how many generations of inbreeding would it take for humans to turn into x-men? (or other comic strip heroes)?

Answer 1

c'mon, buddy... i think you can come up with a better excuse for wanting to (COPULATE WITH) your sister than wondering if interfamilial relations can create mutants...

take this question to the incest forum...

Answer 2

How many generations of inbreeding would it take for humans to turn into x-men? (or other comic strip heroes)? Great Question, I think reality has the answer and the answer is never unless you get strike by a super power nuclear thunder or a huge Nuclear Beam.. Most likely it will certainly kill you, but If you live than your lucky and might have limited mobility and life expectancy.


Another Great Answer from Marco the Great.

Answer 3

All inbreeding will do is give you a population that is very genetically homogenous and that has a large percentage of people with recessive traits like blue eyes and red hair (and cystic fibrosis). Inbreeding does not create mutations, it simply creates a breeding pool where recessive mutations already existing in the founder population are more likely to be expressed.

If you want to create X-men style mutants what you need is a population with a high mutation rate, such as might be caused by radiation. Even then, you'd be much more likely to end up with a bunch of deformed cripples than supermen.

Answer 4

One 1st has to find animals with some charateristics they wish to "fix" in a future population, then inbreed the offspring that have this/these characteristic(s). Dog & cattle breeders do this all the time. I'm a cattle rancher working to produce big, rugged fast growing lean beef from the Angus & Bison (Cattle & the American Buffalo.) One must realize that inbreeding can produce both superior & inferior animals. With dogs & cattle those that do not measure up are destroyed. I suspect someone would object if we tried this with humans.
When seeking plant mutations, we sometimes radiate a large number of plant seeds thus causing gene mutations. About 1 in 100,000 will produce a healthy plant with differing characteristics that "may" have a future value. Most, however, produce sickly plants or fail to germinate. Again, this would be a poor way to induce gene mutations in humans.

Answer 5

This would take genetic engineering at the highest levels and that would mean one target (we'll call it) nothing more. That doesn't mean they could be multiplied, it would only be the one.
The cost and secrecy would be so high as to be intolerant. It just wouldn't work. Maybe in thousands of years?

Answer 6

This wouldn't work. Look at the royals. Both in Europe and Egypt. They inbred so much they started going crazy and dying of odd and painful diseases.

Answer 7

Not sure of the generational levels it took, but the offspring are among us. Now if a savant bred with a savant, we might have problems.

Answer 8

NONE. imbreeding just creates odd features. and will never give someone superhero powers. it will just make their faces all messed up like the egyptians of the past.

Answer 9

you are reading to many comic books.the closest they can come is to breed and make cyborgs.also with genetic engineering they can enhance certain body functions.
