As early as 1953, Watson and Crick announced to the world their major discovery, which was the double helix structure DNA. I believe many people have seen this twist-like twist. This kind of thing, so far, scientists believe that almost all living things living on the earth are composed of different DNAs, which store a large number of genetic secrets, and various living organisms are constantly compiled and copied through it. Inheritance ultimately develops step by step from an embryo to the end of life.
It can be said that the discovery of DNA has opened the door to the mysteries of life for mankind, and people are constantly exploring this.
The mystery of DNA lies in its genetic code . Only by understanding the coding can we understand the biological protein library. As early as October 1990, genome sequencing has been put on the agenda. Unfortunately, in 13 years, the human body has The gene sequence was only 92% complete, and the remaining 8% once put scientists in trouble.
Talking about the reasons, one is that it was trapped by the technology of the year, and the other is that the remaining 8% contains the longevity gene that people have wanted to know about since ancient times. Scientists believe that for the key information, etc. It's okay to wait, but maybe even the scientists themselves didn't expect that it would take nearly 20 years to wait, and many of them have already brought several waves of students!
Time came to January 2022, and the U.S. National Human Genome announced a major news to the world: their sequencing of the human genome was finally completed. I have to say that this is exciting news. Doesn’t it feel like the secret of life has finally been revealed?
However, science means that some people agree and some people doubt it. After the news was announced, many people immediately became suspicious, including Richard Gordon, a geneticist in Florida .
Gordon thinks so. He said: Pull a DNA molecule into a straight line about 1.8 meters, and a hydrogen molecule is only 0.12 nanometers. This means that there is a gap of 10 billion to one between them. From this point of view, DNA is actually a huge material carrier in the microscopic world.
Friends who have studied biology know that there is a chemical component on DNA called base , and the bases appear in pairs, so what does the base pair determine? You guessed it right, it is genetics, such as single eyelids, double eyelids, hair color, and even your height, weight, family genetic history, etc., are all determined by it. Calculated according to the 46 DNA molecules of human beings, That’s 3.1 billion pairs of bases. You can imagine what a huge information database this is?
In our knowledge system, the vast majority of people (mainstream scholars) believe that DNA evolved. From the initial amino acid to , people passed five levels and defeated six generals, relying on the luck of the protagonist who cheated the whole process step by step. We have reached this day, but it is precisely this point that has hit the target of Gordon's suspicion.
The time came to 2013, when Gordon, who was at the National Institute of Aging in Bardim, and Sharov were making an interesting calculation. They started from the basic building blocks of DNA molecules ( nucleotide ) began to conduct evolutionary deductions, and the result was that it would take 9.7 billion years for Xianglin to evolve into the 46 DNA molecules it has today. Now the problem becomes serious. You know, our earth has only just had a lifespan of about 4.5 billion years. , 9.7 billion years, which is even far beyond the age of the solar system. Is the BUG too big?
Along with Gordon's theory, a theory called pangenesis was born. Pangenesis believes that DNA actually existed before the formation of the solar system, and that microorganisms on the earth all originated from the universe. Take bacteria, for example, which are most likely life forms brought about by the impact of blind comets when the earth was formed. These bacteria slowly adapted to the earth's environment, and they began to evolve, step by step, to where they are today.
Although pangenesis was sound, it was quickly overturned.
In our concept, bacteria are very stubborn, but in fact, if bacteria want to survive well, they not only need an ideal host, but also the appropriate temperature and humidity. This is not over yet. According to modern scientific verification, As long as DNA is exposed to the natural environment, it will die. Just imagine the environment and climate at the beginning of the formation of the earth. The possibility is really not high. Even if it survives, if you want to evolve into a living body, you really need the aura of the protagonist. Just give it a blessing!
Many friends may not know much about cells. The outermost part of the cell is the cell membrane. There is a flagellum on the cell membrane (the cell relies on it to move). The macromolecules in the cell include DNA, protein , RNA (ribonucleic acid), etc. Wait, someone once compared a cell to a city, D NA is the planning map of this city. In addition, please imagine that if you want to build such a city, the amount of various materials required must be huge. Therefore, even Kree himself, after discovering DNA, At first, he was also skeptical about evolution theory . He even wrote in his paper 20 years after the discovery of DNA that DNA could not have been formed in 4.5 billion years.
Having said that, the highlight of this article is coming - the great structural organization design hypothesis. What is interesting about this hypothesis is that it believes that human beings are created by the Creator.
The story begins in 1985, when she was a college student studying at the Carl Jung Institute in Zurich, Switzerland. On this day, she happened to read a book about the Chinese I Ching in the library. The book mentioned, The I Ching actually has an unusual relationship with genetic DNA. This student became Professor Walter later.
Almost every Chinese person knows that the I Ching is an ancient and mysterious philosophical book in the East. It can not only seek divination and ask questions, but also turn bad luck into good luck. It comes from the Bagua and is said to have been created by Taihao Fuxi. There are three versions (i.e. Lianshan Yi , Guizang Yi, Zhou Yi ). Currently, only the Zhouyi is spread in the world. ", according to records, "The Book of Changes" was deduced by King Wen of Zhou when he was imprisoned by King Zhou of Shang Dynasty. King Wen of Zhou added Fuxi Bagua in pairs to get 64 hexagrams. Single hexagrams are composed of long and short straight lines. Different The hexagram images have different hexagram words. Each straight line or broken line is called a Yao. Different Yao also has different Yao words. Corresponding to the hexagram words and Yao words, different deductions can be drawn, from which the world can be deduced. What happened before and after, but unfortunately, few people understand it now.
What is interesting is that Walter is a person with a clear mind. She is determined to complete the connection between Life Code and the I Ching. After completing her Ph.D., she successfully became a professor at the Institute of Neuroscience and Consciousness in Austin, Texas. After becoming a scientist, she came to China to study. What she didn't expect was that she was not the only one who had a strong interest in this.
It turns out that as early as 1973, a German scientist named Schuberg wrote a book "The I Ching and the Genetic Code". The book tried to explain the relationship between the I Ching and heredity. Although it was not very successful, it was for Walter's benefit. Bringing some inspiration, Walter started from metaphysics. She believed that Tao was the original law at the beginning of the universe, from which DNA and heredity were born, and the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching also reached the same goal.
So how exactly does Walter connect the two?
As we all know, DNA is composed of four characters T-C-A-G. These four characters may appear anywhere, and their total number is 64 (as shown in the figure below). Does this match the 64 hexagrams of Zhouyi? What's up?
But, although this is not the only one that can match 64, Dr. Walter firmly believes that this is a chaotic mode. What is a chaotic mode? In short, they are two expressions of the same creative mode. In fact, some people wanted to match DNA with the I Ching a long time ago, but what they deduced was somewhat unjustifiable. It was not until the 1990s that Dr. Walter established a code conversion system.
For example, UGA (termination codon), in Walter's system, corresponds to the 12th hexagram (No hexagram) of the Zhouyi, which probably looks like the following. Friends who know something about the Zhouyi may know that has the No hexagram The meaning of blockage (the upper stems and lower kun, Yang goes up and down the yin, each goes its own way, so it is blocked), this blockage is exactly consistent with UGA. Of course, there are indeed some places that are more complicated and difficult to correspond to. For example, serine may require six codons , and the corresponding hexagrams will also have six hexagrams. It is actually very difficult to match them. So far, although it cannot be said that all the information can be consistent, it at least gives people a new research direction.
Everything is still being explored. It has to be said that human genome sequencing is of vital significance to the development of human beings. It has established a huge gene library for us , and it also provides a basis for the treatment and treatment of various diseases. The research provided a solid foundation. Collins, the person in charge of the genome at that time (former director of the US Institutes of Health), sighed when he completed the project: With humility and awe, we have peeked into the mystery of life. , this is something that only the Creator can know.
