The bacterial flagellum is quite different from the eukaryotic flagellum, not just in structure but in how it’s used. Eukaryotes have a flappy flagellum, like a tail. It propels them. Prokaryotes are so tiny, that at their scale, swimming is impossible. The bacterial flagellum is a rigid spiral with a rotary motor protein structure at its base. When it rotates one way, the bacterium tumbles around, the closest it can get to swimming at that scale. When it rotates the other way, it corkscrews through the water molecules. When a bacterium “runs” the flagellum is in the front, like a teeny, tiny drill! What I find most fascinating about bacterial flagella is both the difference in how physics works at that scale and the fantastic protein motor that drives it! It’s a literal rotary motor... on a living thing!
Piñata Oblongata, it has an axle that passes through the cell wall and membrane, but it is driven by a ring of motor proteins just inside the cell. We’re both right!
@@PinataOblongata, the bacterial "biological axle and shaft" is, in fact, rotated by a molecular 'motor'. You can do an image search of 'bacterial flagellum' to see a representation of it.
Nope, the primordial soup had no life in it (it's also known as the "prebiotic soup"), Hank was talking about contemporary soup life. Which is an excellent name for a band :D
I love this channel... I get to hear interesting things about Protozoa while feeling really chill. This is the sort of stuff I wish we dived into more when I took biology.
Yes, yes, this is beautiful stuff, please make it even better. A piece of hair, a mm scale, a half mm scale, or a anything that would make it easier to "scale" these little pets.
(Dropping this here because I know that Hank and the other producers like to correct things in their videos) 4:41 Pseudopodia is from Greek. Ps is a Greek-only letter, and although a is a common plural noun ending in both Greek and Latin, it is more likely Greek due to the i as well as the fact that the other part of the word is also Greek.
Greek,along with the other classical language,Latin,are widely used in scientific nomenclature.They,ve both been used in Scientific fields since the 16th,and 17thCenturies,friends.
I work with cells in a lab and call them "little guys" all the time 😁. Or something ruder if theyre not doing what I'd like them to. You get kinda protective 😂.
You too? [looks at other comments . okaaayyy] Yes, this is the super chill version of Hank; and 'Hank, After Dark' really, really describes the vocal tunings of this series well. Nice catch.
School, or if older, adult education is a great place to start. Only reason I suggest chemistry is because everything is made of chemicals. If it has mass it’s a chemical. If it is more then one. Type of chemical. It’s a chemical compound, such as water, or table salt. Life it self is simply a self replicating chemical reactions. Consuming and absorbing other chemicals to keep existing.
Doing research on cellular biology helps a lot when trying to understand the world of microbiology. Knowing how all the individual organelles work at a molecular level really helps you to understand how all the components of a cell work together to create what we call life. Some basic chemistry knowledge helps a lot, too.
I can't always follow the jargon or the explanations, but these visuals, are STUNNING! It's like art! It really amazes me and makes me happy just to look at it! Thank you for sharing them :) (4:16 one celled organism clearly has the ZOOMIES hahaha)
Absolutely fabulous content that's beautiful but dense without assuming too much knowledge about microbiology. I never thought I would be drawn to the subject and had no idea that it's this interesting. These videos really convey just how amazing the microcosmos is. I adore the evolutionary bio that you incorporate as well, which makes every video even more profound. My mind is blown every time you post one of these
I had to watch this video like 4 times, because I kept falling asleep. Not because it's boring but because this series is so soothing and wonderful to listen to. It's so nice. It's like a lullaby.
Spore,is that some kind of Video Game perhaps?Don,t know if I ever heard of it,my friend.Anyway,best wishes,Kudos,and Happy Labor Day,and God bless you.
Actually this series inspired me to make something like the cell stage from spore, but more scientific accurate :D I'm not only a programmer, but also a micro biologist and it absolutly fits my favourite interests :D Maybe I'll upload some first ingame footage, when I reached a point where you can actually play the game/simulation
Welp, this is my new favorite youtube channel. Great hd images of the organism actually doing things instead of stained on a slide, educational narration and relaxing pleasant music, Im completely hooked. My only complaint is theres only a month and a half of vids and I watched them all! Cant wait for the next one.
I'm an undergrad biology student so i know most of the stuff that's discussed in this series but this is so well presented that i cant help but be awestruck. The script is beautifully lucid and informative, Hank's narration is almost therapeutic and the microscopic footage is sublime. I love this channel. It's like my ASMR-y revision after a week of bio classes lol.
I love everything about this channel. The photography is absolutely gorgeous, the narration is both soothing and superbly informative. It’s always a treat when a new video notification pops up.
Im 13, but this series (and spore) but mostly this series has really inspired me to make a game based on the functions of single celled organisms, and they eventually evolve. (Again, like spore). I’ve learned Python well enough, since I’ve been trying to learn it for years, but I know im going to need to know more about programming. I am going to create this game when I’m older. I’m dead set on it. But anyway this series is freaking amazing!
I love people that explain things in English like this, slow but steady and comprehensible. Most English education videos, they talk fast and I unable to understand a thing especially when the subtitles are auto generated. I'm not English native speaker and I find this way in delivering idea is fascinating and understandable. Well done, Journey To Microcosmos, you earned another new subscriber !
Observing microorganisms has been a dream of mine since I was a child. Fast forward 2 decades, I am now an undergraduate in physics(I like physics, too) and I have almost forgotten about this dream of mine until I discovered this channel. You and your team rekindled my curiosity for the wonderful world of microcosmos and I am so incredibly elated. Please never stop making these amazing and priceless videos. Keep it up!
love this channel, it reminds me of my first year of ecology and enviormental protection.......especialy it reminds me of one proffessor that was so freaking amazing you could listen to him for 6 hours straight and not get bored, sleapy and still be able to memorise all stuff he talks about....
After an annoying night, had an argument, felt ill and couldn't sleep my favourite new channel posted! It was like mana from the Heavens, the relaxing music and Hanks quiet narration. This channel is fuelling an interest into microbiology that I never really had.
Absolutely loving this series , it's a world rarely explored but just as fascinating and diverse as watching a documentary on the Serengeti. Keep up the amazing work !
Nooo, Hank! Pseudopodia is Greek, not Latin! This isn't the first time you've made that mistake, either - in Crash Course Psychology, you said that Psychology was Latin instead of Greek as well. I know it seems pedantic and nitpicky to point this out, but that Crash Course video was one of the first videos I ever saw of yours, and having that mistake within the first thirty seconds of the video made me not trust your information for a couple years. I know better now, thankfully, and love all your channels. I just feel like you should know about this stumble if you feel the need to point out etymology. Signed, a pedantic Classicist
I almost typed out a very similar message. :') I've had a very similar experience with Hank's content. I adore the videos he's involved in. Etymology has been a relatively consistent source of "Nooo, Hank!" moments though haha. "Leukocyte" comes to mind. Poor Greek... Don't neglect it!
Don't apologize. After a few compliments, some people with superiority complexes tend to believe they can say whatever they think they know as truth without even bothering to double check if they may be actually mistaken.
Your show's my new Zen: The footage of these very fascinating & alien creatures, the music, & your mellow voice that almost seems chosen for the series.
pseudopodia is Greek not Latin, pseudo in Greek means false and podia is the plural of pous (like Octa-PUS, meaning eight legged). Pous or podion was later latinized to Podium but that doesn't make it a latin word, especially when the etymology of both words (pseudo and podia) derives from Greek.
Dimitrios Spyridon Chytiris Hence where “Greco-Roman” comes from. When Rome devoured Greece, Greece became a symbiotic organelle of the larger Empire. The two ancient cultures merged so completely over the next 2000 years they became a new thing altogether by their shared DNA (knowledge, language, art, science, etc) with each other, yet still containing their original strands like mitochondria. When the city of Rome fell in the fifth century the Empire didn’t die, it just packed up shop and moved to Constantinople for the next 1000 years.
I haven’t had much time for watching UA-cam videos the past 6months... but this series has single handedly brought me back. I even showed it to my grandpa 😂
Such a beautiful series. Very informative while somehow being so relaxing and almost cathartic. I absolutely love it. Don't stop doing what you're doing, y'all!
They wouldn't be able to see them like the structures bacteria and archaea use to move viruses are too small to see with optical microscopes. You need far higher magnification than the level of bacteria if you want to see most viruses the only exceptions would be a girus (i.e. giant virus) that infects Eukaryotes with massive genomes that code for their own machinery rather than just hijacking their host.
I agree with the comment above about how difficult viruses would be to see since they're usually tiny. Also, being parasitic in nature, it would be tricky to grow them and they would spend some of their life cycle inside their host where they would be even harder to see
It would be incredible if we ever got to bacteriophages! They’re some of my favorite members of the microverse, along with giant viruses. I understand and respect you would like to leave viruses of any kind alone, but giant viruses are definitely some of the most interesting members of the microverse, and completely top bacteriophages in my book, so any mention of them at all would be a win! Thank you for making this series, this has very quickly become one of my favorite channels on UA-cam. Good luck on future videos!
Sporozoa often have flagella during the mobile part of their life cycle. Others drag themselves along over other cells. Some turned out to be fungi, and others are apicomplexans like malaria.
@@Cellticlink If we're already postulating survivable shrinking, why not some protective suit impervious to digestion and providing air (and perhaps water, and occasionally some snacks, why not)?
I love this video. Thank you for sharing. Your graphics are bright, clear, and really interesting. Your narrator sounds like a great teacher who knows how to grab the student's attention.
Evi1M4chine, these organisms were named in Latin. Most don’t even have common names. “Amoebae” is also just a fun word to pronounce, and it’s much less of a mouthful than paramecium and half the other organisms that show up under a microscope. Since it’s just Hank narrating, the weird spelling wouldn’t even have to be shown.
@Evi1M4chine- Im curious how you came to the conclusion that constructs like 'aeae' are 'deliberately' hard to pronunce. You also said English was a 'silly and limited' language.... but part of that is because of alcoholism, somehow?! And using Latin is even sillier, and of all things 'Snobist'?! Im just sooo confused right now. I mean, the OP was just commenting about the pronunciaton of a word, and how they thought it was fun to say.... but, ya kno, dont hold back, let us know how you *really* feel! lol
I've done physics and chemistry videos to death. Not bored with it just seen enough for now. This channel is so fascinating. No mind boggling equations or contradicting theories. Just beauty in motion. I doubt I could ever tire of watching this. Thank you!
was thinking to myself "cmon man, I want to see a sporozoa, they can't be that bad." Then I googled it. Woah, those are some nasty parasites. Definitely a fantastic idea to keep them as far away as possible. Best series on youtube at the moment, hands down.
I love this channel so much! I didn't realize how interesting and beautiful microorganisms could be. Can't get enough of them and the chill vibe of this channel. Keep up the good work!
Am I the only one who ends up getting closer and closer to the screen during these videos, to see more, closer...more! I love these wee beasties, and the nice narratives. Thanks!
In the closing seconds of this footage I loved the use of the word 'wanting' to describe these tiny packages of chemicals going about their survival processes.
This has quickly become my favorite series, always a great way to start the week.
I agree entirely. Microbiology is riveting.
Absolutely agree!
Yes. This is the best channel.
Every night i watch this!!!

i really look forward to every episode.. thank you Hank and Jam
I love this!
But I would have liked to see more of the flagella. I feel like it only showed one, and that one didn't really even move the cell.
At the very end of the video there's a cell swimming along. If you look slowly you'll notice it has a flagella
Helpin insomniacs pick up some knowledge while their meds kick in. Thanks for the chill ride Hank, your voice with the music is so soothing
I love how the music in these videos sounds like if it was made by a band of slimy translucent DJs
It would be incredible if we ever got to bacteriophages! They’re some of my favorite members of the microverse, along with giant viruses. I understand and respect you would like to leave viruses of any kind alone, but giant viruses are definitely some of the most interesting members of the microverse, and completely top bacteriophages in my book, so any mention of them at all would be a win! Thank you for making this series, this has very quickly become one of my favorite channels on UA-cam. Good luck on future videos!
thank you Hank, very cool
thank you Grimtin10, very cool
Thank James instead. He is the actual real deal here.
These have been more informative and tangible than my classes as a microbiology major haha
Though you do not have pictures of them, how do the Sporozoa move? Also do any occur maybe in plants? By their name they sound like Fungus.
Sporozoa often have flagella during the mobile part of their life cycle. Others drag themselves along over other cells. Some turned out to be fungi, and others are apicomplexans like malaria.
@@honourabledoctoredwinmoria3126 Ooooh I see. So I am guessing like Viruses they are largely mobile during their spread to other cells/hosts?
Not only are these videos fascinating but the typography and music is spot on; they fit the images perfectly.
I wish I could shrink down and ride one of these puppers.
Best comment I've seen all day ❤
No, Everything eats everything else you will be asorbed.
@@Cellticlink If we're already postulating survivable shrinking, why not some protective suit impervious to digestion and providing air (and perhaps water, and occasionally some snacks, why not)?
you know if they were people-sized Hagrid would want one of each!
Ride a tardigrade into battle
This channel needs to be a part of every school curriculum
He's like the Bob Ross of microcosm 😂👍
This has been the most visually stunning ep so far. Many scenes just beautiful artworks that would make cool desktop wallpapers.
What microorganisms are on top of their own foodchains?
Zach Hauser, the huge amoebae are up there, like Amoeba proteus. They’re so big that other microbes would have a hard time eating them.
This narrator is due for an award if you ask me. The character, wit and pacing are artful. Keep it up!
Edutainment worthy of Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers... for big kids.
I love this video. Thank you for sharing. Your graphics are bright, clear, and really interesting. Your narrator sounds like a great teacher who knows how to grab the student's attention.
We don’t keep parasites around because they mess with animals.
*5 seconds later*
AmEoBaS
Not all Ameobas are brain eating... Just like not all human... are vegan... You get the idea.
Is there a “That Brain Eating Amoeba”
this is so endearing, please never stop making these videos
"They are each a little soup... that wants." - that's straight up poetic right there.
This channel has become my favourite UA-cam channel nowadays
I’m curious as to why you don’t use “amoebae” (uh-me-bee) as the plural form of “amoeba”. It’s just a fun word to say!
Evi1M4chine, these organisms were named in Latin. Most don’t even have common names. “Amoebae” is also just a fun word to pronounce, and it’s much less of a mouthful than paramecium and half the other organisms that show up under a microscope. Since it’s just Hank narrating, the weird spelling wouldn’t even have to be shown.
Ive been calling them "Amoebas" thought my whole life ._.
AlphaAmoeba, you can still do so. It’s not really wrong, and non-biologists will give you a weird look if you say “amoebae”.
@Evi1M4chine- Im curious how you came to the conclusion that constructs like 'aeae' are 'deliberately' hard to pronunce. You also said English was a 'silly and limited' language.... but part of that is because of alcoholism, somehow?! And using Latin is even sillier, and of all things 'Snobist'?! Im just sooo confused right now. I mean, the OP was just commenting about the pronunciaton of a word, and how they thought it was fun to say.... but, ya kno, dont hold back, let us know how you *really* feel! lol
I've done physics and chemistry videos to death. Not bored with it just seen enough for now.
This channel is so fascinating. No mind boggling equations or contradicting theories. Just beauty in motion. I doubt I could ever tire of watching this.
Thank you!
I call Photosynthetic Flageolet is my band's name.
was thinking to myself "cmon man, I want to see a sporozoa, they can't be that bad." Then I googled it. Woah, those are some nasty parasites. Definitely a fantastic idea to keep them as far away as possible.
Best series on youtube at the moment, hands down.
I wouldn't want to risk getting malaria for a youtube video lol
How do Protozoa get around? Eukaryote.
I love this channel so much! I didn't realize how interesting and beautiful microorganisms could be. Can't get enough of them and the chill vibe of this channel. Keep up the good work!
Hi
hi
Hey
Am I the only one who ends up getting closer and closer to the screen during these videos, to see more, closer...more! I love these wee beasties, and the nice narratives. Thanks!
i don't need sleep i need answers
-it's midnight
4:20 here
Nice
When I started watching this channel I did not expect to be so INTERESTED.
"Pseudo" and "Pode" comme from Greek rather than Latin :)
This is the only youtube channel I look forward to each week.
They all drive Teslas 🤑😂
The soup wants what it wants.
Bet
In what nation, imgiNATION
Fantastic dose of microbiology with a kindful and relaxing voice to enjoy the images.
pseudopodia comes from greek actually. Pseudos: fake and Podia: feet
In the closing seconds of this footage I loved the use of the word 'wanting' to describe these tiny packages of chemicals going about their survival processes.
