  • 🔬 Microorganisms are tiny creatures that live everywhere, but sometimes it is difficult to get an idea of their size. In this video we will zoom in on a person's arm and get to see their cells and other microorganisms as examples.
    🔬 Note: Each microorganism that appears in the video has been selected with a specific size within the range of possible sizes (e.g.: Tardigrade has been selected 500µm, there are from 50µm to more than 1mm).

      Hi 👋🏼
      Really love all your videos.
      I’d love to see one where the lifespans of organisms (from the very shortest to the oldest) are displayed in some clever way.
      Maybe depicting them as distance with the organisms on a race track?
      Would be animals, plants and microbes as that gives a much wider variation in lifespans 😊

      Yup, todays newest production technology is at 3 nm, but some people claim that's mostly a marketing term and does not reflect the actual size of a node/transistor, which might actually still be around 40 to 20 nm large (gate length?) and is probably not going to get much smaller than 10 nm because of quantum tunneling. So we'll have to come up with something new or just keep stacking with a smarter design. But it will be very hard to keep up with Moore's Law.

    Hence, in a single diploid human cell be it any somatic/living cell or stem cell, the length of entire genome would be 2.2 metres long.

    - Poder de atracción desde el imán mas débil hasta lo que sea que esté en la cima

      Although I have been casually interested in size ratios for a long time, this was also a surprise for me. Especially considering that around 80 billion of them still fit in a brain.
      But of course it fits. It's easy to underestimate what can fit into a volume.

    I think the scaling if off with the first group after the hair, it is not possible to actually see them but your scaling suggests we should see something

      dude, if you would see all your parasites inside body, you would freak out. It's not so important to clean outside, but inside. :)

    Skin cells look big enough to see with the naked eye, if you look very carefully. They're not as small as I assumed, if this video is correct.
