To your last point, is this why people with Alzheimer’s remember things from when they are a kid, but not who their children are?

Especially because the relationship between “multiple” hosts can be predator and pray, and if one becomes sick, or weaker, while the other is completely fine, it might be advantageous to kill off one of the hosts so that it can live in the stronger one.

I’m pretty sure that the space between your fingers is larger than the space between the cells regrowing in your respective fingers, because when you touch something you’re not actually touching it, you’re just feeling the pressure.

Woah I just had a thought. But first, is the reason they are getting bigger based on manual or computer programmed input (probs a combination of both)? Like do we have program that has a set of laws that say create this compound based on 118 elements, but if it’s this element don’t add this element, and if it’s this element and this element don’t add this many bonds etc,? Also, when you do these screenings, does a computer program run through a combination of compounds and targets and how they interact? This is so fascinating.
