Bacteria's Eyes and Ears

Modern researchers are learning that bacteria are not a simple form of life. Rather, a bacterium is a tremendously complex creature that thinks. Scientists have discovered that bacteria actually have molecule-sized sensors. Some of these sensors act as eyes, while others act as ears. A dozen other proteins have been discovered that receive the information gathered by the bacteria's "eyes" and "ears." The collected information is then processed the same way your brain gathers and makes sense of information. Ref: Pietsch, Paul. 1983.
