4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

482 Creation or Evolution?

After learning almost all the languages ​​and words of Baixuelong, Lin found the slabs that Baixuelong used to record their history in the first time. These slates were placed in a corner of this room. Although the pillars in this corner looked obscure, But it recorded a lot of useful information ...

Lin also found many other records indicating that Bai Miaolong's "History" originally had many different versions, but after undergoing integration later, the version that Lin had just seen was finally formed.

The entire historical record is not very complicated, but it also explains what the Baimiaolong experienced in the end, and each experience has a chronological record on it.

Lin found that this group of white-skeletal dragons has spent at least two thousand years of history. Of course, these two thousand years are their 'years', which is calculated based on 1060 days and nights of the year.

If the records of Bai Miaolong are true, then they have developed for quite a long time from understanding the history of recording.

And their birth is inseparable from the "creator" mentioned in their history.

Lin found that in addition to historical records, there are many slates related to the creator. Most of them describe some of the creator ’s things, which are some stories imagined by thoughts, and there are quite a few. Lin can confirm that they are very Worship this creator.

In the mind of Bai Miaolong, this creator is omnipotent, it has extremely powerful power, can create life, can create everything ...

This is a wonderful phenomenon. Their worship methods are somewhat different from the Jade Dragon and the Skeleton Dragon. The Jade Dragon has many worship things, but no Emerald Dragon thinks that they were created by a worship thing, and the Skeleton Dragon did not think Pompon created them, and Mukuron believed that pompon guided their direction, path, and life.

In the historical records of the white skeleton dragons, they believe that they were created by the creator with mud ...

… This statement looks strange, but it also means that Bai Miaolong does not remember what it was like at the beginning, but when they later learned how to record, they began to imagine how they were born and how they appeared. Think of them as being shaped by the creator.

...... Paired into a whole white skeleton dragon directly from the mud?This idea seems unlikely, but many of the ingredients in the soil can be converted into biological nutrients, so it can't be said that it is completely wrong ...

In fact, this question has also been thought about, how exactly do creatures come about?But at least not as Bai Miaolong said, if it is still possible to mold with mud, but later they say that the creator made other creatures from the rock ...

Generally speaking, these creatures do not know the existence of cells. They think that a creature is a whole, not made up of many small things. They think that a creature is like this when it was created.

If they tell a white skeleton dragon or an emerald dragon that they have something about cells, they may not believe this fact at all.

Their brains do not have information about the cells, they do n’t know that the cells have undergone many complicated evolutions to become like this.

When it comes to evolution, it is also a very complicated matter. In fact, there are many different situations in evolution. Now Lin also integrates the research on the evolution of biological history. The main evolution methods, Lin believes that there are about three.

Initially, the most primitive way of evolution was what Lin called "completely random".

That is, every time a creature reproduces, including when it splits, it may cause some changes to its own body. If a certain creature changes in a beneficial life, it will have a life advantage over its surroundings. It has More opportunities for reproduction, and then slowly it will eliminate other similar species. Over time, the creatures in this area have become creatures with this advantage.

This way of evolution is quite slow, because of the random relationship, they can't evolve quickly, they can only rely on the randomness that happens by chance during the next breeding, and they can't cope with the mutation environment and so on.

To put it more simply, this evolutionary method relies on coincidence and fate, and requires a large number of ethnic groups. If the ethnic groups are too few, they may be extinct when there is no good ability at random.

If organisms have evolved in this way, it is estimated that it will be difficult for large arthropods to wait for hundreds of millions of years, let alone divisional species or dinosaurs. It ’s not right, even if multicellular organisms will be born. .

So, another creature was born, they have a more powerful way of evolution, which Lin called "non-complete randomness".

It seems to be similar to the name above ... but this creature has evolved much faster.

This kind of 'non-completely random' creatures still evolve by coincidence. They need coincidence at first. They must meet something by accident, for example, a beetle has something that explodes in the body by chance, and then secretes it in the body. This liquid.

At first, it may have injured itself, but it did not die, and then it successfully repaired the wound in the body. At the same time, the beetle also found that this liquid can blow up the predator.

Then, it succeeded. It ate continuously, and then secreted similar fluids in the body to resist predators. At the same time, the cells also made its internal organs stronger, resisting this explosive without hurting the internal organs.

At this time, the cell of this beetle will completely record this new ability, and its descendants will also inherit this ability. Perhaps the initial ability is not very perfect. It may just be squeezing liquid by creeping, but its Each offspring improved it while continuously using this ability, and finally even became a super-barrel that can be synthesized directly in the body and can rotate 360 ​​degrees!

Simply put, whenever such a new type of evolutionary encounters a certain coincidence, it finds that the coincidence is beneficial to itself, and it begins to produce changes in accordance with this coincidence at a suitable time, without slowly accumulating random changes that happen by reproduction.

When organisms reproduce sexually, the offspring will also have more abilities.

In fact, this kind of "new evolutionary ability" of this creature also came out randomly at a certain moment. They quickly replaced the slow pure random creatures and became the main dominant species. Creatures, including various dinosaurs and skeletal dragons, are basically these creatures, and this species is not limited to animals, including plants and even fungi. The era of purely random creatures is over.

Only a few places can find some very original pure random fungi.

However, because this new evolutionary method relied on chance at first, it was called a 'non-completely random' creature.

As for the evolution of viruses ... this is not very good to confirm how they are. Next time, do a real experiment. Lin still retains a fairly old virus. I do n’t know if it will produce the current organism. What effect.

Non-random creatures, they do not get rid of randomness, they will still produce random changes during reproduction, and occasionally produce some changes that are not good for the body. If this changed creature successfully reproduces, its descendants will also inherit Similar bad changes, this is called 'genetic disease'.

Another is that Lin found that there are some emerald dragons. If it gave birth to offspring in a very sad and melancholic situation, then the character of its offspring might also become quite melancholic.

But no matter what, their speed of evolution has really improved.

However, although these creatures have evolved faster than purely random creatures, they are still slow, and they cannot complete the rapid change requirements of the division of labor for species.

So the third evolutionary method came into being. This is the evolutionary method that only the most powerful species, the division of labor species, will use.

That is' controllable evolution.'

This is also mainly the way that headworms produce new soldiers. Although the heads of arms are different, their larvae are exactly the same. Only when they reach the worms can they see the difference.

The larvae are highly variable. If a head worm wants to create a new breed, it needs to change a larva.

The queen of head worms secretes a special substance to control the growth of larvae. Usually a larva grows to a meter or so and slowly "feathers" into an infantry, but the head worm can prevent it from eclosing and then continuously feed the larva , When the larvae grow to an unusually large size.

Then let it feather, and then the head bug gets a giant infantry!

However, it is generally not done by zooming in, because the infantry is enlarged directly, and its carapace is not suitable for this body shape, which will cause it to collapse instantly.

Brain worms need to have a basic impact on the larvae, for example, to strengthen the carapace of the arms, strengthen the strength of the muscles and so on.

But this is not that simple, because the head worms rely on the "special substance" secreted by the queen to cause the larvae to "mutate". However, the head worms do not know themselves. They need to wait until it is an adult to observe.

Of course, there will be some failed products, but as soon as there is a useful place, the head worm will immediately record it with the record ball, and then make further changes on this basis.

Giant arms like the Earth Splitter were born after many brain bugs were modified and enhanced.

Although it may seem complicated, new recruits appear much faster than the above two evolutionary methods.

The Inca swarms directly omit this step, they directly "steal" the evolutionary achievements of other species, which leads to their unparalleled speed of evolution.

However, no matter which way of evolution is good, Lin does not belong to their system, and Lin ’s way of evolution is very different from them.

Everything is from small to complex, this will not change ...

But where did the original tinyness come from?
