New Theories on Evolution
According to a brand new article on Live Science, "Some scientists are proposing additions to the list of evolutionary forces."
And frankly, it just makes sense. We are not at the apex of all knowlege by any stretch of the imagination.
One of the theories is that some organisms have flexible genes, which allow them to "change their physical or other features during development to accommodate environmental changes, a phenomenon called phenotypic plasticity."
Is this like those frogs who are all female but have one male and when he dies the biggest female becomes the new male? If not it should be.
PS. This is a picture of frogs mating. I think the one on top turned into a male. Yup. I checked.
