35、t living thing.Now a team of scientists has used living cells from frog embryos(胚胎)and assembled(装配)them into entirely new life-forms. These millimeter-wide xenobots can move toward a specific target and heal themselves after being cut.These are novel living machines, says Joshua Bongard, a computer
36、 scientist and robotics expert at the University of Vermont who co-led the new research. Theyre neither a traditional robot nor a known species of animal.

37、rchers harvested the stem cells. They combined together well two different kinds of cells-heart and skin cells. The heart cells arc capable of expanding and shrinking, which aids the xenobot in locomotion, and the skin cells provide structure. Besides, they cant accomplish tasks without the help of
38、computers.By studying these curious organisms, researchers hope to learn more about the mysterious world of cellular communication. Plus, these kinds of robo-organisms could possibly be the key to drug delivery in the body or greener environmental cleanup techniques.Most technologies are made from s

When these xenobots finally do stop working, they fall apart harmlessly.Promising as these organisms are, when we start to mess around
