Evolutionists Explain this?!?

Question

In order for an animal to evolve new information must be added to each and every cell. Where did this new information come from? And by the way mutation is a loss of information not an increase in information.

adaptation does not mean that new information has been added to the cells just that the creature has adjusted to fit the circumstances.

when a mutation occurs certain characteristics are lost that is what a loss of information means and yes a mutation is a change isn't that obvious

Since when do you Brenda's World know everything.

Answer 1

they cant explain that. check mate. bravo.

Answer 2

Mutation is not a loss of information OR an increase - it is a CHANGE. DNA strand A becomes DNA strand B (or doesn't completely seperate and becomes DNA strand AB) in the reproductive cell, which combines with another reproductive cell. The single combined cell replicates itself and develops into an animal with a mutation.

If the mutation is successful, it may breed true, and the animals with this mutation are more likely to survive than those without it and therefore will pass it down until it becomes part of the species' genome. An example of this would be a thoroughbred horse - and yes, controlled breeding is a form of induced mutation. I guarantee that you will not find a wolf who looks like a pug, yet dogs were bred from wolves, and mutated through controlled breeding into all the different kinds of dogs you find today.

If the mutation is neutral, it will be passed on but will not become part of the basic genome because those who don't have it will not be weeded out of the gene pool as they would be if the mutation was successful. An example of this would be a white wolf - it neither helps nor (usually) hinders them when it comes to survival, therefore the mutation persists but does not become dominant in the population as a whole.

If the mutation is unsuccessful or lethal, those who have it will either not survive or will be at a disadvantage against those who don't have that mutation and thereby will be removed from the gene pool. Most mutations are unsuccessful. A six-legged frog is more likely to become bird food than to live long enough to pass on its genes.

Don't reject an idea just because it doesn't fit with your prejudices. Do the research first.

Answer 3

Okay........ you're premise has two faults:
You said "In order for an animal to evolve new information must be added to each and every cell." That is incorrect. The information in the cell must change in order for evolution to occur but a DNA strand cannot be "added" to. Its sequence can be changed. But its a long strand and different combinations are infinite. Its sequence can be altered by Earths natural radiations and several RNA chemical processes can achieve this as well.

You also said:"And by the way mutation is a loss of information not an increase in information" Thats incorrect.
Dramatically.

Which means, youre attempting an argument on false bases using reasoning in fields you're clearly unfamiliar with.

Its like trying to drive a spaceship when your only experienced in tricycles.

Idiot.

Answer 4

The new information comes from stimulation processed through the energy of the world.

Our heads are aproximately 4cm bigger in circumference than they were in the 1400 time period.

Why? More information. It's a stimulation of each individual cell in a manner different from the previous. I thought I was smart growing up, however, thanks to the advance of the internet we have children that are 8 years old exploring sociological aspects of life that previously were kept to the older group of humanity. Example: any 8 year old can read your answers and receive a vast amount of information on this topic, were previously he may have had to wait until college to get such a large group of information.

Meaning, his brain will receive more information at an earlier age, increasing his capability of thought - and the body will have to physically adjust. This child may have a slightly bigger cranium to accomodate, and his intelligence capability may be passed on to his child: whom will be taught by his father, and the process will continue.

Etc.

Don't forget that evolution takes so long that specifics of moments are extremely diminutive and detailed. That's why SCIENTISTS whom have attended systems of educations almost all of their life: and live in a world of learning new objects, agree with evolution. They understand the very core of cellular pathology, for example, while you think mutation is what you were taught in science class in 8th grade.

Mutation is, by the way, unrelated to evolution. Mutation CAN occur, to expedite evoltuion - but it's not common, or at least, it's like winning the lottery without knowledge if the amoutn will be debt or winnings: and thus, a mutation is just that: you mutate. It is not part of the process of evolution, but can work with or against it.

Answer 5

Mutation isn't a loss of information, it's a change of information. About 100 years ago, the average height of a man was about 5' 6".. It's now about 5' 9". Try reading a book on evolution. Ok ?

Answer 6

Well, mutation is a CHANGE in information contained in DNA. not an addition or subtraction, so you have a fallacy there. And since every living thing starts as a single cell, the change only needs to happen during reproduction for the change to be passed to every cell.

I am Christian, by the way, and my outlook is that God acts as the impetus behind these changes, so that while evolution does occur, it is a supremely complex and intricate act which requires the presence of God's divine will.

The Catholic Pope's have said as much as this on numerous occassions.

Answer 7

A mutation occurs when there is a mistake in the replication of DNA early in the organism's life, before it has developed. Some mutations are bad, and some are good. If the mutation helps the organism survive and pass on its genes, then it will prevail. If not, natural selection will eliminate it.

Answer 8

who says it has to be new?

it can be a good combination of certain things

oh and ps a mutation is change not a loss of information

(the change may mean the same or more or less - for instance when some people have half a chromosome missing or some people have a whole extra chromosom, brimming full with additional information!)

Answer 9

"To summarize then, the creationist claim that information cannot be increased by random changes can be falsified using one of three separate independent methods.

The creationist claim that eliminating natural selection as the agent responsible for complex genomic information provides specific support for Intelligent Design reduces to two logical fallacies;

1. An argument from ignorance, and
2. A false dichotomy.

The creationist use of information theory to falsify natural processes as the source of information often relies on transparent mathematical trickery.

By using examples such as back mutations, we can falsify the creationist claim that information cannot be increased via mutational events irrespective of the definition used for information content, provided that definition is mathematically consistent."

Answer 10

Mutation is a change in information, neither a loss nor a gain.

Answer 11

Another stupid sh*t christian, who thinks he knows better then scientists.

There are five forms of mutation, genius:

Point, deletion, insertion, transposition, and duplication.

Only one of the five actually result in loss of information (deletion). Point, insertion, and transposition change the genetic information without loss. Duplication (of single nucleotides or entire chromosomes) result in an increase in information.

Why don't you take some time to actually research the science that you claim to understand.
