when we say they're never giving up every weekend on d w. we cons exactly say that we treat the people and world with respect. we are constantly exploring science at every opportunity and we try to optimize them through breeding engineers like modification. the shots are extremely sensitive to external factors like noise, for example, the hello and welcome to tomorrow. today d, w, science magazine. most people don't get enough credit. that's
8:31 am
a mistake because these extensively simple life phones have many amazing abilities of tool for them. it's also a question of easing o. b need to around $800.00 tons. bases are kind of varies. they can catch flies and can even eat small pieces of meat and they display a large variety of different strategies for catching prey. carnivorous plants everywhere you look 36 years ago, then file kind of founded the carnivorous plant nursery in the south western town, a fine time now the largest in germany. and no one knows better than he does how the mysterious plants catch their prey. these carnivores all employed very different strategies. sorry, seni or for example, such a pitfall trap or yeah. on the plan. so for
8:32 am
each nectar year at the edge of the end year at the mouth, so to speak. next task associated with then mcdonald and then nectar. attracts the insects inside, they land, lonestar, blinking are quite enthusiastic about it. like some more and more and more then the plant i'm, it's a gas on which makes the insect a little bit dizzy must intake. and so p c and the to, to continue to look the nectar and, but there are a little hair, some of the tubes which are directly downwards. that means it's easy to go down. but the sliding back up is difficult, almost impossible for the flies hinesville. and cool, click on it yet, and at some point they just fall in and are gone. it's amazing that the behind has evolved so cleverly at 6 and bigger talk this one on calculus. there are countless species of bizarre as many of gina's in many different colors. these flowers even use its blossoms to catch prey. this particular strategy is that they bloom 1st,
8:33 am
so the insects come to palm and a den boy, and then when the blossom and weather after they forms 200 feet on the insects 2 or 3 weeks later, for additional no trails veda only doubts. who is that? position now and so become an attendees, also known as tropical picture plants. use pitfall traps as well. sweet nectar on the smooth picture. rim attracts the insects which then fall into a liquid containing digestive enzymes where they drowned and are digested. some plants have even develop letters to lower amps, for example, into their deadly trap. other carnivores used so called glue traps. yes, and you see it fine. so now we're here with the sun. new plant instead catches insects by attracting them to it's due to the sun. do refers to the adhesive droplets that glisten in the sun on the insects then fly onto them out. they smell interesting. but once they're on it,
8:34 am
they get stuck to the adhesive droplets. these tend to goes and push the insect to the middle of the leon, just intake out to apply the sometimes the leaf and crows around the insect, and enzyme struck digesting the tract. pray on the phone to avoid it. so if at that one, butter word also catches small insects with a sticky liquid on its leaves and the more prey it absorbs, the more it grows and blossoms. the best known carnivores, bc's is bertina, slide tribe. it closes its catching pedals around the pray originating from the us east coast. even charles darwin was fascinated with this plants. deadly snapped traps. so shy that look trying to create nectar and it's travis, that's it. and there are small contact chairs inside the bend. if you can, i'm, when the flies look the nectar, they automatically activate these contact chairs,
8:35 am
not mac, suggest it's on the 1st time it happens. the plant registers items are in the 2nd time. the plant sense is that there must be something in there. stealing gets nectar climb so it snaps shut. i'm eyes that kind of house could identify. so very small prey like ads can still climb out to see your competition, newman, but a fat house. why can't some of the plans and the lose least, as i said now the plan performs and analysis is what i called protein, which are not enough feed out. or is this? if not, it will open up overnight to the pray hours to spin into my hours for sheet, and if it is protein rich and then the plant begins to digest it in the stuff of household and in the plaza. carnivorous plants are an amazing example of some of nature's most sophisticated techniques. now onto the plants that humans eat. according to a study by the world economic forum, the number of people living on a plan face died is decreasing,
8:36 am
especially in highly population countries like india and china. on the other hand, in gemini and other western countries, the number of people giving up meat is on the rise. some people explained the shift by claiming that plant based on so healthy it. but is that really true? a diet without any need or gary product. some would code mountain nutrition and others completely healthy. lots of people have an opinion, but if you have all the data, the nutritional scientist model is cather has been researching client base nutrition for 25 years. keller, who is reagan, says that a vegan diet is in itself neither healthy nor unhealthy. the gun comes in because of thinking died can be very healthy if it's done right to die. you can also eat a very, very unhealthy vegan diet as cost a mix died is better than a bad reading diet. but very often it's the other way around. the deacons put more
8:37 am
thought into their food. they are better informed and to make more wholesome food choices. while how many studies over the years have shown that too much me, especially processed meat is bad for your health. it's also been shown that a diet containing plan based foods is healthier at university hospital in band. we meet via bobby, the nutritionist is a senior physician and professor of nutrition and metabolism at the university of bound. in her daily work at the hospital, she notices time and time again. the positive effects of a vegan diet was adult while musa, very apparent, in people's blood sugar levels. just a moment, plus with a much better profiles when people increase the amount of fiber they eat, fish, the narcotics for us and all that comes automatically when you eat
8:38 am
a healthy vegan diet, like on the nod. and you can definitely see the positive effects on cluster all levels that come with the who's not had a full safety fee bid. click official plan secondary compounds play an important role. they come from vegetables. fruits like you are nuts and gift plaid based fluids, their color, they have a positive effect on health, their anti inflammatory antioxidant, and can even reduce the risk of cancer. a plant based diet also provides other valuable substances. a safe, not ex faucet, a or dietary fibers have a great a fact with these they positively influence the micro biome, dots for the whole. in general, the quality of carbohydrates is much better if you eat chick peas and lagoons or nuts with valuable fatty acids on slack fully fed to, to or hayes. but what about eating a purely vegan diet?
8:39 am
the nutrition expert is reserved in her response. there's always the risk of a nutritional deficit, and especially when it comes to vitamin b 12, it's needed for cell division and blood formation. and it's pretty much only found in animal products. in a strictly, fagan died. b 12 has to be supplemented in order to avoid the deficiency. in addition to b 12, there can also be deficits in calcium and don't make good 3 fatty acids showing that crosby quick color is always the question of how well we absorb a nutrients within the natural. what is the bioavailability of these do trans hall actions? you have to be pretty knowledgeable about that. what contains, what, how do you combine fluids and how can you prepare the meal to make iron think it's lenae a more available best associated bodies. what about omitting gary products?
8:40 am
the health benefits on clear cotton cheese for example, often contains large quantities of fat. but to meeting them removes an important source of nutrients like calcium and iodine. studies provide evidence of reduced bone density in begins. but in the long term of you can die. i can have a positive influence on our health, for example, by reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. and there are indications that the risk of cancer might be reduced as well. for example, colon cancer, physicals and student, the type of the, the files i need, the big studies definitely indicates the same thing that it reduces the risk of diabetes. you know, i've seen it over and over again in cross sectional studies. and in smaller cohort studies. i'm so there's a strong indication of a causal relationship, doc, i invite style stuff so. so what does this cost cause it can be done? this is on the switch. medical expert says that eating a vegan diet requires
8:41 am
a large amount of nutritional knowledge, falls less hazel. i think degree at a quote integrating plant base foods in your die. it always makes good sense of the law. the show is usually that law, all the data does it show that it has to be a purely beacon diet to read the benefit? let's make on say a no more then 50 at reagan nutrition is possible and can have a positive influence on your health. but it's not the only healthy way of eating the something that's perhaps even more controversial is the consumption of genetically modified crops. nearly 20 years ago, the n t much tomorrow also became the world's 1st genetically modified organisms to be marketed for consumption boss. it didn't appeal to consumers in the us and costs because they were afraid of eating genetically modified food. it has to be pulled
8:42 am
from the markets, but efforts to genetically optimize tomatoes, continue these to monetize and up to step tiffany normal. but homeless and have magical powers, they've been edited to produce victim indeed, scientist hope these plans will help to fight, to very wide spread like a victim indeed. and humans, one of the world's major health problems. the research team and u. k. genetically manipulated the tomatoes with tiny genetic scissors. cool, crisp a cus 9. you can see here in a few trial week row of the waltz motto, which is now at just as motto, and so our basements, each motto in parallel, to recover this. how the difference within is that good thing is in tomato we didn't see any you loss or growth defects for those. so i, this is most of clause and it just takes like tomatoes to make these tomatoes, the scientists fuse the domestic scissors and change the molecule that tomatoes
8:43 am
already have. prove it to me in d. 3, a close relative victim indeed. pivots, wendy, is actually building local victim indeed. all victim indeed 3 to be exact. that's what i've, what he needs normally an enzyme, blue color will occur in the tomato yourselves. would you use the private timidity to produce another molecule collateral? but the genetics is stop the enzyme in its tracks. that means business as usual for private. mindy 3 permits men. d 3 cannot be used to build victim. indeed. ready when private men d 3 is hit by the sun's rays, it's magically transformed into victim. indeed 3, that's the one we need to stay healthy. the modified victim,
8:44 am
indeed tomato plants work just like the regular relatives. that's what the research is. claim. the seeds which carry the genetics seem to be photo and should go on to produce more plants with the bits meant in the. ready each gene edited fruit has around 2 micrograms of victim, indeed inside it, between 2 and a half and 7 of these tomatoes daily would provide us with the amount recommended by w. h. of the good news is to mazda is a popular in 2021. 189000000 metric tons with produced globally mold and sugar, but not as williams, but not everybody's open to domestic deals to the food. in fact, how for the public think it's on the safe. that's what the pew research center found when they asked people in 20 countries between the years 2019 and 2020 the way the richmond
8:45 am
d tomatoes was produced with the genetic says as though it's close to tonight. so then you might think that's what the scientists claim those mutations are called naturally equivalent. that's means it could happen in nature. the natural process. i think that's the beauty of searching. i just thing you don't bring any for an james in the to month regina them. so they are the that is has been fixed in the some authors. you know, there's no other things can happen in those tomato lines. need to match the nines and now being tested in the field trials to see if they have any growth defects. and if they haven't, equipment harvest, they're also being tested on humans to see if they can absorb the victim. indeed, if need to also succeed, they might play a role in fighting the like a victim in the world wide. a basement deficiency is a big house problem globally. and approximately 1000000 people worldwide stuff us from basement the insufficiency measuring and developing countries or they're not
8:46 am
developing countries. so the problem is we have very limited food source of basement, the, especially basement these rate only a few foods have consequential amounts. if it's him in the inside, for example, fish an x, the how skin canals type adjacent amount of victim indeed itself. but i need to get some of some lights and it's hard to get sufficient amounts to determine from the source of the name the victim. indeed is vital for many, for the functions that helps the body of so calcium and phosphate essential for binding strength strung bones and necessary to support the weights of our in bodies and to move to run on surround without enough victim. indeed, funds become portal and break much more anthony deficiency and victim indeed has
8:47 am
also been linked to a number of illnesses including depression. now the scientists type these tomatoes could help a number of people people with duck committed skiing with how problem of, of self easily be lights which is essential to produces the size of basement d, y human. so that's why they would think of africa also. um is, has a relatively high but some deficiency rates in the, in their population and researches and looking at different ways to use the genetic editing technique to possibly engineered in tomatoes also existing in other. so the next just crops and such as pep to for to so an over james. so this up i suppose of also a post both to be either said was accumulated to the amount of for pro bisman dease rate. that's also the work of the car in
8:48 am
a moment. the tomato still need to pass clinical trials and off to it, there's no guarantee that there's some 1000000000 people that can victim indeed would eat them. but if the to most of succeed, the hope is fewer people would suffer from victim indeed efficiency if i would let is read, why do you have a science question? send it to us in a video text or voice message. if we don't do it on the show, we'll send you a little surprised as a thank you on just task this week, august, and comes from a how much below yellow from sierra leone. the how does no is upset to plants, the,
8:49 am
the world has been getting louder for decades. and it's not just humans and animals that suffer from the increasing noise levels. so do plans. they don't have years, but they can still receive sound waves. plants produce messenger substances that they use to transport sensory stimuli to their organs by a network of these things. in 6 use the same process, these beat their wings at the very specific frequencies to stimulate the release of common in certain plans. this evening, primrose responds to buzzing sounds. within minutes of detecting these are months, the sugar content and it's nectar increases by up to 20 percent. the studies have shown that fail. chris can even distinguish between certain
8:50 am
sounds and tones. whenever the plan sensitive predator gets a created toxins to protect itself, but the vibrations of the wind didn't trigger the defense mechanism. experiments have shown that sounds can even change the activity of genes after 5 days of continuous noise. the activity of several genes change in the sale, chris and the activity of photosynthesis decreased. the noise also affects plants by animals because it scares away birds and pollinating insect researches in the us study the long term consequences. over a period of 15 years, they looked at the vegetation in quiet regions in places where a noise source had been removed. and in areas that had been subjected to the
8:51 am
constant noise of natural gas mining before the study began, of the comparison of the 3 areas showed that constant noise decreased the biodiversity of vegetation. in the loud areas, a certain pine had diminished by 75 percent. juniper trees need jays to spread their seats for reproduction. but the jays didn't return to areas after the noise source had been removed. other species had grown in place of the universe, which shows that noise can have long term effects on plants, the now for something completely different. when lions rule, they mocking the 2 or 3. but that doesn't always make it easy to determine the location. students at the design, university of technology have developed
8:52 am
a digital acoustic device that can locate loud animals up to 500 meters away and they tested it on housing rolls. the this sound has given us chills since the dawn of time, the wolf. how is also an important sound for the game keepers who monitor them but keeping a close watch over them around the clock is impossible. a trip to the outs where the game keeper is out with a young entrepreneur named olivia staley. staley wants to help gain keepers monitor wolds more efficiently with the help of artificial intelligence and a special device, wildlife, a wild life and box can automatically locate, will not buy their housing food. the housing of wolves can be heard for more than 3
8:53 am
kilometers away. so we can cover large areas completely cheaply and automatically when the house has been detected, it sends a message to the game keeper in real time, the sort a live device that's daily developed. can locate a wolf's how to an accuracy of 500 meters. in my mind from many animal monitoring with methods require human made tools like photo traps space full moves in particular. can sometimes allude us exist. they remember with photo traps are because they don't like the flash or the sounds they make so. so they go around the photo traps on with our method people, we want to trick the woods by engaging in their methods of communication. and that way we can collect the data and photo feet and on this i'm sol dot the summer. and then we can actually cover this whole area here on so it could be complex at the switch. federal institute of technology and most on stanley developed
8:54 am
a device with 3 other students. they've set up 30 devices in the area for their research. noah schmidt is the company's technical manager to see that you should this is what we call the smart mike. it's a device based on the raspberry pi, a mini computer you have to, they're still in the computer. it has gps and cellular reception, which is used to transmit the audio. well that i would do the books on the video. the sounds are sent to the servers and the audio files are converted into images. ringback artificial intelligence evaluates the images and identifies whether or not it's a wolf cell who, if a wolf is located a gatekeeper gets a notification immediately, according to game cheaper, michael bonds at the devices could be used to prevent wolf attacks in monitor pac formation to the device could also assist with shootings

through, let them know the sooner they should start the pack is a special protection status it up to the device. it tells you where the pack is for you and you can determine if a female is woods the pack moon and seeing which direction they're moving to home. and i don't know. and so if you know with the pack is, you know, you have to be careful about shooting loan wolves around this room was, but it was supposed to meet them and know it's really helpful with associated fee low through citizens. for staley says several swiss regions are interested in the product as, as the world wildlife fund it's use doesn't have to be limited to europe. may have to commit to submit this, make them affordable. we discovered that this works for more than just the walls and pay this push. we were in south africa in the spring and tested it on elephants, the lions, and hi eunice. and it working to me a bottom being told from continue last name to the from the artificial intelligence could make handling wild animals much easier in the future.
