Mutations Memes

The cellular justice system takes no prisoners! When a cell botches mitosis (the process of cell division) and ends up with mutations, it triggers the body's quality control mechanism known as apoptosis—programmed cell death. It's like the cell's own self-destruct sequence that eliminates potentially dangerous mutated cells before they can cause problems like cancer. The meme brilliantly personifies apoptosis as a merciless executioner, coldly informing the mutated cell of its impending doom. Your body literally kills billions of its own cells daily through this process to keep you healthy. Talk about ruthless efficiency!

Hollywood would have you believe a single mutation turns you into a bloodthirsty werewolf with anger management issues. Meanwhile, actual genetic mutations gave us Golden Retrievers—basically wolves that evolved to perfect the art of being everyone's best friend. Reality check: most mutations just tweak protein production or give you weird thumbs, not supernatural powers. The scientific disappointment is immeasurable. Next you'll tell me radioactive spiders don't grant wall-climbing abilities!
