Biology - October 2006

I think a simple anser to this questio is that it is easier to do and works most of the time so from an evolutionary point of view it was cost effective However, I don't thin this is true, given that most things are not black and white, why would we think this way.

Also, if you do want to argue that things typically are black and white, or are close enough so as not to matter, you can freely argue that point as well.

You know in the scientific method, you make a hypothesis and then do experiments? well the hypothesis is proved wrong if only ONE thing proves it wrong. You can't prove evolution wrong with experimenation. how is evolution scientific? like, I can't run experiments in a lab or a test tube to show that macroevolution is possible. I understand that microevolution exists, it has been proven. However, a scientist cannot go and make an experiment to test macroevolution. you can't observe animals evolving, can you? I've just been pondering what science really is and what some people make it out to be.

For instance, the speed at which objects accelerate in free fall on the earth is 9.8 m/s/s. If someone performed an experiment and discovered that it was really 15 m/s/s, that "law" would be proven wrong. this can't be done to evolution, making it unscientific. isn't this correct, if I follow the scientific method?

How is the theory of evolution scientific if it can't be proven wrong?

Is it a proten change or electrical, how is the memory stored? Will it be posable to scan the brain of an educated person and copy the education to a new person? Is it worth putting a dead persons brain in liquid nitrogen in the hope the data could be recovered in the future.

If you look at the animal kingdom this is the ONLY criteria.
Just interested to know if this kind of thing affects whether to have a child or not in the human world any more.

...and that goes for both liquid and solids. Does this mean that we are eating the wrong things or that our bodies are very inefficient "machines"?
