It just seems like so much of life, or so much of our assumptions are based on the fact that of course, it's got to be DNA, but is the possibility space of self-replicating
molecules
much bigger than DNA, even just DNA with six letters?
We've made
molecules
that work right alongside the natural ones, and I think that suggests that any
molecules
that obey the fundamental laws of chemistry and physics and you can optimize them could do the things that the natural
molecules
of life do.
Blood is the tissue that not only carries cells that transport oxygen, for example, the red blood cells, or fights infectious diseases, but it also carries messenger molecules, hormone-like factors that transport information from one cell to another, from one tissue to another, including the brain.
They are very happy with their balls-and-sticks models of
molecules.
After all, it gives us the rules that tell us how the atoms fit together to make organic
molecules.
To paraphrase a description in the book, he says: At the molecular level, living organisms have a certain order, a structure to them that's very different from the random thermodynamic jostling of atoms and
molecules
in inanimate matter of the same complexity.
Today we know they're made from protein
molecules.
This causes the protein
molecules
to stick to each other, forming clumps that eventually become large plaques and tangles.
RNA is a chemical cousin of DNA, and it allows interaction with DNA
molecules
that have a matching sequence.
Well, in this case, a mole is a concept that we use in chemistry to count molecules, atoms, just about anything extremely small.
There was no clear difference between atoms and
molecules.
Instead, think of water
molecules.
If you pour 18.01 grams of water into a glass, which is 18.01 milliliters, which is like three and a half teaspoons of water, you'll have 602 sextillion
molecules
of water.
Atoms and
molecules
are so small, that chemists have bundled them into groups called moles.
Though the journey was extraordinary, I do need to feel those small oxygen
molecules
fueling my body.
First, the planet needs to be large enough that the force of gravity keeps the water
molecules
from flying off into space.
For example, food made of complex molecules, like an apple, requires a lot of different microbial workers to break it down.
But, if a food is made of simple molecules, like a lollipop, some of these workers are put out of a job.
The
molecules
that we're discovering on coral reefs are increasingly important in the search for new antibiotics and new cancer drugs.
A few fossils even preserved some of the
molecules
that give feathers color.
If we were to zoom in on a salmon, which is a fatty fish, past the organs, past the tissues, into the cells, we would see that the stuff we call fat is actually made up of
molecules
called triglycerides, and they are not all alike.
The double bonds in these
molecules
have a kind of weird property; they're rigid.
Now, even though both of these
molecules
are made up of exactly the same building blocks, they are two completely different substances, and they behave completely differently inside of us.
In a chemical equation,
molecules
rearrange to make new compounds, but all the components should still be accounted for.
When we move our limbs to push back against the water, a part of the water
molecules
can just slide past one another instead of pushing back.
This is because the air expands in volume with less pressure, so the
molecules
have more room to wander around without colliding into each other and creating heat.
It's you and a whole bunch of water
molecules.
Water
molecules
outnumber you a thousand trillion trillion to one.
Rather than simply swishing by all the teeny, tiny molecules, now every single water molecule is like another person you have to push past to get anywhere.
By cleverly flexing their paddle to create more drag on the power stroke than on the recovery stroke, single-celled organisms like paramecia manage to inch their way through the crowd of water
molecules.
