When you say the offspring of the tobacco plant, which offspring (since each graft will have its own fruit and thus offspring)? Grafting is more like transplantation or cloning than hugging. It takes a piece from one plant and attaches it to a different plant from a compatible species. In the end you don't end up with a "hybrid" plant but rather to plants that are sown together. The cells and flowers from one part are like the plant it came from. If you graft a Bing Cherry and a Red Haven Peach onto a Plum tree (yes, you can do that) then it will produce Bing Cherries and Red Haven Peaches, not a hybrid between the two each part is a clone of the original pant it came from.
Graft chimaeras are a thing! The most famous is probably + Laburnocytisus 'Adamii', an ornamental small tree that bears a mixture of branches and flowers like one or the other parent species AND with intermediate characters! From the wording in the video though I think the tobacco grafts grew true to type (is that the term?) as you described, but with evidence of having received genetic input from the rootstock.
@@marcotedesco8954 Cool graft chimeras sound interesting. I wonder how the genes migrate within the plans. In the cases you are talking about, where does the chimeric appear? Is it on the original grafted stock or on the root stock. Also, I do like your term "true to type", kind of a spin off of "true to seed".
@@connecticutaggie Graft chimeras occur when a bud grows at the graft junction, containing cells from both participants in the graft. The resulting branch is a weird mixture of tissues from both. The video had an image of one but it went by fast. Graft chimeras are pretty rare in normal grafting, but I suppose you could make them on purpose in tissue culture.
@@shitrowersdo Well they are if you include humans and all other descendants in it. A lot of people use it as a paraphyletic group, which are still a type of classification that hold some importance but its my preference to disregard them

Mary Shelley was definitely on to something. Considering lighting more than likely needed for the 'primordial soup' to really boil just as another facet to creating life. But it was widely understood back then already that lightning and life had connections. And life extension and creation of new life were a fad back then, and electricity and modern surgery techiques were the new inventions science fiction could extrapolate. And she brilliantly combined them creating a timeless masterpiece riddled with philosophy and moral issues while being a fun and fairly simple read.
I'm pretty sure lighting isn't actually used to bring Frankenstein's monster to life in the book, at least not explicitly. It has been a very long time since I read it, but I think that's one of the many things added later that stuck for almost all future versions.
@@rosalie.e.morgan I actually had to reread beginning of Chapter 5, where monster awakens. There is no lengthy description of the exact process that was used to bring him to life, just "I collected the instruments of life around me, that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet". World "spark" seems to be used metaphorically. In Chapter 2 Victor Frankenstein sees tree that is destroyed by lightning. This event turns his interests to natural philosophy. But he must be perfectly aware of destructive nature of powerful electrostatic discharges by then. 1931 movie with Boris Karloff contains famous "It's Alive!" scene, where monster is brought to life during thunderstorm: th-cam.com/video/1qNeGSJaQ9Q/w-d-xo.html I found an article that speculates about Mary Shelley's knowledge about experiments that used electricity to reanimate corpses: www.insidescience.org/news/science-made-frankenstein
10:36 And Cue me pointing out that Frankenstein was no doctor (he went into an angst coma and dropped out of college after the whole 'creating life' incident) and there was no indication of him using lightning or any other form of electricity to make his creature in Shelley's text (it's just sort of ... glossed over. He made the creature, don't worry about the details). Both are essentially inventions of relatively modern adaptations. And by 'relatively modern' I mean somewhere in the thirties.
@zenebean All living things have salt water in them, and its composition corresponds to the salinity of the ocean when each of these living things evolved. Yes, humans too.
@@johannageisel5390As lh3550 pointed out, these are not the eels of which you are thinking. "Electric eels" are merely called "eels" because they have adopted an eel-like method of swimming (& thus also appearance: snake-like body, reduced fins). They are actually a type of freshwater catfish.
Shoot. I was really hoping we'd figured out how to turn a person into a fish. I really, really want to be able to breathe underwater. It's the superpower I wish I had. Just call me Mrs. Limpet. 😁🤣
I remember at university for my research project I was trying to create a genetic recombinant e coli culture and I used electroporation to do so, it kept failing and it was driving me insane. Can't believe eels have been doing it for thousands of years and by accident too no less!
