Dead clever, that. Did you realise that yourself?

Yes, it is  ;D. No, it showed up on my Facebook feed, I would have never thought of it.

I almost said that is wrong, then I realized it uses a format I'm not used to.

I don't understand this...I'm sure it's funny, in a scientific sort of way.  :shifty:

There's a whole new thread just in that first picture! And another, of a different nature, in the second.

The lady is right and wrong IMHO.

If she is right then all life is pollution of natural origin.

I think it's more ironic than funny because, as the endosymbiotic theory goes, all eukaryotes (cells with a nuclear membrane) such as ours and all other multicellular organisms should be seen as "polluted" by her logic.

In summary, the mitochondria were once free living bacteria that got incorporated by other cells very early in our evolution. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of our cells (they produce a lot of spare ATP, an energy molecule) and have their own DNA, which is different from our nuclear DNA.       

Thank you ancient bacteria, without you polluting other cells mulitcellular life might not have been possible! :love:
