Page 4 — The Organism That Can “Solve Mazes”
Slime molds have been studied for decades.
And researchers discovered something unexpected.
In laboratory experiments, certain slime molds have shown:
- Basic problem-solving ability
- Memory of previous paths
- The ability to find efficient routes through mazes
No brain.
No nervous system.
No consciousness as we understand it.
Yet they can optimize paths toward food and avoid dead ends.
Scientists often describe this as a “primitive form of intelligence.”
Not thinking — but adapting.
That’s why slime molds fascinate biologists.
They blur the line between living systems and simple chemical reactions.
And they do all of this while quietly growing on tree bark, mulch… or house siding.
