Chapter 167 Genetics (seeking monthly ticket)
Ye Mo said: "There is nothing unfair. After the baby is born, various trainings will be arranged uniformly. When they are ten years old, all boys will be sent to various training grounds to fight to the death with dark beasts. And
There is no other right to choose, but girls are different. They can choose to go to major training grounds to fight with dark beasts like boys, or they can also choose to do some logistics work, so that they don’t have to fight with dark beasts all day long.
, they can live a relatively peaceful life. Of course, the result of this is that when they reach adulthood, they will be assigned to strong men to give birth to the next generation for these strong men."
"Girls are naturally weak. After all, there are only a few who choose to go fight with the dark beasts with boys. Even if they go, they will probably die very early. So the vast majority of girls will choose the second option. Men want to fight with the dark beasts.
Fighting with beasts, experiencing countless life and death tribulations, and killing countless dark beasts, you can finally enter the six realms, but women can live peacefully in the six realms all their lives. The contributions of both parties are completely different, so a man has multiple women.
, what’s unfair?”
Ye Mo shouted loudly, and in the ears of Fang Xinyi, Xiao Meng and other women, the women looked at each other, but they must accept the equality of men and women and monogamy to accept the fact that one man has countless women.
It's simply unimaginable.
In the crowd, a middle-aged man wearing glasses suddenly said: "This is very unreasonable. Compared with the weak, there are only a few who can become strong. Only these few strong have the right to reproduce. In addition,
All children born in the family will be taken away and arranged uniformly. In this way, will it not increase the harm of consanguineous marriage?"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao and others looked at the middle-aged man. Lin Xiao remembered that he was a doctor, his surname was Dai, and everyone called him Doctor Dai.
"Yes, what Dr. Dai said makes sense. If according to such regulations, the possibility of incest is too high and the next generation born from incest will be prone to idiots. You don't know this truth, right?" Fang Xinyi
She said hurriedly, because she thought what Ye Mo said was unbelievable. After hearing what Dr. Dai said made sense, she immediately started to catch the loopholes in Ye Mo's words.
Ye Mo said: "Do you think that the combination of close relatives will easily lead to idiots in the next generation? I know that according to historical records, in the world five hundred years ago, it was indeed forbidden to combine close relatives within three or five generations... But, you know
Why was it forbidden to marry close relatives at that time?"
Doctor Dai pushed up his glasses, coughed slightly, and then said: "When men and women who are closely related by blood get married, their offspring not only have a high mortality rate, but also more often suffer from dementia, deformities and various genetic diseases. This is because couples who marry close relatives,
If we acquire more identical genes from a common ancestor, it is easy for harmful genes that are detrimental to the survival of future generations to meet and become homozygous, thereby aggravating the harm of harmful genes to future generations, so it is easy to give birth to children with poor quality."
Everyone looked at Dr. Dai, and Sun Yaojie praised: "As expected of a doctor, he knows a lot more than us in this area." Everyone knew that close relatives could not get married, and they knew that more offspring of close relatives would suffer from dementia, but the specific reason was imitation.
It's vague and not very clear.
Doctor Dai coughed again when he saw that everyone was looking at him, and continued: "In fact, among the crowd, each of us will carry about 5 to 6 causative genes for recessive hereditary diseases. In a random marriage, due to a
The husband and wife are not related by blood and share few genes in common, so the recessive disease-causing genes they carry are also different. This makes it difficult to form homozygotes for the recessive disease-causing gene. When close relatives get married, due to
It is very likely that two people carry the same recessive disease-causing gene. The combination of the two parties can easily form homozygotes for the recessive disease-causing gene, which will increase the incidence of genetic diseases in their offspring.
Ye Mo glanced at Doctor Dai and then said: "You know better. What you said was not wrong when the Dark Beast did not appear. However, with the appearance of the Dark Beast, humans got phantom tools.
When the beast's power begins to evolve, this situation begins to change."
"Do you know what evolution is? One of the advantages of evolution is that it will constantly eliminate harmful genes that cause defects in the body. When it is strong enough, not only will these harmful genes no longer exist in the body, but also the birth of harmful genes will occur.
To produce special unique high-quality genes, as this person said, when both parties have harmful genes, of course it is better to mate randomly, because if close relatives combine, both parties may carry common harmful genes, and the offspring will be
It is easy to give birth to children with poor quality. However, what if both partners of the union not only have no harmful genes? What if both partners carry high-quality genes? Then the combination of inbreeding will not only not give birth to children with poor quality, but will make it easier to give birth to excellent genius offspring.
"
"However, it is difficult for people to accept the union of close relatives in terms of society and morality. That's why we were all taken away and arranged uniformly when we were born. No one knows who his parents are, and there is no relationship between them.
There will be no family relationship between them. In this way, even if a pair of brother and sister get married, there will be no moral problems. As for the harm of close relatives you mentioned, it is not applicable to today's society.
On the contrary, the closer the union is, the easier it is to produce excellent next generations. Of course, due to some moral reasons, we do not necessarily encourage the union of brothers and sisters, but let nature take its course.
"And after it has been passed down from so many generations, it is even less likely that there will be harmful genes that cause disease in our bodies."
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard Ye Mo's words. Even Doctor Dai kept pushing up his glasses, sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking his head, and then murmured: "It makes sense. The reason why our country prohibits incest is because of the union of incest.
The next generation will have many defects. However, if people in this world really do not have harmful genes, but have high-quality genes... then the combination of close relatives will not give birth to dementia, but will give birth to geniuses...
………”
Fang Zhirong suddenly said: "It seems to make sense, ***, I finally understand why the gods in Greek mythology are almost always brothers and sisters who get married or uncles and nieces get together, because of course these gods don't
Are there any defective and harmful genes? They are all excellent genes. If inbreeding is combined like this, the next generation will only get better and better. Haha, it seems that the Greeks are smart. They thought of it very early.
It’s a genetic problem.”
Sun Yaojie glanced at him, a little dumbfounded, and said: "According to your words, Nuwa and Fuxi in our Chinese myths and legends are both brother and sister, and husband and wife. Could it be that people at that time already knew about genetic differences?
Problem?"
Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly said: "It's really interesting to say that. It seems that in the myths of various countries, there are many husband and wife gods who are closely related. It seems that these gods have no taboos. Could it be said that there is really a gene among them?
What’s the reason? Is that why the myths and legends of various countries are so unified?”
Fang Zhirong laughed and said: "Lin Xiao, where are you thinking? These are just myths and legends, not true. Even if what Ye Mo said makes sense, it doesn't mean anything."
Lin Xiao smiled and shook his head slightly. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have captured something. Just like in the myths of various countries, there are examples of close relatives, and the proportion is very high. For example, in the myths and legends of various countries, there are examples.
Regarding the examples of the great flood, etc., it can be said to be accidental or coincidental, but as I traveled through time and space to today five hundred years later, listening to Ye Mo's words and comparing the current situation, I thought
The Tai Sui God thought of that mysterious finger, and an indescribable and mysterious feeling slowly arose in Lin Xiao's heart.
In a short period of time, through Ye Mo's mouth, everyone learned more and more shocking news, and they finally had a preliminary understanding of the world. At least they knew that this was the earth five hundred years later, and the country had perished.
Yes, it is the mysterious "Six Realms" that dominate the human world. Moreover, only the strong are qualified to give birth to the next generation. Before entering the "Six Realms", women became a rarity.
Sun Yaojie looked at the girls around him and suddenly realized that the situation was very dangerous.
According to the information provided by Ye Mo, there are only a few strong men who can enter the "Six Domains". Only those people can have women, so what about other men who can't get women? In their eyes, the value of women is unimaginable, and
Now there are dozens of women in this desert town. Once discovered by the men in this world, the consequences can be imagined, and there may even be a riot.
Ye Mo looked at Lin Xiao's thorny claws still pressing on his neck and said, "I... what I said is all the truth. Now... can you let me go?"
Lin Xiao shook his head and suddenly said: "What happened to the training ground you just mentioned?"
Ye Mo said: "When we reach the age of ten, we will be arranged to enter the training ground to practice. This desert town is one of the abandoned training grounds... By the way, I remember the front of the desert town
Those are the Poison Mist Swamp and the Stoneclaw Beast Lair. You should have come from there."
Lin Xiao felt a little chilled in his heart and said, "Yes, you also know these two places?"
Ye Mo smiled bitterly and said: "When I was ten years old, I was sent to the Stoneclaw Beast Nest. After that, through hard work, I finally entered the 'Frost Town', the 'Desert Town' where you are now, the Poison Mist Swamp and the Stoneclaw Beast."
The nests used to be training grounds, but now they have been abandoned. These training grounds were also established by the strong men in the six domains, so that we can become stronger step by step, and finally be able to stand alone.
