The microcosmos is not always a graceful space. Sometimes an organism just needs to get around the way it gets around, even if that means looking like a swimming elephant head with a truncated snout at one end and a rat tail at the other.

The male narrator is MUCH better
UtooB has chosen not to play your video. I've gone through shit now trying to watch your vid and at this point I don't even care about it.
Go utoob, kill the base!!!
@@t16205 yes, 100% agree.
@@v.prestorpnrcrtlcrt2096 This one sounded like a woke south park character.
They take the 'write drunk, edit sober' idea to a whole new level.
The script and narration of these is top notch, perfectly matching the stunning visuals of the otherwise invisible world around us. One of my favorite channels since it was first announced by Hank.
We need a Microcosmos video game, select your microbial community and conquer your environment
So....the early stages of spore?
@@ZombieLogic101 yeah, with community warfare based on how you could do it in reality.
Microbial Kerbal Space Program/Spore.
Hmm graphics inspired by microscopy would be pretty unique. Especially if you don't make it cartoonish
There was an old flash game way back in the day where you had to play as a an animal cell. You had to manage all the different organelles and keep them from being damaged by viruses. He also had to manage your cell's energy, ATP,DNA and RNA synthesis, managing waste ECT. It was very in-depth. There was even a story too. Something about a planet full of platypus people sending a cell off into space because their plan is going to be destroyed by a asteroid.

Thanks to the guy who does the slides . Very fun to see live organisms.
Surely you mean James, master of microscopes.
Nice little guys again.
I love this channel so much, I get to learn about creatures I never knew existed. Keep up the great work.
Am I the only one that finds the bodonids kinda cute 😅 their little elephant noses and rat tails
Well these are cute! I like them living their lives and enthralling us through the great work of this channel's people.
I like your profile picture
@@terminus9897 I like yours too. Something about it...seems so familiar.
Those little microbes have so top tier gear!
Thank you for taking us on this journey! It's always fun and joy seeing nerds like you charing such things with others and educate them that way :)
"You are a flagellated protists!" is my new favorite insult!
Could it be that DNA instructions are compressed information and when its uncompressed to RNA it makes sense? Like if you zip a txt file and look at its binary, it won't look like a txt file anymore but gibberish until its uncompressed again
In a sense you can understand it this way but right now, as stated in the video, we understand that RNA editing allows for an extra step of control in the process of making proteins and other active molecules such as regulatory RNA. Even your cells use a method of RNA editing to remove sequences of DNA that do not code any elements of a protein yet are right in the middle of it's coded sequence. This allows cells to build more proteins then they have genes for by chosing to skip or include coding elements of the protein's sequnce.
Kindly put the technique of microscopy used next to scale , it would be really helpful for us students
Finally, rotifer gets to be the big scary one.
Truncated snouts and rat tails? Sounds like fashion in the late '80s.
Great another micro-creature I find adorable. Add it to the favorites...
I like Bodonids They have so much to give to life
Thank you for your like be safe and God-bless
Great to hear this lady's voice again.....informative & soothing. Thank you!
Thanks for the awesome content and great video!
Thank y'all for making the soundtrack purchasable
I love this videos but I'm sorry to say you might be better if you slowed down a little! This channel is a way to relax for a lot of people ^^'
I feel like you didn't explain the chainmail at all? Like what is it, what does it do, why is it there?
Thanks. I'm looking at all the gushing praise wondering if I'm the crazy one. We'll be shadowbanned now
I assume it’s just a little guy with a very very messy DNA, looking like a chianmail.
Protection. Makes it hard to damage and eat.
Agreed. It'll be a fun Internet research trip for me, though.
That's the thing. We still don't know much about it. This exists to foster research about it. It can be easy to think that everything scientific is all figured out, but science isn't just about the final results, science is the improving and refining of information aswell as the persuit of topic that we know practically nothing about, and trying to find new questions even.
With such good image quality, it’s fun to use CZcams’s zoom feature to see the little guys on x0.25 speed

That sounds a lot like how information is conveyed through language.
"I not need to wright words well for you understand what me mean."
The above sentence was technically nonsense, but I'm sure you were able to decipher a coherent message.
Maybe we just don't understand the language well enough to fill in the gaps.
When you stare into the microcosm the microcosm stares into you.
😅
"It doesn't know why we've been looking at it..."
Tried giving them names? Talking to them?
i love the touch of existential nihilism there at the end
Glad we’re delving into this world (that honestly was only recently discovered in terms of history)
Particularly interesting case, but I don't think we should extrapolate...
The microcosmos is huge
So... Medieval microbes then?🤔🤣
Wow, that DNA structure is fascinating - and I love the philosophical musings and actually deep questions that you get into in this episode. ❤❤
"Sees ad" me: heck yeah they got that coin
Who's the weird little tentacle boi in the center at 1:25? I'm beyond fascinated by how the little fella maneuvers with those noodle legs.
(Possibly not proper technical terms)
Possibly not indeed
@@Cocainepreworkout On the positive side "tentacleboi lilnoodlelegs" might be available as a name!
@@ThatFreeWilliam maybe they should start letting you change the official names to things like that. Would definitely get more of our youth hooked on science at an early age ;)
@@Cocainepreworkout I tried to change Jumping Spiders to Octokittens a while back, but the Wikipedia editors weren't having it. Might be more than a one person job!
I have probably a stupid question lol. The Microscope views in the videos...are they sped up at all or is that in real time? I have always loved Biology and Microbiology.
Does the DNA function as armor?
It does not, except maybe in a subtle way against mutations? It sits on the inside of the mitochondria and does other fun physical things.
Love this series❤
Always fascinating!
what are those straight sticks? Some of them look like they're segmented or dividing.
Wonderful commentary and episode! Thank you!
Early germ gang!
Cool.
Pom pom pom pom pom pom
Did anybody else think “chain letter” when they saw “chain mail” and get confused for a moment?
Can you show us actual microscopic imagery of DNA and RNA, and show us where the RNA transcriptor is, please?
chain mail?
I love the channel, but... sorry, I love it just a bit more when Hank does the narration. 🤷♀️
Is James even real👀
What's real?
Beside tue fact of its existence, do we know anything about the "chainmail"?
It's protective
Theres a lot of research on the "chainmail" kDNA, since it is found in human parasites. We know that the structure (is it linked, unlinked, how many circles?, how is it (not) linked?) is species-specific. We also know that the kDNA is often bound to the flagellar motor which might allow for torsional sensing? We know that the replicative process is a bit of a nightmare and is probably a drug target. (also a lot more)
Really I think its fascinating but still mysterious and I recommend reading any recent review article that comes up when you google "kDNA".
Chainlink DNA within cells, interlinked, within cells, interlinked…
Nice
It does not know, but it does do as it is told. Self editing or allowing errors to go through as it is directed to do. It can not choose between good and evil. It does not know what those things are. It is essentially a just a thing that does its job and has no knowledge. It does not know when its time to end comes.
I choose to make this comment because I can. I am different in that I know good from evil. I can make a choice for me. I can not interfere with others. I can thank that which made me to do what is good as opposed to evil.
I love your guys channel but.... I want to see interesting visuals and an explanation of what we're seeing, especially in the context of broader biology and in relation to our own existence. This video had a kind of passive, uninteresting visual background and a nerdy audio dissertation; would've worked if there was a close up of this "DNA chain mail" and seeing it function.
I don't think the word dogma nor the concept behind it should be part of science if we continue the scientific method in a critical rationalism fashion.
Yeah, the person who coined "cenrral dogma"Francis Crick said he didnt know what dogma meant when he said it. I think he meant to say "theory" or something else but said dogma to be **dramatic** (if you know, you know).
Who comes up with all those names..?
While these videos are good. I prefer the chill slow, less informative/fast talking early videos. Nice way to wind down and a great change to the same ol same ol of the other channels.
❤ kabbalah and d.n.a.maps..quabbalah,cabala...and 24 spellings of kabbalah of the elfin wiccan kind and turtle shell with tortoise shell prophecies since 1,000,000B.C.e.,.❤
You are mistaken. It knows. It understands. It is watching us. Be afraid.
So we're just supposed to automatically be ok with the decision to get a new narrator? No one consulted with me about this.
Who are you?
I wonder if "armor" might have been the original use of DNA?
What would this armor protect? Something alive has DNA... This is a Catch22.
Sorry.... but where is our usual narrator!? (Nothing against this one!)

Funny title, pleasant commentary, and lots of easy-to-understand related info. Great job getting a cool video done without throwing in that evolution pseudoscience. Thanks guys.

"Sounds" more like unscientific, literally.
Whut?
Can y’all work on the personification and general fluff of these videos? I’m into science, not philosophizing what the microbes think.
in other words, a biological qubit
