For Anyone Who Thinks They Can Control Their Plants

[squiggly]

The following is a demonstration of the complexity of life. Please keep in mind while watching that:

1. This is an extremely simplified and dumbed down video.
2. There has been no mention of chemicals which inhibit/promote any of the proteins mentioned in the chain. (The colored blocks represent proteins/enzymes in this video).
3. There are far more complex chains than this one in both plants and animals.

I pride myself on my ability to comprehend things on all levels no matter what it is.... I understand absolutely none of that. On a side note, I liked when then one little dude went through the wood chipper thing at the end. I'm guessing that's a negative thing lol.

Yep, life sure is complex. Despite that, we can do pretty well controlling plant growth by manipulating various factors.
