Just leave a bunch of elements in a warm soup for billions of years and somehow you get these structures. Each piece of this picture popped up randomly at some point but for one reason or another didn’t dissolve or stagnate like most random structures would.

Evolution is just eight billion years of happy little accidents.

Amazingly, the people who made this visualization say it’s dilute compared to a real cell.

So your cells look like this, but with more of all this stuff packed in.

I’m in this meme and I C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP

Mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell aka my beloved 😍
