To be honest I’m surprised that looking at this picture the first thing that came to my mind was mitochondria and not amoeba. I don’t even remember the last time I had any lessons about biology.
It’s why it’s the powerhouse of the cell.
all I vaguely remember is osmosis and mitosis
(and my hot biology teacher)
Current thought is that mitochondria were smaller lifeforms first absorbed by a more complex cell.
Sounds weird, but also, we have more bacteria living in and on our bodies than we have cells with “our own” DNA.
Makes you wonder where we each really start and stop.
Just wait until you read about eyeballs.
I want to read about eyeballs, do you have a recommendation?
