I am amazed that a Japanese movie/video game/book called "Parasite Eve" made me interested in this subject. I always find it fascinating when different forms of organisms work together... It gives me hope for us as humans.

[@winniethepooh8766]

one of them engulfed the other. the mitochondria sound kinda like slave workers subjugated by the cell

[@Shimamon27]

@@winniethepooh8766 Yeah, it took me a while to realize it's more akin to what people do with livestock... It's disturbing. Can't have nice things now, can we?

I love the voices of these videos

[@zangetsu6638]

there is often severe muscle wasting in people with cancer. one theory is called: Nuclear Meltdown, and it concerns mitochondria degradation. Michael Wiggs and his crew made a mouse model with implanted cancer cells and monitored the health of the mouse and many indications for four weeks, which is when the mice would be euthanized so they didn't die from the cancer. many of the indicators they monitored did NOT show a steady degradation, but instead would show minor degradation for the first three weeks, and then a LOT of degradation in the fourth week, and the mouse would be near death. But, when they monitored mitochondrial function, they noticed it degraded in a stepping stone fashion. this indicates that mitochondria show early changes we can investigate to see if we can intervene in the degradation process before severe muscle loss becomes deadly.

[@esmeraldaelhamzawy9114]

[@qianxuetian3391]

Thanks so much!!! It's awesome!

[@jeff-onedayatatime.2870]

I agree. My mind is boggled, I only recently found out mitochondria have different DNA than the cell nucleus. Somehow, this explains the origin of life. :)

so,should we stick to the old model of the mitochondria or leave it and understand the new one?

[@davidmckayii752]

How does the synthesized stuff go into the Mitochondria? Is there a membrane? If so, what's the process, involving hypo and hyper?

[@moneyscience6832]

please make one video about plastids in detail.

[@weshouldsaveourselves6780]

such fine tuning and intricacy. to say it doesnt have a creator and that it came from chaos is just very illogical. it is indeed a sign we have a creator. us, the cells we are made of, the universe. Allah creates as He wills

i have a question regarding the cell transportation.. am i just want to ask .."how mitochondria transport ATP to the carrier protein in order for the molecule get outside and inside of the cell membrane from low to high concentration??

[@tjshorts6167]

Mitochondria is the location of oxidative phosphorylation.

[@Shigellosis]

Alright mr. Fancy pants no need for excessive jargon here

[@ramesh123443]

Electron microscope mitochondria( shown in the video) is round because it is daughter mitochondria, where as mature mitochondria is elongated.

How did the cells work before mitochondria took residence?

good job mate it may not from our ancestor originally, this mitochondria might just be eaten by mistake

[@yuchenliu7428]

Agree +1

[@stefanbabel9354]

Would it be possible to modify the mitochondira to accept electrons from a metal wire instead of using NADH ? This way all cell could be powered without nutrients but with pure electricity. Is there any research on that ? :) Just curious.

[@riyachaudhary7805]

Sir oxysomes is also known as F1

[@vivachristorey7622]

I understand thriving mitochondria have not been found outside a cell. I suspect that they have not been removed from a cell and have survived.

[@zeno7836]

Anthony Lusich the mitochondria is like a piece of history, they are ancestors of current day bacteria that descended from mitochondria that thrived. You cannot remove mitochondria from a cell and expect it to live, they are dependent on the cell for glycolysis in order to produce the energy we harvest.

Is how are u explaining is different from explaining it as Histology?plz answer

[@carishollins856]

if you poke a hole in the inner membrane of the mitochondria so that proton could move freely acoss it, what would happen to the proton distribution?

Good stuff. Im a dissabled animator who has a whole gang of lowly paid animators...i know how much adsense pays...but i could perhaps start small....or just chop up animation modeling methods. Thanks for work. D

[@mechikaboombayah4960]

11:40 What he said about the spermatic mitochondria being dissolved by the egg... That's not what happens. Actually during fertilization only the nucleus of the sperm passes the layers of the egg and enter it. The tail and rest of the part of the sperm gets dissolved in the uterus (or more precisely the ampullary-isthmic junction of the fallopian tube cuz fertilization takes place over here)

[@digocr]

Where can I find more about mitochondria being a live individual itself with its own DNA? I'm reading Dawkin's Ancestor's Tale and was shocked to read this (as I totally forgot from school). I had already accepted there is no "I", but this states we are not even a single individual, but a group. :O
