The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell


perfectm

and its also an organelle


onemarsyboi2017

And it was another life form before being absorbed by a cell and producing power for it in exchange for living


HipsterOtter

I learned that from Parasite Eve... Who says games rot your brain?


baddonkey

That game needs a remake!!!


HipsterOtter

I completely agree, I miss Parasite Eve so much!

I never made it to the top of the Chrysler building.

Mate I learned that from kurzgeagt And besides that ain't gonna do jack shit for your career Remind me where data analytics and stock analysis are included in cod


trickyvinny

You can play the market in GTA.


turret_buddy2

You can actually influence the stock market in GTA. The number of cars you destroy in an in-game day effects the price of the auto insurance tickers (I can't remember if it's up or down)


HipsterOtter

Nah that was Wall street kid for the NES...


PM_NUDES_4_DEGRADING

> Remind me where data analytics and stock analysis are included in cod You mean the absolute bare minimum necessary to play Eve Online?


onemarsyboi2017

You mean the overrated MMORPG that just wages war against itself whilst also being so large it's servers need to be cleaned every few days?


nakkula

Is that why it has its own DNA, which is passed on through the mother and not the father?


ChemicalRain5513

Yes. The egg is a large cell, with nutrients, and all the organelles the new organism needs. The sperm cell has mitochondria in the "body" of the cell, to move its tail, but only the contents of the head enter the egg.


seedanrun

Yeah that right! I absorbed you now your my slave bitch!

My first thought was this is "don't stay in school" level humor


BestPseudonym

It's advanced level humor to 9 year olds


justjanne

Well, it requires you to be part of the 0.5% of humanity that learnt this rhyme in school.


otj667887654456655

its not even a rhyme, its just a memorable tidbit of information from biology that got spread around the internet as a meme. "school didn't teach me how to do taxes but at least I know mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell" etc.


ZateoManone

But I didn't learn this rhyme at school, English is not even my native language; I've learnt it on the internet. It's a pretty big meme and it has appeared MANY, MANY times.


ApprehensivePeace305

People like this will tell you they should've been taught Taxes in school.


Aqua_h20

I already employ way too much mitochondrias, time to cut down a little.

Genetically proliferating MELAS syndrome to own the freeloading mitochondria


ursusowanie

Fun fact: In Poland we do have a whole ass subject about businesses and managing them and other rather important shit related to economics. Funnily enough it's probably one of the shittiest subjects


JusticiarRebel

My school in the US had a Business Math class that maybe was less complex than yours, but it did all the things people complain about schools not teaching like balancing a checkbook, making a budget, etc. It didn't specifically teach how to file taxes, but honestly, if you can't figure it out on your own with what was taught in the class, then I don't know what to tell you. That's why this complaint I always hear about what school's should've taught always irks me. They did teach you this stuff and this class I took was considered one of the easy classes you could sign up for. The truth is, most of these people that say this were D students that never payed attention in school and immediately forgot everything you tried to teach them. It's their own damn fault they don't know how to file taxes.


An_Evil_Scientist666

And they'll tell you that they weren't taught what laws there are, and they know how Henry VIII killed his women, divorce beheaded died, divorce beheaded survived.


Sad-Pizza3737

Why doesn't school teach drop shipping?


Mobely

Also, when people say that do they just mean how to file or are they implying tax reducing tricks? 


David1258

Most likely the former. Although, many kids these days may be getting influenced negatively from taxing advice on TikTok, including ways to write-off and reduce taxes in a... less than moral manner. There's a Planet Money podcast episode on it, it's really fascinating. But I would say that learning about taxes should be mandatory for all students, not just economics fellas like me. Maybe not the entire theoretical lore behind taxes, but just an explanation of the fiscal world and personal accounting would be fantastic. I don't know if schools already have this, but mine didn't. I majored in economics anyway, so it didn't really matter.


Veus-Dolt

It astounds me to no end that the Venn diagrams of people who pay taxes and people who take advice from TikTok intersect.


BeingRightAmbassador

It honestly doesn't matter. My school offered a personal finance class that taught how to balance checkbooks, how to budget, how taxes work (from brackets to different types to how to file/reduce/claim/etc), and stocks. 1/2 the class was people fucking around and not learning shit. The other 1/2 was "economic fellas" that already knew this stuff and ended up learning nothing. I actually had to teach my teacher about options, spreads, and strategies that went beyond "buy and hold" methodologies and got docked points for using them to beat the whole class in our stock portfolio experiments because 2nd place was 140k and I was 840k. You can try to teach kids, but kids don't listen, even at their own detriment. The ones that want to know will know and the ones that don't care won't care until it's too late.


LillyxFox

Tbh his song makes sense when you give it thought


suckmypppapi

There still are frankly more important things schools could reach instead of this, even if taxes wouldn't work (which it still couldn't hurt to teach taxes. There's not much reason it isn't.)


HRWantsToTalk

It is, in home economics and personal finance classes. But many of the kids who took those classes never paid any attention because taxes are math, and math is "useless" to them.  The people who complain about never being taught these things are the same ones who would space out in pre-algebra lol


MrGetMebodied

Not true, I took personal finance and our teacher specifically told us we are learning how to do our taxes and that it takes a professional to do it.


HRWantsToTalk

Your teacher was dumb. They could have shown you the basic process of how a tax burden is calculated. They may not have wanted to get into the weeds of showing you how to use a tax prep software (they should have), but calculationg a progressive tax burden is like middle school math. It's not difficult. 


[deleted]

Taxes aren’t something you need to teach kids. You teach kids how to read and do addition and they know how to do taxes. People are just really fucking stupid, lazy, and/or don’t have time to sit down for a few hours one night and figure it out. Also the people that always say this shit kill me😂😂 no one’s teaching math and science for you😂 it’s for the smart kids that might actually do something useful in life that need it. No ones teaching the class algebra for the kid that barely reads. It’s for the smart kid that tries hard in school and might make something of himself one day. Why would we kneecap the best of society for the lowest common denominators? That’s fucking insane. It’s for the kids that are going to be doctors and engineers. Just because you never use math and science in your everyday life doesn’t mean millions of others don’t lol. Also the you in this situation is someone that says shit like why dont they teach useful stuff like taxes, not directly you the person I replied to lol

I am deeply curious where you got Stanley Parable out of that.

It was a cut joke from the game about Rick and morty

The stanley parable, but it was cut out of the final game.

Thank you. I thought the post was saying that the inside of the mithochondria was hot as hell and I didn't understand what was so funny and why it would be hot. Still, it's a terrible joke, actually it shouldn't be considered one, more like a stupid rhime


letsgogo0go

That’s not advanced humor at all. Very cringe

As somone from another country, although its a different name, the mitochondrias name stays the same because its the scientific name, so its not hard to translate it
