The Undying Hydra: A Freshwater Mini-Monster That Defies Aging | Deep Look

I just revisited my childhood after watching this. We had a whole section on hydra in biology but I did not know that hydra ate bugs

[@prajnapratyusha1213]

Exactly same here. Even I thought hydras eat algaes, bacteria like amoebas do. This fact was such a new thing for me 😳

[@darrellcook8253]

I did my 9th grade science and biology paper on that way back in the early sixties. Most of my classmates couldn't believe that they are essentially immortal. Like the ameoba which is one huge immortal creature, it's all of one clone that's divided itself since the first life appeared on this planet. Not even genetic drift occurred with both of these critters. So they are hundreds of millions of years old.

[@Zaxares]

After that blender experiment... Now I'm wondering what would happen if you got multiple hydrae, blended their bodies together so their cells were all mixed, and then left them to regenerate. Would the cells know how to migrate back into their original bodies, or simply form a hybrid organism? Do such simple creatures even have an immune system capable of differentiating between themselves and another hydra?

[@Cam1417-TK]

The UV experiment was so impressive to watch, thank you!

[@suyci]

I am going to be a total nerd and correct you. The original Greek mythology surrounding the hydra wasn't that multiple heads regrew just that the heads never stopped regrowing.. and were spewing toxic gas and blood everywhere. It may seem insignificant but the moral of the story changes completely. In the original story it was all about being clever and working your way through known steps in order to conquer any ordeal no matter how difficult a task may seem. The "modern" version is all about teaching you that fighting only results in a more powerful enemy, only reaching the core of the problem and stabbing at it will help.

@@KQEDDeepLook there was also a time when mainstream science supported blood letting. There are many accredited scientists who accept the logical conclusion. Please look up Dr. James Tour, Dr. Stephen Meyer, Michael Denton, Dr. Michael Behe, Dr. Mary Schweitzer. All are accredited scientists who have conclusively debunked Darwinism and embrace theism. Darwinism is patently unobservable, untestable, unrepeatable, untenable faux science. So again, thanks for not including it in this video.
