In other words, only "old" muscle cells make new muscle cells, only "old" nerve cells make new nerve cells, only "old" skin cells make new skin cells, and so on.

The only cells that appeared to be versatile were those that made skin and cartilage. In some circumstances, these two cell types could swap roles.

Endless Circadian Clock Gibberish
20th Century Science Should Upgrade To 22nd Century


A. "The ability of plants to tell the time, a mechanism common to all living beings, enables them to survive, grow and reproduce"
http://www.physorg.com/news165771470.html

According to the scientists, the circadian clock may well be the key for plants to survive a rise in temperatures. Plants without optimised circadian regulation will have "more difficulty to adjust to climate changes and survive the stress". The team now encourages further research from an ecological viewpoint, as "the value of this topic has been underestimated."


B. Search "Dov Henis on sleep and circadian rhythm"

How much more funding and gibbering will keep piling up on top of the already endless Circadian Clock gibberish?

This above work found that "the early bird catches the worm"...

For Nature, Earth's biosphere is one of the many ways of temporarily constraining an amount of ENERGY within a galaxy within a galactic cluster, thus avoiding, as long as possible, spending this particularly constrained amount as part of the fuel that maintains the clusters expansion.


C. Genes are THE Earth's organisms and ALL other organisms are their temporary take-offs

For Nature genes are genes are genes. Genes and their take-offs are the temporary energy packages and the more of them there are the more enhanced is the biosphere, Earth's life, Earth's temporary storage of constrained energy. This is the origin, the archetype, of selected modes of survival.


D. All Life Creates and Feeds Genes. Genes, Genomes, Cellular Organisms All Feed Genes.

It is not that gene eats gene. The early genes came into being by solar energy and lived a very long period solely on solar energy. Metabolic energy, the indirect exploitation of solar energy, was a much later phase in the evolution of Earth's biosphere.

However, essentially it is indeed so. All Life Creates and Feeds Genes. Genes, Genomes, Cellular Organisms, All Create And Feed Genes.

The universe is the archetype of quantum within classical physics, which is the fractal oneness of the universe.

Astronomically there are two physics. A classical physics behaviour of and between galactic clusters, and a quantum physics behaviour WITHIN the galactic clusters.

The onset of big-bang's inflation, the cataclysmic resolution of the Original Superposition, started gravity, with formation - BY DISPERSION - of galactic clusters that behave as classical Newtonian bodies and continuously reconvert their original pre-inflation masses back to energy, thus fueling the galactic clusters expansion, and with endless quantum-within-classical intertwined evolutions WITHIN the clusters in attempt to delay-resist this reconversion.

Again And Again: It's Culture That Drives Evolution
Not Occasional Genetic Accidents


Re "Spontaneous speciation?"
http://www.the-scientist.com/blog/display/55825/

Again and again:

A. Earth's primal organisms, Genes, and their take-offs, all Earth organisms, are temporary energy packages. The more of them there are the more enhanced is the biosphere, Earth's life, Earth's storage of temporarily constrained energy. This Is Nature's Drive And Purpose Of Life. This Is The Origin, The Drive, The Archetype, Of Selected Modes Of Survival.

B. From http://www.physorg.com/news151319378.html
I have been presenting evidence for years that adaptation, i.e. culture, is the driver of evolution of all life including human and, yes, of all other, inanimate materials, and that genetic evolution is generally biased, not random.

NO NO NO. The drive of evolution is NOT RANDOM change followed by survival selection. It is biased, as explained in my "Updated Life's Manifest" and elaborated in my posts about the nature and role of culture in evolution. In evolution of ALL materials, including life.

C. From http://www.the-scientist.com/community/pos...0/122.page#2753
"Origin Of Origins"
Earth Life is but one specimen of myriad of materials being formed and attempting to survive for temporarily constraining energy. This is the essence of the ongoing Big Bang.

On The Origin And Tasks Of Brain Cells
"what all these new cells are good for"


A. From "Newborn brain cells"
http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/200...i-nbc070609.php

"big leap forward in understanding what all these newborn neurons might actually do. Their study, published in the July 10, 2009, issue of the journal Science, illustrates how these young cells improve our ability to navigate our environment. We believe that new brain cells help us to distinguish between memories that are closely related in space,"

"question is no longer whether neurogenesis exists but rather what all these new cells are actually good for"


B. From "Life And Darwinism, Tomorrow's Comprehension"
http://www.the-scientist.com/community/posts/list/112.page

From my postings way back in 2005, which cites genetic evidence/demonstration of the workings of human cultural evolution:

- From Science, 2 Sept 2005: "Page's team compared human and chimp Ys to see whether either lineage has lost functional genes since they split.

The researchers found that the chimp had indeed suffered the slings and arrows of evolutionary fortune. Of the 16 functional genes in this part of the human Y, chimps had lost the function of five due to mutations. In contrast, humans had all 11 functional genes also seen on the chimp Y. "The human Y chromosome hasn't lost a gene in 6 million years," says Page. "It seems like the demise of the hypothesis of the demise of the Y," says geneticist Andrew Clark of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.

Chimp's genome has been continuing survival by physiologically adapting to changing environments.

- But look at this: From Science, Vol 309, 16 Sept 2005, Evolving Sequence and Expression:"An analysis of the evolution of both gene sequences and expression patterns in humans and chimpanzees...shows that...surprisingly, genes expressed in the brain have changed more on the human lineage than on the chimpanzee lineage, not only in terms of gene expression but also in terms of amino acid sequences".

Surprisingly...???

Human's genome continued survival mainly by modifying-controling its environment.


C. From "More On The Lifehood Of Genes"
http://www.the-scientist.com/community/pos...st/160/122.page

"Genes to Genomes to Monocellular Organisms to Multicellular Organisms"
http://www.articlesbase.com/science-articl...-us-817144.html

Now we can appreciate the fractal nature of life's evolution. It is ever-continuous ever-enhanced ever-complexed cooperation. Now we can understand why, and grosso modo how, the organs and processes and signals found in multicelled organisms have their historical origins in the life-cultures of monocells communities. And this includes modifying shape of monocells community in response to changed circumstances, functions of serotonin and melatonin and, yes, the evolution of neural cells and the neural systems with their intricate outer-membrane shapes and functions and their high energy consumption requirements.

And this includes also production of fresh genostem cells in monocells communities, in response to arising community needs. And this includes also a variety of means and mechanisms within cells community involved from sensing a need of fresh genostemcells through producing them and directing them to target locations where they are needed and committing them to the specific tasks in response to the new need.

A. On Human male sex chromosome, aaagain?

From "Male Sex Chromosome Losing Genes By Rapid Evolution, Study Reveals"
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/...90716201127.htm

"...we also know that most of the genes were not important for survival because they were lost, which led to the very different numbers of genes we observe between the once-identical X and Y. Although there is evidence that the Y chromosome is still degrading, some of the surviving genes on the Y chromosome may be essential, which can be inferred because these genes have been maintained for so long."

"...found evidence that some others are on track to disappear, as well."


B. From "Spontaneous speciation?"

And from "Conservation of Y-linked genes during human evolution revealed by comparative sequencing in chimpanzee"http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v437/n7055/full/nature04101.html

Chimp's genome has been continuing survival by physiologically adapting to changing environments, whereas Human's genome continued survival mainly by modifying-controling its environment.


C. AcademEnglish verbiage should be at least scientifically careful

The rate of "losing genes" by an organism is not a constant value of a natural law. It is induced and set mostly by the rate and nature of the change of culture of the organism, which is induced, in turn , by various circumstential factors...

IMO we can feel assured that the human Y is not on an accelerating course to oblivion...

More On Web-Only Science Literature


A. Antiscientism Evangelism

During the last half of its 160 years long history the AAAS, the organization and Science-Establishment-Guild-TradeUnion of our "scientists" (whatever "scientists" means), has been The Antiscientism Evangelist on Earth.

It has been promoting ITS Science as The True Science, as a "universal religion" alongside and in addition to all "other spiritual" personal religions.

The AAAS explicitly considers that thus having two religions is in accordance with one of the definitions of "rationalism", i.e.: "reliance on reason as the basis for establishment of religious truth" ( whatever "religious truth" was when this definition was drawn up prior to comprehending that religion is a virtual reality affair), rationalism being most synonymous with science...

But by adopting THIS meaning of rationalism AAAS obviously and harshly disregards other definitions of rationalim:

- "a theory that reason is in itself a source of knowledge superior to and independent of sense perceptions"

- "a view that reason and experience rather than the nonrational are the fundamental criteria in assessing and solution of problems"
