• Resumen

  • Tennenhouse focuses on several studies regarding slime mould which are formed when many single cells, each with their own distinct DNA, mingle and fuse and the resulting yellow blob can grow to a few square metres, and is just one enormous cell containing thousands of nuclei. Among them includes, an experiment conducted by Audrey Dussutour of the University of Toulouse, France where she prepared a feast of blended oats and placed it strategically out of reach, save for a bridge that the slime moulds and founds the ability of moulds to learn despite the lack of neuron.
