Biologist Explains How Inorganic Materials May Have Evolved Into Biological Life
Podcast Playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSv6OKbhH4JPB39EGAHhOOHzkpZgXVfQ5
00:00 - Biologist Ken Lyon explores the Origin of Life
00:29 - Where did life come from?
01:21 - To understand life It has to be understood on many different scales
01:51 - Why are some molecules important to life space isotopes?
02:50 - Would life look similar on other planets?
05:31 - Do you like the theory that life started at the bottom of the ocean?
07:07 - What is the anatomy of a thermal vent?
08:00 - Why is the Urey-Miller experiment important for understanding life?
10:50 - How old is biological life in comparison to the Earth itself?
11:33 - How does having amino acids on an early earth lead to life as we know it now?
12:07 - What is the RNA World hypothesis?
13:26 - Breaking down how amino acids might link into nucleobases from pond theory
14:03 - We still don’t know how life made sugar (ribose) from inorganic materials
14:51 - The kreb cycle has such small components, some argue it might be fundamental to any organic life on any planet.
16:12 - What is the role of boron in creating silica glass?
17:17 - New experiments show how inorganic life can form the basic components of the Krebs cycle
19:09 - Scientist found more amino acids once Stanley Miller died and they re-analyzed his work
19:45 - How often do grad students reproduce and vary the Urey-Miller experiment?
21:15 - How to pronounce the longest word in English, pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
21:50 - What is emergence? Can you describe emergence with a Lego metaphor?
23:09 - How does Conway's game of life give us a visual example of how simple rules can lead to complex phenomena
25:50 - Where does information first show up in the steps of life?
30:24 - What are Janus particles And what can we learn from them?
37:28 - How could early organic molecules have evolved to self replicate?
38:46 - Let's try to summarize what we have learned so far
40:32 - What is the Minimotif Synthesis Hypothesis?
41:49 - It’s important to understand small chains of amino acids can fold in countless ways
44:17 - RNA World Theory 101
46:31 - Why do amino acids tend to link up naturally?
49:53 - We try to calculate how many viruses are in the room with us
52:16 - Is a virus a life?
52:38 - The story of Henrietta Lacks and her unique cancer cells
54:55 - Do you have an opinion on gene drives?
57:06 - How haplotypes with specific genes can destroy gametes to guide evolution
59:45 - Human have caused the 6th great extinction
