Chapter 758 Silicon-Based Life
Seeing that Chiyo kept looking between No. 1 and the meteorite with thoughtful eyes, Mo Nan knew that he had successfully aroused her interest.
Chiyo was right. The reason why Mo Nan wanted to bring back a meteorite was not only for the purpose of research, but also because he was also worried that the existence of the flame psychic beast might be related to the meteorite.
If the two are separated, even with the effect of the sealing technique, the flame psychic beast may still die.
There are only 108 flame psychic beasts left, and they don't know whether they can reproduce new offspring. If one dies, there will be one less. We can't take this risk.
Now both of these have been handed over to Chiyo, and it is up to Chiyo to research anything based on these two.
By the way, Chiyo seems to often watch his own popular science programs, and he can also give Chiyo some guidance on TV, allowing her to study according to her own ideas.
There is an episode of the program that Chiyo likes to watch tonight. I originally planned to talk about the relationship between physics and engineering tonight, but now it seems that I have to talk about life science tonight.
Chiyo couldn't wait to take the two things Honghaier gave him to study. Mo Nan believed that Chiyo's attainments in life and puppetry should be able to research something.
At the same time, Mo Nan was doing the same research in Greer's laboratory.
At night, Chiyo returned home excitedly and said to Honghaier: "After I studied your psychic beast and the stone that I brought back, do you know what I found?"
Mo Nan shook his head and waited for Chiyo's explanation, but in fact, Mo Nan also analyzed those two things in depth in his own laboratory. Of course he knew what Chiyo might have discovered?
Now he explained: "The body structure of your psychic beast is too special, and the reason for its existence cannot be explained for the time being. But on the meteorite you brought back, we found something amazing.
The composition of that meteorite is nothing remarkable, mainly silicon, and some other common elements such as carbon and iron.
The strange thing is that the stone, which is obviously composed of ordinary elements, possesses chakra miraculously. After some analysis, we found that this stone is actually an organic matter.
Next, we continued to conduct in-depth research on this stone. As a result, we surprisingly found that this stone is not only an organic substance, but even has some biological characteristics. This stone is actually the embryonic form of life. How dare you Do you believe it? "
"But since even flames can turn into life, it shouldn't be inconceivable that stones can turn into life."
Chiyo can be considered a scientist if he can develop the technique of self reincarnation, and naturally he has all the shortcomings of scientists.That is, once she finds something that excites her, she becomes a little carried away.
Seeing that Honghaier didn't reply for a long time, Chiyo calmed down and said.
"By the way, you can't understand me when I say that, after all, these things are still too advanced for you."
But what Chiyo didn't expect was that Honghai shook his head and said: "No, I can probably understand what you said, just now what the red-haired uncle said on TV seems to be what you just said. "
Chiyo looked at the TV curiously, following Hong Haier's eyes, and found that what was playing on the TV was not the science popularization program of Shadu that he liked?
Since the discovery of Shadu, he often introduces some cutting-edge science and technology in TV programs.After sharing his vision of the future development of science, Chiyo became obsessed with this program and never missed every episode.
But today I discovered something new and I was so excited for a while that I even forgot that my favorite program was broadcast.
What Shadu is talking about today is life science, and he is talking about the cause of life.When he actually talked about something he likes, Chiyo immediately concentrated on studying it carefully.
Shadu on the TV slowly said: "Since ancient times, human beings have been exploring the origin of life, and various theories emerge in endlessly.
Creationism, cosmology, autogenesis, etc.I personally believe in the theory of celestial body impact, or chemical origin.
First of all, creationism is nothing at all, and God itself is illusory, so it is meaningless to discuss creationism.
As for the theory of life in the universe, there is no limit, after all, we have not yet proved the existence of aliens.
I believe in the theory of celestial body impact and the theory of chemical origin, because it can be discussed from a scientific point of view, whether it is the impact of celestial bodies that brought amino acids that are not available on the earth, or the earth itself has developed unexpectedly in the long-term evolution It is possible to discover organic compounds that could evolve into primitive life that did not exist before.
According to my research, the most important element for living things is carbon, because all life on earth is composed of organic matter based on carbon.
This may be because the chemical properties of carbon itself are flexible and changeable, and the organic compounds formed are relatively stable, so it is easier to generate life.
However, after comparing all the elements, I found that it is not necessarily only carbon that is easier to generate life. There is another element whose microscopic physical reaction is very similar to that of carbon, and that is silicon.
I am thinking that if it is in a certain special environment, it is very likely that there are also organisms based on silicon that are different from our ubiquitous carbon-based life. "
Chiyo only heard half of this episode, and she didn't hear a lot of things before, but in the last few minutes, she still heard some important things.
After watching the program, Chiyo thought about it: "It turns out that silicon is the most likely to replace carbon as the most basic element of life?
The main component of that meteorite is silicon. Could this be the silicon-based life that Shadu said only existed in theory but could not be proved yet? "
It seems that it is possible, because the meteorite does have some kind of biological characteristics, and the vitality emanating faintly cannot be faked.
That flaming mountain is really a magical place, it actually produced flaming psychic beasts and meteorites that were suspected of life.
If you can do some on-the-spot investigation, it is estimated that there will be greater gains.
It's a pity that this place was accidentally discovered by Honghaier using reverse spirituality, and it may not exist in any corner of the world.
This place has never been discovered before, it should exist in an inaccessible place, and there are no other clues to find such a place, it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
It would be great if there was an existence on the Flaming Mountain who could use reverse spiritism and summon the red boy.
However, according to Chiyo's previous research, Honghaier's psychic beasts have extremely low intelligence and only have some simple instincts, so it is impossible to use such complicated ninjutsu.
If that meteorite is really a primitive silicon-based life, its development potential is too great.
First of all, silicon is a kind of metal. If life is based on silicon knots, it should obviously be a kind of metal life, so the strength of the body should not be a problem.
Moreover, various experiments related to carbon-based organisms are now legally restricted, which is the main reason why they cannot deeply study the human puppet secret technique to compete with scorpions.
But this law is only aimed at the currently known carbon-based organisms. If it is silicon-based life that cannot even be proven to be life, can it be researched at will?
Even if that meteorite is a silicon-based life, it is in a very primitive state.It is estimated that if there is no other intervention, it may not be able to develop a real life form in another tens of millions of years.
But with proper guidance, it should be possible to quickly speed up this process, such as the technique of reincarnation.
Chiyo turned to look at Honghaier. Thinking about it this way, if this experiment wants to continue, Honghaier's help is indispensable.
