Before the trial takes place, Yong-gu is trained by the Room 7 inmates on how to answer potential prosecution questions and he becomes proficient in answering them. Unfortunately, the commissioner beats Yong-gu before the trial in a fit of rage, threatening to kill his daughter if he does not confess. Left with no other choice, Yong-gu sacrifices himself by lying that he killed the commissioner's daughter to protect Ye-sung. Yong-gu is then sentenced to death and the execution date is scheduled for December 23, which happens to fall on Ye-sung's birthday. Feeling sorry for Yong-gu, the inmates decide to build a hot air balloon for Yong-gu to escape. During a prison concert, the inmates send Yong-gu and Ye-sung on the balloon while the guards pretend to be overwhelmed, but the balloon's rope is caught by barbed wire. On the day of Yong-gu's execution, the inmates and Yong-gu celebrate Ye-sung's birthday before he is executed. Yong-gu is sent to prison, where he shares a jail cell (titled "Room 7") with five other inmates, all of who initially dislike him for his falsely accused crime and his disability. One day, Yong-gu saves the life of his cellmate and prison gang leader, So Yang-ho, from being stabbed by a rival prison gang leader. Touched at this, Yang-ho then offers to help Yong-gu in any way he can to return the favor. Yong-gu tells Yang-ho that he wants to see his daughter Ye-sung. The inmates successfully smuggle Ye-sung into the prison when her choir visits the prison for a performance. Ye-sung is introduced to her dad's cellmates and manages to stay for a night, but is inadvertently found by the warden. Eventually, the warden realises that Yong-gu is not the assailant of the girl after Yong-gu saves him from an attempted arson, and allows Ye-sung to visit Yong-gu every day after school. is the most recent in a series of books on evolution and intelligent design by Michael Denton. 2 , 3 , 4

Karsten Pultz: Review of Denton’s “The Miracle Of The Cell” Karsten Pultz: Review of Denton’s “The Miracle Of The Cell”

Cell membranes can have an electrical potential across them caused by the difference in ion concentrations on either side of the membrane. The membrane potential is used to power rapid transport of molecules across the membrane. Sugars and amino acids are transported into a cell by using a sodium cation gradient. Ion gradients facilitate nerve impulses. Ion transport across membranes can be as rapid as 1 million ions per second! Only sodium and potassium cations can function in this crucial role. Chapter 5: Energy for Cells After the execution, Nail and Faruk arrive at Ova’s home and reunites Memo with her. Nail reveals that one of the cellmates volunteered to secretly take Memo's place in the gallows to ensure Memo escapes from jail and that Askorozlu arranged for his accomplices on the outside to delay the officer's arrival to ensure he does not realize the deception, while Nail and Faruk arranged for the leaders of other prison gangs to stage a riot to distract the other guards while Memo escapes. Nail and Faruk assist Memo and Ova in fleeing the country on a boat to seek asylum abroad. Cells also move in many diverse ways. E. coli travel by the propeller-like action of the bacterial flagellum. Others do so via the beating action of cilia. Some creep and crawl. Some put out pseudopodia and grasp small objects in their immediate vicinity.In this review, I’ll cover the aspects of Denton’s book that reveal the fine-tuning of chemistry for life. 5 The film being a Philippine adaptation of a South Korean film is set in the Philippines. The protagonists' residence is situated somewhere along the Marikina River. Several other aspects of the film were changed from the source material including the names of the characters. [3] The prison which served as the main setting of the Philippine adaptation was filmed in a sound stage in Cainta, Rizal. [7] To briefly summarize before moving on to the final metal in this chapter: One metal, manganese, gives us oxygen. Two other metals, iron and copper, give us electron transport chains, proton pumping, and ATP. The oxidation of hydrocarbons in the mitochondria gives us H 2O and CO 2. And CO 2 requires another metal atom, zinc, if it is to be excreted from the body in the lungs. Together these provide powerful evidence for a stunning prior fitness in nature for aerobic life. As far as Dr. Benton’s premise of a “unique fitness of nature” for cell creation, I’m not convinced he made his case. Certainly the cell is a marvelous creation – but stars just go about their business, adding one proton and one neutron at a time to create one element after another according to the periodic table. The step-wise nature of this building of the different atoms ensures that there will be electrical affinities and electrical repulsions between different atoms, resulting in some remarkable molecules.

When it comes to the question of the ‘origin of life’, Dr. Denton’s book elevates ‘the problem’ to a whole new level with implications perplexing to some and affirming to others. The unique fitness of the cell to serve as the fundamental unit of life is also manifest in its amazing abilities and the diversity of functions it performs. Even the tiny E. coli, a cylinder-shaped bacterium in the human gut, has spectacular capabilities. Howard Berg has marveled at the versatility and capacities of this minuscule organism, calling its talents “legion.” He notes that this tiny organism, less than one-millionth of a meter in diameter and two-millionths of a meter long, so small that “20 would fit end-to-end in a single rod cell of the human retina,” is nevertheless “adept at counting molecules of specific sugars, amino acids, or dipeptides; at integration of similar or dissimilar sensory inputs over space and time; at comparing counts taken over the recent and not so recent past; at triggering an all-or-nothing response; at swimming in a viscous medium… even pattern formation.” Cells also move in many diverse ways. E. coli travel by the propeller- like action of the bacterial flagellum. Others do so via the beating action of cilia. Some creep and crawl. Some put out pseudopodia and grasp small objects in their immediate vicinity.Let's ask another question, which by itself refutes the theory of evolution straight away; does the "wisdom" displayed in the aforementioned functions belong to the cell membrane? The elements sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, and zinc all play essential roles in the cell. Might there be fine tuning in nature not just for the existence of the cell but also for its origin—for the transition from a lifeless soup of chemicals to a living cell? Or was the first cell engineered by an intelligent agent, as many advocates of intelligent design maintain? I touch on that question in Chapter 8, but in either case, the emergence of primeval life would be by design, whether imposed on nature at the origin of the first life, or built into the fabric of nature from the beginning.

All cells need energy. They need energy to carry out their varied functional repertoire, including many different enzymatic actions, synthesizing their complement of proteins, lipids and DNA, and pumping ions across the cell membrane. They need energy to move, crawl over the substratum, and transport materials inside the cell, with molecular motors carrying cargoes along microtubules or actin filaments. Most of these activities—from crawling to synthesizing proteins and other polymers such as DNA—can only proceed if chemical energy is put into the system. Generating and using energy is thus basic to all of cell biology. Miracle in Cell No. 7' third most-viewed Korean film". Yonhap. 15 March 2013 . Retrieved 2013-03-20. And as it turns out, the bond energies of bonds made from carbon bound to various elements are similar. The result is that these bonds have similar stabilities under ambient conditions and similar reactivities when transformed by an enzyme; carbon is unique in this.

My specialty is water behaviour, and here too, Denton explains the Wonders of Water as the matrix of life (Miracle of the Cell) and more broadly in another book ‘The Wonder of Water’ in his ‘Privileged Species Series’. Both delightful – ‘must reads’!! Distributed and produced by Viva Films, [5] the film premiered on December 25, 2019, as one of the eight official entries to the 2019 Metro Manila Film Festival. Aga Muhlach's character is the counterpart of Yong-gu of the original Korean film while Bela Padilla's character was the counterpart of Yong-gu's daughter Ye-seung. [4] Among the challenge of posed by the adaptation process is how a faithful depiction of Philippine prisons would affect the film's plot. In the original South Korean film, the prisons were closed confinements with metal doors while in the Philippines prisons are less restrictive with metal railings instead which would pose problem on how the lead character's fellow inmates would hide his daughter from the jail wardens. The Philippine film also had less focus on the trial portion compared to its South Korean counterpart. [3] Many proteins are found inserted into cell membranes. How proteins fold is critical to the operation of some enzymes. The twenty amino acids that make proteins can be divided into hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups, depending on the nature of their side chains. When a protein is placed into water, the hydrophilic amino acids strive to be on the surface near the water while the hydrophobic amino acids prefer to move away from the water by grouping together. Thus, the protein assumes a shape that maximizes the interaction of the hydrophilic amino acids with water while at the same time moving the nonpolar amino acids together away from the water. The resulting 3D shape is crucial to the proper functioning of the protein. If the electronegativities of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen had been different, proteins would not fold correctly and life as we know it would not exist.
