  • A biology lecture with Fauna! Ceres Fauna talks about how much she likes slime molds while learning how to sail a boat in the Sail Forth game. Nerdy Fauna my beloved. Another peak Fauna moment.

    Slime molds are simply amazing, there was an experiment where the slime mold was connected to a cable, transmitting electric signal from the slime to a music converter and I think transmitting a different signal back to the slime. The slime somehow adapted to this and based on this input output made music with a composer. And it was good music too! It rhythm, it had musical elements, it wasnt just noise like you could think.
    I think the university where the slime remade Tokyos infrastructure actually made the slime formally a professor. Simply amazing how clever slime is.

      Another fun fact about slime molds that boggles my brain is the fact that every single patch of slime mold that you see is not a colony but rather an *absolutely ginormous* cell, a single cell that instead of undergoing mitosis like everything else, just keeps growing and making copies of its nucleus, to the point where 90% of the celular cytosol is nucleuses

    She reminds me of this girl I knew in college. Always talking about theories, biology, and other scientific topics even outside of class. But every now and then, she'll kind of stop talking, because she'll think I lost interest. I never did though. I found it adorable, and her information were also fascinating. I just wanted to listen to her talk because she was so passionate about her subjects.

    I'm pretty sure slime molds are also one of the few rare multi nucleate organisms, meaning that when they do a mitosis and duplicate they don't separate into two different cells at the end but stay as one big cell with many nuclei. This can result in some of the largest single celled organisms on the planet. Some cell types in our body can do this, muscles for example, but they're still one part of a larger creature as opposed to their own thing.

      Fungi, in general, do not like the cold. They like damp, warm, and nutrient rich environments in which they can continuously grow out their mycelium.
      The mycelium (think roots) can stretch over dozens of miles underground and is regarded as the true body of the fungi. The mushrooms you see above ground? Those are just nodes that took in lots of nutrition from a rich area. Those nodes, called "fruiting bodies" are also where spores release from and basically seed the soil with more fungi to grow more mycelium.

    Biorhythms are very common observable cycles in many forms of life. Here, they are quite complex, and take place between mycelium cells, but they appear in every form of multicellular life. Since chemical reactions occur under fixed conditions at fixed rates, there are many reactions that can essentially function as a clock. Particular experiments that demonstrate basic chemical kinetics include the iodine clock reaction, in which colorless solutions of iodine species can mix with redox reagents in the presence of starch to create a dark blue solution of a triiodide-starch complex before cycling again. This happens at a fixed rate, and measuring that rate can inform the exact concentrations present.
    Hope I got this stuff right, it's been years since I studied that reaction specifically.

    another cool fact about physarum polycephalum aka the slime mold, that fauna did hint at, if you stimulate it with electric shocks in specific frequencies, say a musical piece, it can respond with similar frequencies. If you were to amplify the electric impulses and run it through a speaker again, you could actually make out some parts of the music.
    On a related note, the city planning aspect, where it seemed to disagree with the transit system of the UK, has elevated the slime mold to become an honorary prof of a University.
    Now I'd be curious if she had some neat facts about a certain type of sea slug, that could regenerate its entire body, as long as it's head is intact and has access to nutrients. While regrowing it will live off of photo synthesis. Truly the real life Namekians, I might say.
