Hello there I am Sørensen-Hygum, coauthor of one of the papers you cite. I just want to say that I am very happy and impressed with your video. It is a really great feeling to see my research become part of an educational youtube video. I am really proud of that scanning electron micrograph of Echiniscoides sigismundi and seeing it reproduced makes me happy.

I like that you are able to make research, both mine and other’s, more accessible by applying humor and more everyday language than we can get away with in research papers. In particular it made me extremely happy to see you thank us for publishing under a CC license as doing so was a decision that I had to push a little bit for and one that cost my supervisor a lot of money.

I do want to raise a few points. You state that tardigrades can dry out for decades and this is almost certainly true, but it is also somewhat misleading. It is true in that a few tardigrades may well recover after such extended periods but there is currently no solid proof of it. Note also that when I say a few tardigrades, I really do mean a few, dont expect to put 100 dry tardigrades into storage for 30 years and get 100 live ones out, you will be lucky to have 1 live animal after such a long time. However 1 live animal is enough to found a new population if the species is parthenogentic!

@thomashygum5310

3 жыл бұрын

I would also like to add that the paper of mine you cited actually demonstrates that drying on a glass surface is extremely toxic to Echiniscoides sigismundi(a heterotardigrade) likely because of fundamental interaction that applies to other tardigrades too. I have done some experiments demonstrating that the same is true for Richtersius coronifer(a eutardigrade), though the results have never been published.

@scout360pyroz

@@thomashygum5310 do you suspect the glass alters the chemical/protein preparations the tardigrade makes, or do you think it might be altering the behavior(movement, evaporation) of the water to make it dry out faster than the tardigrade can adapt? I would think the depressurization in space would cause far more rapid evaporation of the water, and I dont know of many organic friendly chemicals that interact with glass, but off the top of my head those are the possibilities that spring to mind.

There’s a scientific hypothesis (though not consensus) that tardigrades came to Earth from astroid. Which does explain why they’re in their own phylum (which if you know taxonomy means they’re so distantly related to everything they had to get the level just under kingdom). Though this is contradicted by the fact that they have DNA which evolved on Earth and life outside Earth likely would use a different genetic material. A computer simulation found over a million different possible alternatives to DNA and RNA.

All men are guilty of sin. Repentance means to turn away from your sin. For example, if you are a liar you stop lying. Repenting is not just saying sorry, it is saying sorry and not continuing to do that sin. Sin is what separates us from God. God sent his son Jesus to die for our sins. Meaning Jesus took the punishment for our sins on the cross. If we believe on Jesus our sins can be washed away, and God will remember them no more. If we reject the son of God and continue in sin we will be under Gods wrath(hell fire). Repent today and believe on Jesus Christ, and recieve the free gift of eternal life.

Tardigrades are awesome! My second favorite animal. First is Octopus. Behind is Blob Fish. Did you do a video on blob fish?

WIsh I could like this 100 times! Tardigrades are one of my favorite animals, right up there with Octopuses (Octopi is easier to say and more pleasing to the ear, but, oh no, can't have that), tarsiers, and Slow lorises (the only known venomous primate). Tardigrades are nearly indestructible. Much more hearty than cockroaches. As you stated (briefly), they can be dehydrated, frozen, deprived of oxygen, exposed to lethal radiation, placed in the vacuum of space, and still come back to life even decades later. I live in the Pacific Northwest where we have a lot of moss. Have to remove it from the roof, but we let it be most everywhere else. I probably have a colony of many trillions of Tardigrades . So, if you have moss on your property, you're a Tardigrade farmer! Just let it be.

I’m studying entomology in college right now, and honestly it’s crazy how many structures in the tardigrade are the same/similar to ones in insects

Another cool fact he didn’t mention is that Tardigrades are born with the same number of cells they’ll have as an adult. Their cells just... get bigger(?)

How do I get to heaven? Will my good deeds be measured against my bad deeds? Do I need to be a good person to go to heaven? How do I know if I'm good enough? Well the bible says no man is good, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. So how do we get to heaven? Answer: By believing on Jesus Christ who took the punishment for our sin on the cross. There are no amount of good works we can do to achieve salvation because salvation is a free gift of God. We need to humble ourselves, realize we are sinners and that we need a savior. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave his only son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
