Western Man has stopped Evolving !!!

Labels: , , , , , ,

"For Western world man, and of-course woman, the process of evolution has stopped as having all the comforts of life, the western man does not needs to struggle and hence the process of natural selection, which is the basis of evolution, has stopped ", says Steve Jones, head of the department of genetics, evolution and environment at the University College London,a British Genetic expert.

Thus, going by this argument, if we are going to see some development of humans 500,000 yrs from now, the onus of those evolutions is totally on the men of east. "We now know so much about the process of evolution that we can make some predictions about what might happen in future," Jones said in a lecture here on Monday.

Before modernity, life was so tough that many children died at very young age due to various diseases and only the ones with better genes did survive, survival of fittest as they say. This process of natural selection led to survival of those with genetic mutations and hence contributing to the process of evolution.Referring to mutation, Jones expounds the view that it too is slowing down. It is because there are fewer older fathers in the West. Older men's sperm deteriorates and contains more genetic mistakes which in turn can lead to mutations in their children.Cell divisions in males increase with age. "Every time there is a cell division, there is a chance of a mistake, a mutation, an error," he is quoted as saying. A third factor - randomness - is also an important ingredient in evolution. Small populations that are isolated can change at random as genes are accidentally lost, he said. But as the world's population becomes increasingly connected, the opportunity for random change is dwindling.

Jones is not the only scientist to believe mankind will struggle to evolve from its present state. In his book "Future Evolution", Peter Ward, a paleontologist at the University of Washington, claims that only by interbreeding and allowing bioengineering can a new species emerge.

So, if the human race survives for another 500,000 yrs, they may be just like us but of-course far ahead of us in terms of technology.



World's Biggest Scientific Experminet

Labels: , , , , , , , , , ,

This Wednesday, when you might sitting quietly on your sofa watching something just to pass your time, the few will be conducting the World's Biggest Experiment. The aim of the experiment being to find out the God inside us, i.e. to find the "GOD PARTICLE".

The cost of the experiment is estimated to be a huge $7.7 billion in quest to see what happened after a fraction of second of the mighty BIG-BANG, the birth of universe and provide some of the vital clues of the basic building blocks of life.The experiment will be conducted by a well know Physicist Lyn Evans, dubbed Evans the Atom, will this week switch on a giant particle accelerator designed to unlock the secrets of the Big Bang.On wednesday, he will fire up the Large Hadron Collider, a 17-mile-long doughnut-shaped tunnel that will smash sub-atomic particles together at nearly the speed of light.

It will track the particles that are sprayed out after collision in search of theoretical entity that is supposed to lend or provide weight to all the elementary particles and so important is the discovery of this particle that it has been colled the GOD PARTICLE. And if the scientists are able to find it, they may solve various mysteries of universe like the so called Dark Matter and various other mysteries that have occupied their mind for long. However, if the critics are to believed, this endeavor to find the God Particle and witness what happened a fraction of second after the Big Bang may bring the world to it's end by creating a shower of unstable blackholes that would slowly eat up the earth. Also feard is a massive change in climate leading to what is reffered as Biblical armagedon.
