According to a report by the Japan Broadcasting Association on July 1, the Japan Marine Research and Development Agency announced that one of their research teams photographed a " deep-sea fish ". It is very huge and has a fat body, just like the disgusting one depicted in Japanese anime. Like living things.
Then Japan looked through the historical records of "Unknown Marine Species". A fish exactly like this one was also found in Suruga Bay outside Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan last year, and we knew its name - —Yokozuna sardines.
So, is this still considered a new species?
counts, absolutely counts!
Because the fish discovered this year is twice as big as the individual of the same species found last year! The length is a full 2.53 meters. If the growth period of this new species continues, no one knows how big they can grow! And less than 10 have been found so far.
Are seabed species forced to swim high? Or is it the fish species mutation caused by Japanese nuclear radiation ?
This is a sea scale insect discovered last year in the Kumano Sea off the southeastern coast of Japan. Their body size is only a quarter of that of their mate. This may not sound like much to the layman, but in the eyes of scientists who study marine life Here, this kind of sea insect that has not changed for centuries suddenly evolved into a smaller version. This is a bit tricky, but the specific reason is still unknown to humans.
in Ecology and Behavior Based on the characteristics of , the 'dwarfing' of sea scale insects may be related to their lifestyle of living together with females in shells, but scientists need further verification, and all reasoning is still conventional logical reasoning with unknown answers. , but this kind of reasoning obviously cannot directly answer the question of why marine life suddenly shrank four times. Such a huge change should last for decades or hundreds of years to comply with the laws of natural biological evolution.
gene mutation
The impact of nuclear radiation on living things is huge. It will not only affect the growth and development of living things, but even cause genetic variation in species. Therefore, the impact of nuclear radiation on living things is devastating.
I believe everyone still has an impression of the nuclear leakage that occurred in Japan 8 years ago. At that time, Japan's nuclear power plant leaked due to an earthquake, which also caused many surrounding organisms to mutate. Although the nuclear leakage has been a long time ago, But the impact of the nuclear leak is not over.
This example of Pipi shrimp transforming into a fighting shrimp is no longer new.
According to international organizations' monitoring of the waters near Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant, the amount of radioactive material in the waters surrounding the nuclear power plant is significantly higher than in other waters. Plants and animals will mutate under the influence of nuclear radiation.
Including fruits and vegetables that people usually eat, they all started to become deformed and weird! Cabbage grows bigger, tomatoes grow teeth, and sunflowers shrink.
There are also two-faced cats and extremely large mice. Since the real pictures are a bit scary, I won’t show them one by one.
Most of the biological variations of and are harmful and unsuitable for survival. For example, metamorphosed marine organisms may have poor adaptability and their survival is a problem, so don't expect to become a new species. What is the
gene mutation?
Genome DNA molecule sudden, heritable mutation phenomenon (gene mutation). From a molecular level, gene mutation refers to a change in the composition or arrangement of the base pair in the gene structure. Although the gene is very stable and can accurately copy itself when cells divide into , this stability is relative.
Under certain conditions, genes can suddenly change from their original form of existence to another new form of existence. That is, a new gene suddenly appears at a site, replacing the original gene. This gene is called a mutant gene. .As a result, new traits that the ancestors never had suddenly appeared in their offspring's performance.
In fact, this is not the first time that nuclear radiation has been mentioned in terms of animal gene mutations. There were also rumors of "Chernobyl Giant Rat" back then.
In the spring of 1993, a joint U.S.-Russian scientific expedition team entered the ruins of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and was attacked by giant rats that had been mutated by radiation, killing many people. There are about 50 giant rats in this group, each one is about 40 centimeters long and weighs more than 20 kilograms. They will take the initiative to attack people when they see them, and their bite force is amazing. With one mouthful, they can even bite the tires. The most terrifying thing is that they can fight together. Finally, the authorities dispatched a company of troops armed with light and heavy weapons to completely eliminate the group of giant rats.
This is a report published in "Today's Keyuan" in 1998. Because this publication was managed by China Association for Science and Technology and had a certain degree of authority, this article was later widely reprinted, and people also called this giant rat the "Chernobyl Giant Rat."
Whether it is nuclear radiation or the concentrated mutation of the earth's creatures caused by natural destruction, in fact, humans are also under radiation all the time. While animals and plants are constantly mutating, the reason why scientists are very interested in this topic is Nervous, the most worrying issue is that the problem of "biological variation" will eventually fall on humans.
The logic of this "worry" can be easily explained. None of the mutant species discovered so far show "awakening of wisdom", and most of them are "deformed" and "horribly mutilated".
If dogs evolved human intelligence, it would not be something that humans should worry about.
What worries humans the most is that humans originate from DNA and will also be limited by DNA. If cases of two-headed people will occur more frequently, it will not just be as simple as protecting the environment.
On the night of March 16, 1990, Patty, a female teacher in the small town of Pierre in western Minnesota, USA, gave birth to a baby girl in the hospital. But what she didn’t expect was that she was a “bi-headed” twin—there were two of them. A head, two brains, and two spines fused at the pelvis, but only one body. Therefore, the two sisters share two arms, two legs, a liver, a large intestine, a small intestine, a bladder, a uterus and a vagina. However, there are two hearts, four-lobed lungs, three kidneys and two stomachs in this body.
Human DNA has inheritance properties. If the disaster of "biological mutation" on the earth falls on humans, although we will not laugh at people born with disabilities, but if this evolves into the norm for humans, then the problem will no longer be solved. Recovered.
Human technology is far from being able to touch DNA. NDA is the code of life.
If this kind of code is damaged before it is revealed by humans, humans will not be able to repair it. Therefore, scientists look at "mutation" from two perspectives. To put it lightly, it is a deformity. From a civilization perspective Say that is destruction.
Therefore, whether it is nuclear radiation or the destruction of the natural balance, humans need scientists in this field to always remind humans of their safety.
