Have you ever thought about your body?  I mean really thought about your body and how the body works?  Well we all could use an in-depth study of our wonderful body.  If we had an inside look we would gain appreciation of what makes up our body.

 

The total body could be likened to a complex machine that can accomplish many tasks.  The body has a computer like control center that commands activities to be carried out and accomplished.

In this study we are going right into a single cell to observe the cell function.  This examination will be simplified to allow understanding of the entire body of cells that makes up a human being.

 

Your Body Made Up of Many Cells:

Molecular biology has shown that even the simplest of all living systems on earth today, body cells, are exceedingly complex objects. The tiniest cells are incredibly small, weighing less than one trillionth of a gram. Every cell is comparable to a micro-miniaturized factory. 

 

Each cell contains thousands of exquisitely designed pieces of intricate molecular machinery.   Each cell made up of one hundred thousand million atoms. Each cell is far more complicated than any machine built by man.

 

Molecular biology study has also shown that the basic design of the cell system is essentially the same in all living systems on earth from bacteria to mammals. In all organisms the roles of DNA, RNA and protein are identical. The meaning of the genetic code is also virtually identical in all cells.

 

The size, structure and component design of the protein synthetic machinery is practically the same in all cells. In terms of their basic biochemical design, therefore no living system can be thought of as being primitive or ancestral with respect to any other system.

 

Cell Complexity:

  “To grasp the reality of life as it has been revealed by molecular biology, we must magnify a cell a thousand million times until it is twenty kilometres in diameter and resembles a giant airship large enough to cover a great city like London or New York. What we would then see would be an object of unparalleled complexity and adaptive design.

 

 

On the surface of the cell we would see millions of openings, like the port holes of a vast space ship, opening and closing to allow a continual stream of materials to flow in and out. If we were to enter one of these openings we would find ourselves in a world of supreme technology and bewildering complexity.

 

We would see endless highly organized corridors and conduits branching in every direction away from the perimeter of the cell, some leading to the central memory bank in the nucleus and others to assembly plants and processing units.

 

The nucleus itself would be a vast spherical chamber more than a kilometre in diameter, resembling a geodesic dome inside of which we would see, all neatly stacked together in ordered arrays, the miles of coiled chains of the DNA molecules.

 

A huge range of products and raw materials would shuttle along all the manifold conduits in a highly ordered fashion to and from all the various assembly plants in the outer regions of the cell.

We would wonder at the level of control implicit in the movement of so many objects down so many seemingly endless conduits, all in perfect unison. We would see all around us, in every direction we looked, all sorts of robot-like machines.

 

We would notice that the simplest of the functional components of the cell, the protein molecules, were astonishingly, complex pieces of molecular machinery, each one consisting of about three thousand atoms arranged in highly organized 3-D spatial conformation.

 

We would wonder even more as we watched the strangely purposeful activities of these weird molecular machines, particularly when we realized that, despite all our accumulated knowledge of physics and chemistry, the task of designing one such molecular machine—that is one single functional protein molecule—would be completely beyond our capacity at present and will probably not be achieved until at least the beginning of the next century.

 

Yes the life of the cell depends on the integrated activities of thousands, certainly tens, and probably hundreds of thousands of different protein molecules.

 

Conclusion for All People:

Does such knowledge invoke in you respect for your body and cause you to take good care of your body?  If you eat poorly you are clogging up your perfectly designed body.  We need to pay attention to our body to become a well tuned person working at top efficiency.  Each red blood cell brings the food that you take in and feeds the entire body of cells making up your body as they travel through your veins. 

 

Eat junk food and your feeding your body junk and processed food and getting fat. 

 

Eat nourishing food along with your Acai diet and you will be feeding your body nourishing food and staying thin.

 

To your weight loss success, health, and happiness,
