Chapter 564 Kill It!
"Cells are the basic structural and functional units of organisms, and this concept is universally applicable to all organisms, including single-celled organisms and multi-cellular organisms."
"Cells are the basic building blocks of organisms. Each cell contains a complete set of genetic material and organelles and is capable of carrying out life activities such as metabolism, energy conversion, and signal transmission."
"Well"
Looking at Jiang Xiao and others who looked confused, the doctor touched his nose.
"Can you understand?"
"Go on, we're listening."
Can you say you don't understand?
Doesn't that mean there isn't a smart person among the four of them?
"good."
The doctor nodded and continued.
"Most living things, such as animals and plants, are made up of multiple cells that work together to form tissues and organs, resulting in multicellular organisms."
"For example, humans are composed of approximately 37 trillion cells. Although each cell has independent life characteristics, as a whole, humans embody all the basic characteristics of life."
Jiang Xiao and the other two touched their chins, and they all touched their chins in contemplation in unison, as if they were thinking seriously.
Now it was the Doctor's turn to be speechless.
Isn’t what I’m talking about just the most common and basic biological knowledge?
To be precise, it is the knowledge contained in junior high school textbooks.
So, among these four bastards, no one with a junior high school degree can be picked out?
"A virus is a special form of life that has no cellular structure and is composed of proteins and genetic material, but it still needs to be parasitic in living cells to reproduce, so viruses are also considered part of the cell to some extent. "
The postures of Jiang Xiao and the four others did not change, and the mentally retarded Wang Dayong pretended to nod, as if he understood.
Why are you nodding? Didn't you ask anything?
The doctor is completely speechless
"Okay, the doctor's words have given me a lot of inspiration. If there is nothing else, I will leave now."
Doctor: Inspiration? I haven’t said the important point yet!
"Yes, thank you Doctor Brother for your popular science. Shi Shi feels like she has taken a dip in the ocean of knowledge."
Doctor: At your level as a primary school student, well, at Shi Shi’s age, it’s normal to not understand.
The same goes for Wang Dayong and Niu Jiujie. They feel that it is not as interesting as going to the old man from the history department to see the illustrations in the fairy tale book.
"Wait, don't leave yet!"
The doctor stopped a few people with a dark face.
"To put it simply, cells are the basic units. Cells make up us humans, and viruses rely on cells to survive. Do you understand?"
"Harmful!"
Jiang Xiao and the other two men immediately showed contempt for the doctor.
"Wouldn't it be okay if you just said this earlier?"
"That is, simple problems are complicated, the books I read are useless, and my ability to express myself is not as good as mine."
"I understand, I understand. An intellectual like him who wears glasses just likes to show off~"
Who is this!
"The problem now is that these cells do not need to be attached to cells to survive at all, do you understand?"
"Understood." x4
"to be honest."
"I don't understand." x4
"Let me ask you, cancer cells"
The doctor wanted to go "deeper", but immediately changed his mind when he thought about the IQs of the four people.
"Cancer viruses rely on normal cells in our body to survive. After a person dies, all cells in the body die, and cancer viruses will also die. Can you understand this?"
"This is understandable."
"Oh, doctor, that's great for you to say, don't be so fancy."
"That's right."
Well, the doctor is completely convinced.
"Now let me tell you that the cancer virus no longer needs to rely on human cells to survive. It can become an independent individual and will not end with the end of life. Do you understand?"
"Okay." x4
"Okay, let me tell you again. Now this cancer virus can not only survive alone, but it has also transformed from a virus into a living thing. Well, for example, you can imagine it as a bug, or a paramecium, or you can understand it as a A dog is completely alive anyway.”
Jiang Xiao's brows suddenly stretched, and a light of sudden realization flashed in his eyes.
He looked at the doctor, as if he had grasped a certain key point, and spoke slowly.
"So, what the doctor is saying is that these viruses have evolved to a new stage. They are no longer viruses in our traditional sense, but a new type of organism, a human parasite that can survive independently?"
The doctor nodded, a hint of approval in his eyes.
"That's right, Brother Jiang Shen, you finally understand that these 'viruses' no longer rely on host cells for reproduction and survival. They have become a completely different existence."
After a pause, the doctor added.
"Perhaps it has been like this from the beginning. It did not evolve. It's just that no one did any research on it at the beginning."
Jiang Xiao's face showed a hint of understanding and he said relaxedly.
"In this way, what we are facing is not an invisible virus, but a real 'bug'."
"We may be helpless against viruses, but bugs..." His voice was full of determination, as if he had found the courage to fight: "As for bugs, we always have a way to deal with them."
Wang Dayong and Niu Jiejie next to them also looked excited. Although they didn't understand complex biological theories, they were still very interested in fighting and killing.
Shi Shi even waved her fist and said with fighting spirit.
"Hou Li Crab, it's just a bug, let me do it, I will definitely kill it!"
The doctor shook his head slightly. He knew that the simple thinking of these four people might cause them to underestimate the seriousness of the problem, but at least now they could understand the essence of the problem.
He sighed and continued to explain.
"But you have to know that this kind of 'bug' is far more complex than you think. They may have biological characteristics and adaptive abilities that we can't even imagine."
It’s better to get started and do it!
Including Jiang Xiao, the four of them were gearing up and wanted to fight immediately.
"Don't worry, I have a patient here. Just watch."
The doctor pressed a button, and the silver floor of the ground suddenly cracked, and then a small transparent room rose from below.
The room contained the same medical cabin that Jiang Xiao had seen before at the Medical University, and there was also a very seriously infected patient in it.
"hiss"
The moment they saw this patient, the corners of their mouths pursed subconsciously.
This is not herpes.
But rot
The rotten areas on the entire body were densely covered with white, rice-sized maggots.
The doctor's face looked the ugliest. After all, his mental endurance was incomparable to Jiang Xiao and others, but he still explained.
"Well, I just cleaned up two hours ago. I didn't expect these bugs to grow so fast."
