Mitochondria, there used to be a theory of origin. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

According to legend, mitochondria originated from the protomitochondria, a mitochondrial ancestor that was engulfed by another cell, a gram-negative bacterium capable of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and electron transport.

After the promitochondria are engulfed, they are not digested, but form a symbiotic relationship with the host cell, where the host can get more nutrients from the host, and the host can use the energy produced by the host, which increases the competitiveness of the cell and allows it to adapt to more living environments. In a long-term mutually beneficial symbiosis that is beneficial to both the host and the host, the protomitochondria gradually evolve to form mitochondria, so that the glycolysis in the host cell and the tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation in the protomitochondria are successfully coupled.

That is to say, the mitochondria that exist in every cell in the human body are not actually a parasite that has a parasitic relationship with humans, but now for countless billions of years, human beings have evolved to the extent that they cannot do without mitochondria, mitochondria dominate the functions of energy conversion and calcium ion storage in the human body.

And if humans lose their mitochondria, they won't be able to survive either.

For this reason, human beings have even written a novel for mitochondria - telling that for hundreds of millions of years, living things are constantly evolving, and the parasitic life mitochondria in living organisms evolve faster than the organisms themselves, so that mitochondria have consciousness, so at the moment of hundreds of millions of years, mitochondria finally explode, they want to destroy human beings and dominate the world!

The novel has even been adapted into a game, the famous PlayStation exclusive game "Parasitic Eve"!

At this time, when he heard that these mutated organelles were actually mutated from mitochondria, Zhang Heng couldn't help but feel a deep chill, he looked at Yuehua on the side, and saw that Yuehua also had the same expression, so he said with a solemn expression, "You mean, the mitochondria in the human body can really have their own thoughts?" ”

When Yuehua heard this, she suddenly showed a strange look, she shook her head and said, "Your Excellency Commander, you have misunderstood, I don't know if mitochondria have their own thoughts, but this kind of mutated mitochondria, don't you think it's very much like the legendary 'fibroplasma'?" ”

Seeing that Zhang Heng still had a blank look, Yuehua continued, "Fibroplasma, also known as 'Jedi Worm' or 'Force Worm', is a parasite that parasitizes the bodies of all living species in the universe, and their only role is to communicate with the most essential force in the universe - the Force!" ”

"Star Wars!" Zhang Heng's pupils shrank, and he subconsciously spoke.

"That's right, it's Star Wars!" Yuehua nodded and said excitedly, "It is said that the fibriloplasma communicates through the medium of the Force, and if a person has a high concentration of fibriloplasma in his body, he can even "hear" the fibriloplasma confide in him the will of the "Force". As a result, Jedi have "foreboding" of an event, or "feel the disturbance of the Force...... From here, this mutated mitochondria is very similar to the fibroplasma in Star Wars! ”

"If the black man named 'Jim' is called the Awakened, then the mutated mitochondria are the additional sensory organs of these 'Awakened', helping the host to sense each other with the Devil in the environment."

"Just as animals that can sense the Earth's magnetic field, which different species of animals have different ways of perceiving the magnetic field, many organisms such as bacteria and turtles contain a magnetic mineral magnetocrystal, which is theorized to be like a trumpet compass for these animals, helping animals detect the Earth's magnetic field. In some cases, these tiny magnetic crystals also converge into chains in the magnetic field-sensing organs to form a larger compass. Scientists also believe that the visual receptor cells in the eyes of other animals, such as certain birds or salamanders, sense magnetic fields from the outside world. Although the receptor cells themselves are not magnetic, they have a certain paramagnetism and thus respond to magnetic fields. When the cells of the eye sense the external magnetic field, these animals can "see" the magnetic field. ”

Zhang Heng suddenly showed a thoughtful look, he fell into deep contemplation, and said after a long time, "That's right, what you said is very right, we can feel the tremors of the earth in the earthquake, and see the funnel-shaped cumulus clouds in the hurricane weather, if the mutated mitochondria feel the gathering of the magic energy, called some kind of organ of the awakened person, then the awakened person also has the ability to feel the existence of the magic night." ”

"That's it." Yuehua said solemnly, "Although I still don't understand why some worlds can make people have the mutation of X gene, and some worlds are like the Final Fantasy plane, which allows people to have physical fitness beyond ordinary people, maybe it is the reason why the planet's environment is different, but it is obvious that on our planet, after the generation of magic energy, the ability that human beings have gained is this kind of force similar to "Star Wars"!" ”

Zhang Heng took a deep breath, he simply began to rummage through the memories in his mind, he had also seen the movie Star Wars, just because he felt that the technology in that world was too outrageous, and he was not interested in this movie, at this time, when he began to mobilize the memories of his childhood, soon the movie was vividly presented in his mind again, and even every detail was presented with great precision.

"In this way, according to Star Wars, the force should have the power to strengthen physiological functions, such as fast movement, up and down, superhuman reflexes, and so on." Zhang Heng pondered, "In addition, it should also have the ability to move objects with thoughts, the ability to create a barrier to defend against external attacks, and ...... The ability to predict the future. The more he said to the end, Zhang Heng's eyes became more and more solemn, and he raised his head suddenly, "So, I've actually been using the Force without knowing it?" ”

"As far as I know, your power may be a variant of the Force, or another power that is close to the Force, but more powerful." Yuehua shook her head and slowly analyzed, "Your strength is obviously more pure and powerful than the Force, and you have also done a physical test, I have never found the so-called 'fibroplasma' in your body, and you have never been in contact with Moxuan when you once had spiritual power, so I can't guess." ”

Zhang Heng nodded, his eyes burning, "Okay, I won't mention what happened to me for the time being, but the study of Jim's awakened people must not be put down, if it is really as you guessed, it is very likely that the first curse, we are not without the power to fight......"
