Researching the 2.5 million reference to microtubules I found this neat page:

"The following is a quote from Ernest Haeckel:

“ ‘not composed of any organs at all, but consist entirely of shapeless, simplehomogeneous matter … nothing more than a shapeless, mobile, little lump of mucus or slime, consisting of albuminous combination of carbon.’[3] ”

On the other hand, 21st century technology reveals that although the tiniest bacterial cells are incredibly small, weighing less than 10-12 grams (or 1 picogram)[4], the entire cell is incredibly integrated and each part works as part of a team.

Cell biology illustrates overwhelming evidence of intelligent design; in particular, due to the many irreducibly complex molecular machines. Cells are so tremendously complicated that we are only beginning to understand their internal workings, and indeed many functions within the cell still remain a total mystery.

An analogy sometimes used, is the comparison of a cell to a city. For instance, the workers can be compared to the protein, the powerplant to the mitochondria, the roads to the actin fibres and microtubules, the trucks to the Kinosin and Dynein, the factories to the ribosomes, the library to the nucleic acid, the recycling centre to the Lysosome, the police to the chaperones, and the post office to the golgi apparatus.

As technology increases, science continuously opens black boxes within already opened ones, and as more and more of these are being exposed, the phenomenal complexity of the whole system pushes evolutionary theories to breaking point."

Neat how such complexity evolved from earlier forms, isn’t it? Amazing how long hundreds of millions of years really is, isn’t it? Nearly inconceivable for some people, it’s so far out of our human daily experience.
