Very specialized material that the abalone self assembles, millions of abalone, all the time, every day, every year.

This is abalone.

Now, going back to the abalone shell, the abalone makes this shell by having these proteins.

I brought along with me an abalone shell.

And why?

Very specialized material that the abalone self assembles, millions of abalone, all the time, every day, every year.

The abalone shell here.

Now, millions of abalone every year make this shell.

I would like abalone porridge, with grilled green tea mountain roots.

And a lot of people might use structures like abalone shells, like chalk.

And a lot of people might use structures like abalone shells,

And so, going back to this abalone shell, besides being nano structured, one thing that's fascinating, is when a male and a female abalone get together, they pass on the genetic information that says, This is how to build an exquisite material.

It took them about 50 million years to learn how to perfect how to make that abalone shell.

And so, going back to this abalone shell, besides being nanostructured, one thing that's fascinating is, when a male and female abalone get together, they pass on the genetic information that says,

The abalone shell here and if you fracture it, you can look at the fact that it's nano structured.

Abalone is a shellfish, the meat of which is considered a delicacy in certain parts of the world.

What if they had some of the same capabilities that an abalone shell did, in terms of being able to build really exquisite structures at room temperature and room pressure, using nontoxic chemicals and adding no toxic materials back into the environment?

The genus Oenothera.

It's just sex.

Human beings are a social species.

These.

Well?

And why? Because the lowly abalone is able to lay down the calcium carbonate crystals in layers, making this beautiful, iridescent mother of pearl.

This abalone shell is a biocomposite material that's 98 percent by mass calcium carbonate and two percent by mass protein.

Nature didn't need to because, unlike the abalone shell, the survival of a species didn't depend on building those materials, until maybe now when it might just matter.

Calligonum is a genus of plants in the family Polygonaceae with about 80 species across the Mediterranean Sea region, Asia and North America.

Then get out.

Then leave.

Then you go ahead and believe that.

Don't then.

Alright then.

Then...

Then, promise me.

Bad ear.

It's bargain or nothing!

Safeconduct?

And then it's go, go, go.

Is that so?

Alrighty then.

Oh, right.

That's all right.

One is to try and work out the gender of the shark.

It's from a genus called Pachysoma.
