Since we are all full of microplastics, does that mean we are part dinosaur?
I’d say no, because the microplastics aren’t really a part of it DNA. But that’s just my definition.
I think we could say that we all have dinosaurs inside us, just like our pesky skeletons.
@ProfessorProteus @_haha_oh_wow_ Given that there’s a finite number of carbon atoms & water molecules etc on the planet (setting aside the stuff that arrives on meteorites etc), there’s no doubt that in your body, & almost certainly in the steak or salad or whatever you’re eating, there’ll be some molecules that were inside a few dinosaurs, & quite possibly passed through the guts of one & of various other animals too (from the Hadean to a few days ago) at some point.
