    Such mechanism do also exist in various procariots. Bacteria for instance grow in biofilm and they form capilarity channels in order to save the deeper layers and allowing them to get substrate. This slime mold resembles a biological neural network growing and in mathematical aspects it seems to use breadth first search algorithm and sometimes change it into depth first search algorithm (they have opposite search logic). Very interesting.

  • @gqmanultra4873

    I really want to know what's going to happen if its getting eaten by an mouse as example.
    will it eat the mouse from inside or is it going to "DIE" if that is even possible and if the mouse can eat it what effect will it have to the mouse does it give the mouse nutrition or something else.
    Also can it heal sicknesses like an bacteria infection or clean open wounds from flesh eating bacteria so much question I have......

    I wonder what drives the seemingly rhythmic pattern at which they pump. I wonder how rhythmic it is. Resembles a heartbeat, but what drives the rhythm without muscular contraction? I wonder if they use sodium/potassium pumps like cell membranes in multi cellular animals. Do they use/generate ATP?

      @AngDavies 4 года назад +6

      Same mechanism as muscle contraction, nearly all cells have the same proteins inside them as muscle does. It's how they change shape and move about/engulf things. They're just not so heavily adapted to it as muscle cells.
      Because the way scaling works with small things being stronger with respect to their weight, I've heard it said that an amoeba could do the eauivalent of tearing up a tree

    How does it know, which branch has to be reinforced, does it communicate the information from the food source back to the origin mass and it then decides or is the decision made on spot and it reinforces the branch from the food source outwards

    • @smaakjeks

    Quite remarkable! However, is it inteligent or simply fanning out wildly untill it reaches a food source? Again, not saying isn't facinating, just posing the question. If let's say one it found the food it had to creatively capture it before it could eat it then maybe... In these cases the food is inanimate.
