Question

hello,
sometimes I am asking myself if there couldn't be a solution to aids in the insect world, especially the termites. supposing that it was originally only a tropical disease, combined with a specific feature of the termite : what it breads out, is methane (ch4) , instead of carbon dioxide. the reason why I want to share my question, is simply because I don't want to keep it for myself. I don't have aids, but I am sure, if I would have it, I would want to know everything about ants. the reason why I want to discuss by club russia, is because science is highly developped in your country. also the heart massage was invented in russia.

The liquids of insects contain a lot of secrets. Suppose that you can examine the "liver" of an insect.
A poisonous plant grows very often in the environs of a healthy plant with the positive contrary effect.
If swamp plants can play a role in finding a key. These are no definitive conclusions. it could be wrong too. I can't extremely proof something. besides, I am not a "scientist". I made paper in my free time. I just like to see the equilibrium in nature and to observe the weather. and to share my idea.

greetings,
bart_v

insects and many other tropical forms of life are very rich in secrets mankind has yet to explore. however, the insect does not have a live to speak of. insects are exoskeletal shells filled with the organic mush that keep them alive - mesoglea.

i wholeheartedly agree with you. nature seems to have endless secrets to give mankind. we just need to look harder and more diligently.

I think we can beat aids with a breakthrough in genetic engineering. GE seems to have the answer to all kinds of diseases. I believe that sooner or later they will manufacture some kind of hormones that will develop the natural immunity system to beat HIV. In time, but time is a problem here.

Cool

to mastodon, thank you for the reaction. it seems as new methods need to be developed for isolating parts of living organisms... when you have a lot of free time !

yes, gen-technology is apparently becoming a very strong method. when they can develop this in time. for the moment, I have fear of the gen-manipulation of tomatoes and maïs, because they are not sure about possible effects for cancer. but I also believe that it can in time replace a lot of other methods.
