IMMORTALITY OF MULTICELLULAR ORGANISMS

I have known for a while that Living Organisms need energy to work and that a vast amount of the energy needed to work by these Living Organisms is produced by the Sun, absorbed by Plants, eaten by animals and converted to Heat, Chemical, and Mechanical Energy which is regulated by the bodies of Living Organisms.

I have also been aware of the theory governing Hibernation of some Living Organisms during Winter where they slow their metabolism to a crawl, halt their body functions by sealing off some of their higher brain functions and thus fall into a sleep like state.

There are some Living Organisms that take this to an extreme entering a Zombie-like state between Life and Death in extreme conditions. These creatures are called extremophiles.

However, I also learned that these extremophiles are mostly unicellular organisms and this state would be unlikely to be replicated in multicellular organisms due to their more complex structure however, I have seen this state being exhibited by some species of frogs which are multicellular organisms. (Thank NatGeo for that!)

Then there is the quantum mechanical phenomenon where particles begin to exhibit Wave-like properties at extremely low temperatures namely Absolute Zero. This caused me to wonder if there is a connection between the Transition Of Particles to Waves at Absolute Zero and the seeming 'immortality' of these Living Creatures at extremely Low Temperatures. Since Living Cells are also made of atoms, that would mean that extremely low temperatures could cause them to exhibit the property of Waves as well. In other words, the atoms or particles in these Living Cells should be able to transition into Waves under certain conditions. Like the body being converted into a spiritual form (Lolz).

However, I was still confronted by the problem that this phenomenon was mostly exhibited by Unicellular(Lolz, you'll get the joke later) Living Organisms (though I have heard of this trait being exhibited by cold blooded frogs! Trolololz).

Bears to an extent exhibit this phenomenon during Winter so two things came to mind. One of them was the theory of the Conservation Of Energy (where energy is conserved). By slowing their metabolism to a crawl, bears utilize their remaining energy in the most efficient manner possible but different(multicellular) organs would require different amounts of energy to function properly so the energy would be spread over the body in a disparate manner.

I have thus concluded that this disparity in energy distribution amongst the organs in Multicellular Organisms must to an extent(a large extent) contribute to the complexity behind the reason as to their apparent 'Mortality' and why they can't access this so called 'Immortality' of 'Unicellular' Organisms. (I hope by now you've got the joke. If you haven't you'll really hate yourself later).

Then like a bolt from the blue, a sudden thought occurred to me (actually from a Dream about a clock counting down), could the answer possibly be in both Quantum and Classical Mechanics? In Quantum Mechanics, the answer would be in the phenomena of Quantum Entanglement and the Transition Of Particles into Waves at extremely low temperatures (or via some other phenomena possibly). However, in Classical Mechanics, the solution to the problem might lie in the theory of Equilibrium! (You better get it the first time 'cos I'm not gonna repeat myself!)

In Physics, it's said 'Equilibrium is when forces acting on a body are equal and the system does not change' (Coincidentally).

In Chemistry, 'Equilibrium is a condition in which the proportion of the chemicals reacting together and the products being formed is constant(do you get it?!) and the products being formed is constant because the rate or speed of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction'. (Definitions From Geddes And Grosset Science Dictionary).

It is also said that Equilibrium is affected by changes in pressure, temperature and concentration but is not affected by the addition of a catalyst which only affects the speed of the reaction.

So I thought what if the Living Cells were put in a state where their particles begin to exhibit the property of Waves, then through the phenomena of Entanglement, the entire cell or group of cells is placed in a state of Equilibrium? (Now wouldn't that be interesting to see. Mad Scientist Mode Activated!)

Would that be enough to bypass the complexities caused by multicellular organisms that were hindering them from achieving the 'Immortal State' of Unicellular Organisms?
