Respect for the teeth

Teeth are located at the entrance where food is taken into the body, breaking down substances into small pieces for digestion. There seem to be creatures with a variety of teeth, including teeth that are constantly being replaced, teeth that continue to grow, teeth covered in iron, and teeth that are densely packed with over 20,000 teeth. In homage to the teeth that are directly connected to the activities of living things,

Respect for the Dragonfly

Dragonflies combine multiple highly functional elements and are sometimes called the strongest insects. They have flight capabilities that allow them to hover as if they are stationary, visual information processing at 300 frames per second, and antibacterial capabilities that sterilize just by touching them. In tribute to dragonflies, which play a key role in the nutrient cycle between water and land,

Respect for the mitochondria

Mitochondria are also known as energy production factories, and living organisms cannot survive without them. Mitochondria make up 10% of our body weight, and produce as much as 180kg of ATP per day. They were originally bacteria that were taken in 2 billion years ago. In honor of mitochondria,

Respect for the folding structure

Folding structures, such as bird wings, which unfold their wings during flight and fold them into the body when not flying. This is a tribute to the ingenuity and functional folding of living organisms, such as internal folding, which is functional for storage and protection, increasing the surface area of ​​intestinal walls, and three-dimensional folding, which allows proteins to function.

Respect for the sarcomere

Sarcomere is the smallest unit structure that makes up muscle. Each muscle fiber contains hundreds of myofibrils, with sarcomeres packed together in 10μm units. The collection of tiny contraction movements of sarcomeres produces enormous power like that of an elephant. In homage to sarcomeres

Respect for hovering

Hovering, which requires staying in one place in a fluid space, seems to be more difficult than moving. Hovering is unique to birds, and insects such as hummingbirds, dragonflies, mosquitoes, and bees also hover. In tribute to hovering, which requires high flight control,

Respect for the growth points

The growing point is where cell division is actively taking place, forming new leaves and roots. Cells at the growing point can change into any shape, control how they grow, and grow in the direction of light, gravity, and touch. In homage to the growing point that controls plant growth,

Respect for the elephant

Elephants are also known as keystone species and ecosystem engineers. They cut down trees to regenerate forests, and it seems that there is a diversity of living organisms in the trees, footprints, and feces they cut down. We pay tribute to the emotional elephants, who communicate with each other through low-frequency waves, call each other by name, laugh, play, and sometimes feel sad.

Respect for the tail

Tails are said to have evolved from the tail fins of fish. There are far more creatures on Earth that have tails. In tribute to the many roles that tails play, such as for balance, using them like hands, controlling flight, keeping warm and storing energy, courting and communicating, etc.

Respect for the squid and octopus

Squid and octopus are also known as primates of the sea. They deviate from the basic principles of life, have more genomes and genes than humans, freely edit RNA outside the nucleus, diversify their genomes with mobile genes, have excellent camera eyes, and have many hearts and brains. In tribute to these mysteries of life, squid and octopus
