What's with americans and mitochondria ?

Grew up in Asia. Only moved to the US for undergrad... And this applies. So it's not just the Americans methinks.

That's interesting

We don't have that where I live, sure we had to learn the organelles of a cell, but there was no über-focusing on the mitochondria.

(Btw I didn't know about "methinks". Learned a new word, thanks !)

Methinks you have to use the phrase, "methinks" more often!
