If you go to a planet on the outer edge of the galaxy that's tidally locked to it's star, what would you see in the sky? A black void for half the year on the night side of the planet?

Why the fuck do we only grow one adult set of teeth? What evolutionary profit is there in developing oral and dental diseases?

Yet our bodies have no problems growing random fucking kidney/gall/tonsil stones for no reason, or growing nails endlessly (I'm tired of clipping that shit)

Can a rope placed horizontally like in the pic ever be truly straight? Gravity acts on it pulling it towards the earth therefore there has to be a force which counteracts the force of gravity. I don't see which force does that job other than the tension in the rope, but that tension has to have a nonzero vertical component, and that's only possible if the rope is slightly bent downwards.

Am I being retarded here?

A decade ago in the Austrian alps the remnants of a tree was discovered far above the current tree line and the dead wood was eventually dated to being several thousand years old. So if global warming is real, how come the tree line in the Austrian alps was so much higher a thousand years ago than it is currently? The climate must have been much, much warmer back when the tree grew than it is currently for the tree to have been growing at as high an altitude as it was discovered.
This proves that the climate is currently cooling off rather than getting warmer

I hate people, not because i'm edgy, but because they are stoopid, all they care about is money and socialization, fuck npc's we should start a cult or something, so we could research the reality and live without pain for as long as we can.

🧵 Does the Y chromosome evolve faster?

Anonymous No. 16364841

I'm gonna get crucified for this one, but I'm actually hoping someone with a biology background can explain why I'm wrong.

We can trace mitochondrial DNA which goes back entirely through maternal lineage. We can trace Y chromosomes back through paternal lineage. Studies have done just that and found that historically the ratio of female to male reproduction was 2 to 1. 10,000 years ago it was like 17 to 1.

There's also been research showing the Y chromosome has shrunk dramatically in the last million or so years.

Now in terms of mutation rate the Y chromosome isn't going to mutate any faster. But deleterious traits should be removed significantly faster from the Y chromosome due to much stronger selective pressure, creating a bottleneck while the X chromosome is under much less pressure.

Does this mean what I think it means? I'm hesitant to extrapolate but given the significantly elevated rate of anxiety and depression in women, I can't help but wonder.

Can someone please explain why I'm wrong?

You took grug‘s accomplishments and you corrupted it. This is not what grug had in mind. Grug hates Platonism and Scholasticism. Grug always rooted thinking in reality.
