BIOLOGY NEWS -

THE UNIVERSE WITHIN YOUR BODY

PICTURES of what we are - 90% microbe cells and only 10% human cells.


These animated simulations look like something out of a science fiction alien world - but it's all inside of you.  Truly amazing!  See pictures of bacteria and viruses as well as other miniscule sections of human organs magnified 10 million times their real size. They are quite beautiful, in a strange way.

The marvelous thing is that all these microscopic parts are working in harmony so that you can live and function in an optimal way.  Your body is also equipped to make repairs, and even to compensate when something is lost or damaged.  It is nothing less than a miracle of engineering.

10% of our cells are human, 90% are microbial - we look human because human cells are much larger, but the total human cell count is still 10% of the body - http://ottersandsciencenews.blogspot.ca/2013/05/psychology-issues-who-is-in-charge-of.html
