ID and flagellum

[MorganMarvinson]

See for yourself. Why fudge on similarity in the animation (4:14) when the actual organisms (4:28) are more different?

[MorganMarvinson]

Just one further note: Dr. Miller's fashion statement may add further to the myth of the Geek's poor sense of fashion. :)

[MorganMarvinson]

Compare the electron view versus the animation of the flagella and the syringe that injects poison. Why the fudging?

Resistors and capacitors can derive

all sorts of very unique circuits.

Same parts different design.

Not one drop of evidence from the 'scientist' at 4:34 to show any evolution between the two.

I see a set of similar parts being used for very different things..God is very efficient!

As in real life motors and medical needles both use bushings.

If it misses either, No motor no ability to spread..death. Life dies stranded.

Intellegence! God! Jesus! Repent!

The same thing with the mousetrap being used as a tie clip. You could take away a few parts of the mousetrap and still use it as a tie-clip. But in that case (knowing it's history) the mousetrap came first. A crippled mousetrap acting as a tie clip doesn't catch mice. (Unless it is specifically designed to do so (and isn't very reliable)). It's use as a tie clip is, possibly unique to Dr. Miller, though it may have become a fashion accessory in some of the trendier biological sciences labs.

Except Miller redefined I.C. It's not that taking away a part makes something totally useless, it's about whether taking away a part allows the original function to be maintained. The T3SS syringe is not used in motility. Evidence indicates that the T3SS came after the flagellum was already widespread. It wasn't a pre-cursor. There are similarities, shared components, and similar functions of transportation. But motility is unique to the flagellum. Component re-use in two different designs.

When did the bacteria decide it was better to be able to move than it was to be able to defend itself? Is the bacteria intelligent enough to make that decision?
