It's an incendiary chemical.

For example, that's how we can make the quad hover.

Chemicals.

When matter is changed chemically, chemical energy is given off.

I want you to think about how you design computer programs to solve particular problems.

We already know that chemicals

This is natural from the environment, this clay.

and chemical agents.

Connection between life and radioactive nuclei is straightforward.

Through chemical composition and physical attributes, homogeneous portion of matter that separated from its environment in its expansion through a surface.

And the nature of a given cell driving its underlying biochemistry is dictated by which of these 25,000 genes are turned on and at what level they're turned on.

It contained harmful chemicals.

All those chemicals they had you working around?

It's an extraordinarily toxic thing.

Oh my goodness. Here we go again,

And then evolution used those body plans to evolve higher cognitive functions, and biological evolution kept accelerating.

The unique character of both individual neurons and neurons within a collection of the brain are driven by fundamental properties of their underlying biochemistry.

Well, the things I constantly hear are

Work that was done in the labs you found.

It's a flying laboratory that we took to make measurements in the region of this molecule.

And chemically separating things is like a bazillion times easier than isotopically separating it.

So that these don't just exist as one entity, we kind of chemically engineer them.

So the challenge then is, throw away all your pure chemicals in the lab, and try to make some protocells with lifelike properties from this kind of primordial ooze.

It senses the food it knows exactly what to do.

And so, there's a game of predator prey that's going to be, essentially, universal, really, in any kind of biological system.

And if we do, can we boot up a chromosome?

Evolution acts as a sieve. It sieves out the bad variation.

And some of those drops of oil had a particular combination of chemicals in them which caused them to incorporate chemicals from the outside and grow the drops of oil.

Suicide bombers, chemical attacks,

And later in biology class, I learned that it's due to a process called denaturing, which is where the proteins will change shape and lose their ability to chemically function.

We're similar at the genetic level.

There's many physiological processes that are influenced by the acidity of the ocean.

Some people want to have kids. Some people don't want to have kids. So it doesn't really affect on it.

Create high quality chemical formulas

Unless, of course, if you have a ski lift.

It can actually make itself glow.

Using those intellectual filters, we eliminated 7,962.

We have a fancy name for this we call it quorum sensing.

Think of it like timereleased chemotherapy.

For example, volatile organic compounds are chemical pollutants that are found in our schools, homes and workplaces.

Corexit also contains petroleum solvents and many other toxic compounds.

Other people who are poor don't have those choices.

We're going to make two different kinds.

(Laughter)

It's really old, and it's tired.
