Poptropica Get Back To Dragon What has happened today with the pot?

said Ed Weiler, NASA's from central Washington. "As we continue looking for signs of life in the solar system, we must think more broadly, the more diversity, and also consider ways of life we do not know."

This finding of an alternative biochemistry books biologíay change will expand the range of search for extraterrestrial life. The study is published in Science Express this week.

carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur are the six basic components of all known life forms on Earth. The match is part of the column isphosphates.

"We knew that some microbes can breathe arsenic, but this is something new: the microbe is built himself with arsenic," says chief scientific research. "If anything on Earth can do something so unexpected, what other things can make life that we have not seen it yet?".

The new microbe, called GFAJ-1, is part of a group of common bacteria, the Gammaproteobacteria. In the laboratory, the researchers managed growth of these bacteria with a diet very low in phosphorus and arsenic generous. When they removed the match and replace ito say, just found a new way of life. He knew of extremophiles

but this is completely new. We talked about a way of life unlike anything known so far.

the biology today is based on any form of life needs to fuck several elements to develop its DNA that are phosphorus, along with other elements such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen , oxygen and sulfur.

Phosphorus is one of the bases of the construction of our DNA, construction of cellular membranes and transport across the cell energíaa.

As you mentioned the article, these organisms have been completely replaced phosphorus by arsenic in all of these functions.
As I read, phosphorus and arsenic are extremely similar (though less stable arsenic) so both DNA constructed similarly.

not talking about a bug that you live in arsenic, but a microbe DONE (literally) of arsenic! (Excuse the enthusiasm, but we're not aware of what was just discovered).

In order to rewrite all the books in biology from the beginning ...
