immune defense).
    Connective tissue cells: Such as fibroblasts, adipocytes (fat cells), and osteocytes (bone cells).
    Stem cells: Can differentiate into various other types of cells.
    Each type has unique characteristics tailored to its function in the body.
    There are @7 octillion atoms (7 x 10²⁷) compounding together to create approximately 37.2 trillion cells.
    37,000,000,000 = 3.7 x 10 raised to the power of 9
    (7 x 10²⁷) / (3.7 x (10^9) = X / Y = (7 x (10^27)) / (3.7 x (10^9)) = 1.8918919e+18
    = (1.89 x (10^18)
    = @ 1,891,891,900,000,000,000 aka 1,891 trillion atoms per cell aka 1,891 trillion Oxygen,
    Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Calcium, Phosphorus
    atoms that make up all the compounds in just one cell and there are @37,000,000,000 = 3.7 x 10 raised to the power of 9 cells in your body, (3.7 x (10^9)
    This number can vary depending on factors such as body size and individual biology. These cells are highly specialized and organized into tissues and organs, with each type of cell performing specific functions to keep the body functioning.
    In addition to human cells, the body also hosts trillions of microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi), particularly in the gut, which can outnumber human cells but are much smaller in size.
