Can someone please tell me what came first the chicken or the egg.?

Answer 1

a chicken and an egg were lying in bed together, the chicken was smoking a ciggerette.

the chicken leaned over and said, "guess that answers that question".

lmao

dont really care which came first, just as long as they're cooked properly

Answer 2

Try this virtual experiment:

First, identify your chicken. There are a lot of varieties out there and not all of them are genetically the same. It doesn't matter which one you choose because the experiment works for all of them.

Secondly, identify the genome of your chicken so that you have a template against which you can match all preceding chickens.

Thirdly, compare the genomes of both parents for every preceding generation against that of your chosen chicken. Bear in mind that for every generation, the number of chickens to be compared is multiplied by a factor of two - this will result in a lot of chickens running around in your virtual laboratory.

Keep working back until you find a situation where both parents are not genetically identical to the chicken you started with. These are therefore not chickens as you have defined a chicken to be and if you come forward one generation, you have the first chicken. This came from an egg.

Alternatively, you could accept Genesis 1:22 and say that the bloody chicken came first.

Answer 3

Many species lay eggs, including dinosaurs that evolved into birds (and so, chickens). So, there were eggs long before there were chickens.

Even if you were to narrow the question, which can first, the 'chicken egg' or the chicken, the answer is still, the egg. The final version of the CHICKEN was a genetic mutation from a chicken ancestor. When that chicken ancestor laid the egg containing the first chicken, it was a chicken egg because it contained a chicken.

Answer 4

If you base the fact that a chicken is 100 % chicken then the egg came first.
As animals are constantly evolving, a true chicken is the most recent chicken hatched, which came from an egg.
The bird which laid the egg although a chicken itself was one step back on the evolutionary chain and hence 99.999999999999999999999999 % modern chicken.
The chick in the egg evolved a small fraction of a percent before it hatched and then hatched into the most recent evolutionary strain of chicken.
Hence the egg came first.

Answer 5

the egg came first. whatever chickens evolved from would have been born in an egg and then progressively, through thousands of generations, developed into a chicken.

christians - stop leaving stupid religious answers! do you actually believe god created everything even though you have no evidence and there is a god and there so much evidence proving theories of evolution and the creation of everything from the big bang??

Answer 6

OK evolution works by mutation of the genes in the fertilisation, embryonic stages, so the egg came first as it was a mutation from the predecessor of the chicken!
Also everyone else to chicken!

Answer 7

i say whoever believes the Bible will say the chicken came first!!!!!

why? because 1. God created the earth, animals, and humans. 2. there was no propogation until Adam and Eve sinned. 3. consequently, the chicken came first.

Answer 8

The egg. It was laid by a chicken in 1022BC.

Answer 9

Egg musta come first, dingdong. A chicken can only come from an egg.

Answer 10

neither, evolution through a gradual process came to the chicken as we know it today. So I guess it would be a micro organism
