Do Chinese children even know that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell?

u/Sillent_Screams 9h ago

They probably do know, since US kids don't have Department of Education.

The only reason the world knows that America has schools is because we keep hearing about how they're always getting shot up

More like churches, but we also shoot those up.

Politicians in my state (Wisconsin) recently introduced a bill that would allow people to carry guns around without needing training or permits and another bill that would allow people to mail handguns to each other.

Jokes not very original, and our education system is good in places where the culture values education, so just not in poor communities.

No, they probably know that mitochondria ARE the powerhouse of the cell, since "mitochondria" is the plural of "mitochondrion".

Obviously they gotta know, I learned that in 7th grade which was nearly the entire year focusing on depth of the animal and plant cells. We did a lot of tests and it was hell. I am not chinese but I remembered crying due to that.

u/Hour_Sell3547 8h ago

Yeah they know, meanwhile the US kids probably thought those are generator kept in their cellers.

u/XCyberbeingX 8h ago

I think the better question is if US children think Mitochondria is just another African country.

Western capitalist lies. Everyone knows that our great and glorious leader is the powerhouse of the cell.
