"As with human language, bacteria possess a lexicon, or vocabulary, of possible signals with wich to communicate the various signaling chemicals they produce and recognise, such as those used in quorum sensing. And the meaning conveyed through these signals depends strongly on the semantic context. Bacteria carry internal information reflecting their history as well as current external conditions, and can respond to the same signal in different ways at different times, showing a rich behavioural repertoire."

Nekas tāds, protams, bet interesanti. Baktērijas tak galu galā, nevis delfīni.
