Hidden in the microverse all around you, there is a merciless war being fought by the true rulers of this planet, microorganisms. Amoebae, protists, bacteria, archaea and fungi compete for resources and space. And then there are the strange horrors that are viruses, hunting everyone else. Not even being alive, they are the tiniest, most abundant and deadliest beings on earth, killing trillions every day. Not interested in resources, only in living things to take over. Or so we thought.
It turns out that there are giant viruses that blur the line between life and death - and other viruses hunting them.

@eVill420 2 года назад

probably, but the problem is the brain-eating amoeba kills you very fast after it's detected, so even if you unleash the GIRUS, it's going to be difficult for them to take all the amoeba out in time.

@Jermain-cz4bh 2 года назад

@@eVill420 what if tons are released into your bloodstream so that when inflammation occurs the giruses flood out too? or maybe incorporating them as a part of the immune system by having the mucus glands also make the giruses safely and incorporate them into the mucus lining the nose

@eVill420 2 года назад

@@Jermain-cz4bh maybe it's possible, but I don't think the Giruses would infect them fast enough, it probably take a few hours for the virus to incubate in the amoeba, giving them enough time to multiply and still kill you. if you somehow injected them in the early stages though, that would work

They eat some of your organs but keep the rest alive and functioning so you provide heat, protection from outside and, sometimes, they use your digestive track to pre-process their food and make it into a nutrient rich slurry....

Best "viral" video i've found. The graphics were great for keeping my ADHD mind engaged and focused while he explained. I watched 2 other good videos on viruses and this one took it a step further. These are helping me understand viruses as part of an ecosystem rather than trying to memorize a bunch of facts, so i'll recall better during the exam. Also, he repeated each term several times during the explanation so i'll remember them better. Thank you!

I've always been amazed by the comparison between the two extremes in size - on the one hand we have space which is so massive and unexplored and incomprehensibly expansive, and on the other hand there is a whole other micro-world which is so small but yet equally unexplored and incomprehensibly expansive. And then there's our normal world just floating in between

@assfuckerthejointpounder5834 2 года назад

How do things without a brain move in reaction to something without it being a chemical reaction

@hollyjaw3303 2 года назад

Because classifying things is stupid at its core. I mean, it's very useful, but when you look at it every living thing is just a marginal variation from another one. All the marginal variations make complexity. So it appears that a flower is something completely different from a giraffe (and it is), so you can classify them. But considering time and numbers, it's all about marginal variations. We think at life like it's a mathematical discrete group, but it's more like a mathematical continuous group

It honestly sounds like the plot of some Sci-Fy movie/story. Its like Life wanted to be its own thing, so Nature gave it the ability to life. But at the same time, the Universe wanted everything to be the same, so it made viruses to make everything return to being very dead. At least, that's my take on viruses and cells.
