    Even though paternal mitochondria in most cases are wiped out and their mitochondrial DNA tends to not be passed on, an overwhelming amount of the DNA which encodes the proteome of the mitochondria is actually Nuclear DNA, so both parents contribute significantly to mitochondria, the maternal side just sightly more so. The Mitochondrial DNA only encodes most of the Electron Transport Chain proteins and the mito-ribosomes and mito-tRNA, which couldn’t function without the Citric Acid Cycle proteins which synthesize the NADH and FADH2 required for the ETC to work. This isn’t to downplay the mtDNA as unimportant but rather to just stress the importance of the interconnectedness of the genomes both parents contribute.

    "Midi-chlorians in The Phantom Menace are part of a recurring theme throughout the movie, that of symbiotic relationships.[21] They were loosely based on mitochondria, organelles that provide energy for cells; like midi-chlorians, mitochondria are believed to have once been separate organisms that inhabited living cells and have since become part of them; even now, mitochondria act in some ways as independent lifeforms, with DNA all their own. Lucas established this relation with mitochondria, in particular the necessity of midi-chlorians for life to exist, as a metaphor for society; namely, he says all parts of society must get along in much the way the midi-chlorians and their symbiont do.[26]" [source Wookipedia]

    Norwegian here🇳🇴 Finally, this knowledge - both old and new - about mithochondrial function and health, are shared on an "ordinary" TH-cam-channel - by an astrophysicist none the less, in such a simple way, ordinary people are getting aware how important mithocondria are to human health. A circadian, clean lifestyle, is the best way of getting healthy mithocondria, gut- and brain health. I've been working in these fields, and know how they are closely linked to each other in regards to overall human health, also on a psychological, mental, and cognitive level, for about 15 years. But I've never seen basic mithocondrial function described in such a way people can understand. Try attending a medical conference learning about this topic, the wording would sound like gibberish to anybody outside the medical sphere, on such a conference. Anton just saved you from a lot of boring hours - with ONE video. The guy is literally a genious❤ And ppl; please take care of your mithocondrial health; circadian living, grounding barefoot outside - no matter the weather (you can use wool slippers with leather soals in the extreme cold winter season - especially when you have children, they need protection until their bodies are acclimated and used to it) at least 20min a day, spend time in nature, clean eating habits, invested quality sleep, no screens after sunset (or use with protective blue-light blocker-glasses after the sun goes down and the natural light disappears - without, your brain are assuming it is 01pm (13:00) every time you look at the screen. This confuses the brain on such a level, our mithicondria are affected), and working out regularly - having balance between rest and movement on a daily basis. I'm so glad Anton brought up this topic. It is way too important to ignore. Ordinary people needs to hear about the importancy of mithocondria, so I'm hoping he will follow up on this. Gotta love his channel even more, but how that's even possible, I don't know❤

      what does this mean? collective conciseness is an interesting idea until you realize aliens are probably real and also have one. are we (aliens with consciousness included) all experiencing through consciousness? we probably do and will experience again after death in a new brain. obviously you wouldn’t remember anything before you were born and i’m not saying you’d be the same person “reborn” this isn’t reincarnation. you’d be someone else entirely with an entirely different life and brain. this repeats until there are no more capable brains in the universe to experience consciousness

    • @rezadaneshi

      These are new mind blowing thoughts to me thanks to you and Anton. I can speculate only that a soul is not perpetual till it's capable of residing physically in a nourishing new Symbiosis and the only way is a depository of collective consciousness, like Aiwa in Avatar; and since I'm being ridiculous, Aiwa can be used as a hive mind. Most our studies find chemical (pheromone) like methods of communication in hive mind ants. So maybe our vocal nature is preventing us from developing additional chemical sensors into our physiology for more advance type of communications that can bring mitochondria to its reason for being from the getgo.

The Force spoke through the midi-chlorians, allowing certain beings to use the Force if they were sensitive enough to its powers."

    A geneticist once went bad, joined a biker gang, and went to jail for murder. When he got to the state pen he announced that the other inmates should call him "mitochondria." A gangster got in his face and asked why. He punched him so hard he flew across the room and he replied " *because I'm the power house of this mother f %^!in' cell!* "
    We all had that one teacher.

    Mitochondria are important in the immune system, particularly in neutrophil cells. They are important in pyroptosis to fight cellular invasion, netosis to 'net' bacteria and parasites in the blood using expelled DNA, production of reactive Nitris oxides also for anti-bacterial effects and vasodialation. By the same methods however, they are also key players when inflammation and immune system goes heywire and very self destructive as in lupus kidney damage, lung damage etc.

    9:59 well what I’ve always imagined is that the mother is the incubator so the father brings differences so if the mom is the stable then she might hold certain foundations like an egg instead of the difference every time. It’s like sharing the current with potential. A house is a solid foundation to maintain stability and the fathers seed brings difference to help shape difference into a relative foundation. Sounds weird but just my thoughts.
    11:48 yeah they might compete or cause mutations. It’s like fitting a puzzle piece into a slot, if the puzzles got an extra thing, it can cause interferences. Destabilization and relative collapse. It causes mutations or deformities probably or causes full collapse.

    Thanks to the people doing the actual science as I've done none of that, but I have been suggesting that mitochondria were more than dumb generators for decades. Just as some scientists are now asking who serves who in regards to our microbiome, we can also ask whether plants serve our needs or vice-versa.
    These are all symbiotic relationships where our insecurities convince us that "we" exist as separate entities from other living things or are at least masters over them; somehow a desirable, and thus survival-enhancing, concept to the human mind. Sentience allows us to sustain comfortable beliefs that, in turn, make us better servants to the microbes and plants that partner with us. "We" is something that most humans are too insecure to imagine and that bias is itself an adaptation; ignorance is literally bliss.
