It is well known that plants can perform photosynthesis because of the presence of chloroplasts in their cells.Chloroplasts can convert light energy into chemical energy.

The inheritance of this structure in the cell is not entirely determined by the genetic material in the nucleus.The earliest chloroplast is actually a single cell.It's just that after parasitizing in the cells, they live better.This symbiotic relationship gradually developed into the status quo of later plants.Chloroplasts are no longer separate cells, but become part of other cells.

This is actually the same as mitochondria.The genetic material in the cell nucleus is only part of the determination of biological characteristics.The influence of cytoplasmic inheritance on biological traits is also very important.

Therefore, how to enable animals to perform photosynthesis has become a subject worthy of research. Nanomachines implanted in organisms are now cytoplasmic inheritance in a sense.It’s just that when tulips use nanomachines, they know it but don’t know why.Although the genetic material and composition of nanomachines have been analyzed.But it cannot be manufactured by artificial means.Perhaps the long-term symbiosis allows them to integrate with the human body and eventually evolve into a kind of creatures that do not distinguish each other.

However, the technology of controlling cytoplasmic inheritance and changing biological characteristics by adding cell structure in the cytoplasm is still worth studying.

Allowing animals to perform photosynthesis is one of the important topics of this research, and the development team intends to make it suitable for animals.The chloroplast cells are transformed and implanted into the embryo.

In the process of embryonic cell development, there will be chloroplasts distributed in each cell of the entire new life individual.In theory, photosynthesis can be carried out in this way.

But the situation is far from that simple. Plants can photosynthesize because they have supporting facilities.Chloroplast is only software, and the body structure suitable for photosynthesis is hardware.

There are no catheters and sieve tubes in the animal's body, and there are no pores on the skin.Unable to perform transpiration.Similarly, the nucleus of animal cells cannot direct the synthesis of corresponding proteins to inhibit the work of chloroplasts in cells that do not require chloroplasts.

This causes these embryos to develop abnormally even if they are implanted, and eventually turn into a mess.There are no surviving individuals in many experiments.

Of course, it is impossible for scientists to have such an idea.Since the embryonic development process is easy to die due to foreign chloroplasts.So the physical modification of mature individuals has also entered the field of vision of scientists.

There is no doubt that it is more difficult to transform mature individuals.The human body has 8 billion cells and it is impossible to inject chloroplasts into these cells one by one.

Therefore, the chloroplasts must be modified so that they can replicate themselves without the guidance of the nucleus.And through a series of means to invade into the cell.

Tulip scientists have long been familiar with similar genetic research. A group of geneticists who started with zombie viruses are very good at how to make a cell aggressive.

It's just that things are going to be reversed. They made the chloroplast too aggressive and turned it into the green poison.When experimenting on the body of a white mouse, this chloroplast.Killed the mice in a short time.

The dead white mouse showed a terrible green all over.Putting his body in the sun, it was found that photosynthesis could indeed take place.But because the breathing and circulatory systems have stopped, photosynthesis only lasted for a short time.Most of the cells died afterwards.

Later, experiments were conducted with larger animals.The bigger the animal is.The more resistant it is to this kind of chloroplast, because the chloroplast is small in size, and the genetic material contained in it is relatively small.The increase in the number of divisions will lead to the loss of genetic material, just like the telomere of a cell.

When a large amount of genetic material is lost, the material added to genetic information from the outside will be the first to be lost.That is, the genetic information that induces aggressive chloroplasts.In theory, as long as the organism is large enough, there will be enough chloroplasts injected.There is a chance to achieve a symbiotic effect.

They used elephants to do experiments and only injected one chloroplast.The elephant survived for a full month, although the body surface turned green.But he didn't die immediately, instead he could not eat.

It's just that the size of the elephant still seems to be a little worse, a month later.The elephant still died of a brain tumor.As for the later captured 100,000-year soul beast as the experimental object.

A small amount of chloroplasts will be directly killed by the immune system of the 100,000-year soul beast.Waiting for a large number of chloroplasts will directly threaten the life of the 100,000-year soul beast.Need to find a balance.And this balance point is obviously that the larger the body, the more cells contained in the body, the easier it is to find.

Originally, Tulip wanted to catch the Demon Whale King of the Deep Sea and try it.With that guy's huge size, he should be more than 80% sure, and make it into a deep-sea magic whale that can perform photosynthesis...

But now I met Kun Peng, and the problem was simple.The size of Kunpeng is almost a million times that of the Demon Whale King of the Deep Sea.This kind of body shape can balance the chloroplast with himself without even adjustment.There is no possibility of failure at all.Unless Kunpeng has dried dozens of tons of chloroplasts by himself.

But even if he wanted to do it, Chengying didn't have that much inventory.

Kunpeng probably understood Chengying's description, but he was still uneasy. Such a dangerous thing entered his body directly. After thinking about it, he pecked on his wings with his sharp edge.

From his perspective, he just tore off a small piece of meat.There was an insignificant wound on the wing, but from Cheng Ying's perspective, he tore off more than 100 tons of meat from his wing.This is almost the size of an ordinary deep sea monster.

"You try on this piece of meat first, and I will only agree to the injection if I see that he is safe."

This is a reasonable request. Knowing that this is a terrible thing, few people would want it.Ask someone to inject him directly into his body.

Cheng Ying nodded, 100 tons of body tissue is enough to make a very small amount.The chloroplast has reached equilibrium with it.Chengying injected about 0.1 milliliter of diluent into the large mass of flesh and blood, and then saw that from the injection position, the flesh began to gradually turn light green.

The green spread a little bit and finally covered most of this piece of flesh and blood before it stopped.
