Molecular Visualization of DNA

We are made up of atoms and molecules following fundamental rules and interactions. Everything that happens within us is not due to devine intervention, but ultimatly the fundamental forces of nature.

daymyth Says:

Nov 10, 2008 - That IS translation. I'm sure the blue ones are Ribozomes and the green ones are tRNA. Oh lol i get it. That in fact this is not DNA Replication as the title states but Polypeptide translation. Well at least one person spotted it. Awesome never seen it visualised like this, you can really see the introns and extrons

Ape DNA is related to Human DNA, Creation is falsified as it predicts that no such connection could be possible, It states different origins. Evolution is not falsified, it is the only reasonable explanation for the similarity which precisely matches predictions about the tree of life model. Religion and 'guiding hand' can coexist with science(although many physicists would disagree), but not biblical creation, In a literal sense anyway.

Nov 18, 2008 - it's dna replication. you can see the leading and lagging strands. also, helicase is not involved in translation. the animation for translation from the same ppl is also on youtube.

daymyth Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Ahhhh I see it now.... The zoom in makes more sense. The deep blue is helicase, yeap and i see the leading and lagging strands...

Nov 30, 2008 - this is DNA Replication

Dec 14, 2008 - Mice DNA and Pigs DNA are also incredibly similar to human DNA. Why don't u talk about this?

Dec 14, 2008 - GREAT!

GetMeThere1 Says:

Dec 14, 2008 - marsCubed: "Creationism is testable." It is not. Each and every physical and molecular artifact of abiogenesis and evolution COULD have been created, de novo... The problem is that it essentially CANNOT be tested for--unless, perhaps, one were to start finding SERIAL NUMBERS, or something, stamped on cells. Evolution can be (and has been) tested in myriad ways. Creationism can never be--it's a meaningless" assertion (sans serial numbers or some other totally overt indicator).

marsCubed Says:

Dec 14, 2008 - GetMeTere1, Of course Creationism is falsifiable, it keeps making falsifiable claims. Such as the serial number on cells beginning with a new sequence for different species (DNA IS information about replication and ancestry) Creation also predicts geology and cosmology which we do not find. I do not mean to be mean here, great video and want to keep on subject. Literal interpretations of religious texts may give us some questions and aesthetics, however creation does not explain the process.

GetMeThere1 Says:

Dec 14, 2008 - We may differ on the exact meaning of "creationism." I don't mean a literal reading of the bible (only the profoundest morons try to defend that). I mean those who agree with all of the observable facts uncovered by science (like MANY different fossil layers with hugely different--and generally ever more complex-- fossils, laid down over vast periods of time). For anyone to say, "yeah, what we see is what we see, but it was caused by MAGIC," well, there really is no way to test/disprove that.

marsCubed Says:

Dec 14, 2008 - GetMeThere1, Perhaps it is the nature of some religious trends and literalist dogma which has made many people, including the vast majority of sensible Christians, put on edge. God is indivisible, everything which exists is a part of the whole, religions, ideas, evolution etc. Everything we see, measure and touch is a model in our brain; phenomenology. Numen(latin for deity)is the real we can only imagine. Fundamentalists make an idol out of their books. God cannot be known but is discoverable.

truthofevolution Says:

Dec 30, 2008 - watch my videos on evidence for evolution and the logical argument of bayesian inference which shows the unscientific basis of your arguments.

truthofevolution Says:

Dec 30, 2008 - I apologize, I didnt see that your know the importance of prediction, but nothing in creationism has been verified. Also I dont know if you mean a literal interpretation of the bible as creationism.

marsCubed Says:

Dec 30, 2008 - I think I may have fumbled what I was trying to say. My assertion was that creation makes falsifiable claims, many of which are big time falsified. It is not possible to discuss what colour mountain is, if there is no mountain. Geology, DNA etc all falsify creationism, debating with ID is useless, better to concentrate on educating and enlightening those who are interested and ridiculing the nuts who are not, they just want to recruit into their cults and have nothing to offer biology.

truthofevolution Says:

Dec 30, 2008 - sorry i was a bit confused in understanding as well. Well take care of yourself. For me however, this is more than a fight against creationism for evolution. This is a fight for understanding what science means and how it is derived.

marsCubed Says:

Dec 30, 2008 - Agreed about understanding :) But consider that there is a fraction of creationist proponents who are professional spoilers, they are never going to agree, Arguing with them has merit in so much as it does not leave them looking smug on whatever platform they happen to be using. As for everybody else; most people love learning and understanding new things. People are curious and generally fascinated by nature, if they haven't been bullied into darkness. Good luck to you too thruthofevolution.
