Professor Norman:
For primitive beings like us, life seems to have only one single purpose: gaining time. And it is going through time that seems to be also the only real purpose of each of the cells in our bodies. To achieve that aim, the mass of the cells that make up earthworms and human beings has only two solutions. Be immortal, or to reproduce. If its habitat is not sufficiently favorable or nurturing, the cell will choose immortality. In other words, self-sufficiency and self-management. On the other hand, if the habitat is favorable, they will choose to reproduce. That way, when they die, they hand down essential information and knowledge to the next cell. Which hands it down to the next cell and so on. Thus knowledge and learning are handed down through time

For primitive beings like us life seems to have only one single purpose
00:00:06.005 --> 00:00:07.079
gaining time
00:00:08.079 --> 00:00:12.026
And it is going through time that seems to be also
00:00:12.034 --> 00:00:15.038
the only real purpose of each of the cells in our bodies
00:00:16.014 --> 00:00:18.008
To achieve that aim the mass of the cells
00:00:18.097 --> 00:00:21.006
that make up earthworms and human beings
00:00:21.068 --> 00:00:24.035
has only two solutions
00:00:24.069 --> 00:00:26.077
Be immortal
00:00:26.085 --> 00:00:29.999
or to reproduce
00:00:29.015 --> 00:00:30.019
If its habitat is not
00:00:30.027 --> 00:00:33.032
sufficiently favorable or nurturing
00:00:40.083 --> 00:00:43.999
The cell will choose immortality
00:00:43.016 --> 00:00:47.029
In other words self sufficiency and self management
00:00:47.088 --> 00:00:49.021
On the other hand
00:00:49.034 --> 00:00:51.013
if the habitat is favorable
00:00:56.003 --> 00:00:58.018
They will choose to reproduce
00:01:07.056 --> 00:01:09.094
That way when they die
00:01:10.996 --> 00:01:12.069
they hand down essential information and knowledge
00:01:12.086 --> 00:01:16.011
to the next cell which hands it down to the next cell and so on
00:01:28.037 --> 00:01:33.003
Thus knowledge and learning are handed down through time
