Nothing to do with rain. But it definitely does look cheerful

That's true. Fluorescence is just metabolically expensive.

In each seed this gene would segregate some wouldn't express at all, some lower and if you did it more times more than likely the mutation would be lost

Not really. They transformed plant cells in a lab with GFP from a mushroom and established a stable transgenic line. This can't be done without modern techniques. Not the same as breeding them

Good luck breeding a plant until it replicates jellyfish DNA for fluorescence.

It's not a light bulb lol. If it were ten times as bright the plant would exhaust it's own energy and die

There was an ice cream party for the company. Those who attended were laid off.

They're not compromised of cells, can't self regulate, and can't replicate on their own and other organisms have to do that for them. The last point being important to our criteria for living. I was never taught as a biologist by anyone that they were alive

We did this in highschool but with a texting and driving simulator. You had to drive the car and not hit a ton of obstacles meanwhile texting back a specific message in response to incoming text messages. I played a shit ton of video games as a child so I was super good at this and never crashed. Made the gym teacher mad. I still understood the point of it though of course but I liked being able to beat the game.

God sometimes when I read stuff like this as a post I reflexively down vote because I hate it so much until I remember it's just a post calling attention to someone being a piece of shit and not agreeing with them. I up voted again to fix it lol

I worked at McDonald's to be able to afford to go to college and they sold my fingerprint data. I got like 50 dollars in the mail for compensation. Always thought that was fucked. They probably made more selling it all than the settlement was. I should've gotten a lot
