Answer 1

i dont get it :S

Answer 2

Well, a few things, other than the fact that the person who drew it demonstrates a shocking ignorance of how meiosis and sexual reproduction work. I _hope_ that person realizes that sex cells do come from somewhere and don't just randomly pop into existence.

First, cells do not have gender; they have DNA. The fact that a cell came from a man doesn't make it a "male cell," even though the DNA within it could be used to build a male organism.

Next, there's a very good reason why sexual reproduction exists: diversity! Mixing DNA from two parents allows for a diverse population that is able to rapidly adjust to environmental changes and is resistant to recessive genetic disorders.

It's not the only way things are done, either. Many organisms reproduce in different ways. Some critters have kids that are genetic clones of themselves - one parent, not two!

Answer 3

Umm, I'm guessing this the guy had a problem with why there are two sexes rather than just one sex that can breed with everyone. Indeed, having male and females cuts the gene pool a mate can select from in half. The only problem with the theory is it lacks research, lacks good grammar, and is extremely difficult to understand what the theory actually is. In reality, it isn't a theory- it's just a hypothesis.

Answer 4

That **** makes NO sense.

post it in the Biology forum.
They will laugh.

"Male and Female" gamete cells don't just pop out of nowhere.
They are specifically reproductive cells made specificallly to combine together to form a zygote.

The zygote then divides many gajillions of times, with the Same DNA sequence governing the structure-development, the SAME DNA in all the cells thereafter. Except the sex cells...

There are these things called microscopes that show us things.

Answer 5

I think the enjoyable reproduction process is worth enough to validate the evolution theory and discredit this obvious wrong theory.

Answer 6

It strikes me as something coming from the common misconception that believing in evolution means not believing in God. So this person is trying to prove God's existence and believes in the process disproving evolution.

Answer 8

could be that someone is really jaded about the opposite sex (someone really screwed them over, evoking the notion that the gender is not necessary)
could be that whoever put the scheme together is gay and trying to justify same-sex partnerships
could be that whoever put that together is some amateur philosopher
could be that they are just an idiot

Answer 9

who made that assumption?

is he trying to say that we could have one gender only in the history of evolution? or why it is still needed to have two opposite cells and produce only one kind of cell?

well i think it wouldn't be possible if only one kind of cell will do the process. It is a nature's process.

remember we were all made from the union of two opposite cells of our parents....

Answer 10

evolutionarily, sex evolved as a way to spread diversity. that way new gametes could form with totally new gentic combinations. these new life forms had more ways of combining genes to pass them on to their young and more ways for them to adapt faster. but im a christian, so i dont really care.

Answer 11

Bits and pieces are all over the place.
