Selfish Mitochondria
Yeah, you know me, I am Michael O’Gabriel. I am your cellular stud. You need a quick pick-me up, some energy, or a Red Bull of the cell? I am your organelle. I am a mitochondrion, one of millions upon billions upon gagillions of mitochondria within the cells of your body. I give you energy from the food that you eat, and for that you love me. You love me so much that you made me a slave of your membrane. I am your prisoner, but I am OK with this most of the time. You give me food; I give you energy. However give me the chance, and I will try my damnedest to break free from the cellular shackles.
Have a seat, for I have a story to tell. During this telling, you will learn about my origin, and our “symbiosis” in the Background. I will then tell you about how I beat your little oppressive self and your minions of subordinate mitochondria in the Hateful Mitochondrion.
…..Idiot! The links are to the left. Go already!
