evolution is not what it used to be - /sci/

2 billion years ago it was possible to create all the forms of life we see today but it is no longer so (or to be more accurate it was back then possible to continue evolution without limits) more than 1 billion years ago, bacteria were bottlenecked, non archae-bacteria, meaning just the regular bacteria, are forever locked in simplified form, they cannot evolve into multicellular life meanwhile archae continued to create multicellular fungi, plantae, and animalia then prototypes of single celled archae died out and only specialized niches survived for the future (those who live in hot thermal vents or in super acid conditions and other weird adaptations) no archae exist today which can create multicellular life, there will never be new beginnings of multicellular life again since all single celled organisms capable of doing that have died animals were bottlenecked 550 million years ago, the genes that allow new body forms were selected out and they can never happen again but for a short time dozens of different animal body types evolved, in merely less than 100 million years locked in forms: -snail (octopus is a snail from a branch which was not yet completely locked into a non mutable snail body) a bit more variable form: -insect/crustacean/spider (they have more numerous species than most other animals and all have variying forms except only the insects show remarkable variety because insects retain 550 million year old mutable DNA material which everyone else lost, except for vertebrates who also have it) really locked: -penis worms, they have looked exactly the same for like 700 million years plants: -land plants look like animals in many ways, ocean plants are really primitive on the level of bacteria, but due to some stroke of luck, just one of the plant ancestors, maybe 500 million years ago, which made a succesful landing, was from a lineage that retained the mutable DNA found from 500 million year old organisms

The more evolved you are the smaller your DNA is

Evolution is fake and gay

I understand the sentiment but some of this is just completely wrong.>then prototypes of single celled archae died out and only specialized niches survived for the future (those who live in hot thermal vents or in super acid conditions and other weird adaptations) your understanding of archaea is about 50 years out of date, they're way more common than we thought and the Asgard archaea that eventually became eukaryotes were likely among those hyperspecialized extremophiles, so specialized they were essentially bound to those bacteria they eventually engulfed, their new mitochondrial motors then gave them the surplus energy to produce increasingly complex organisms>animals were bottlenecked 550 million years ago, the genes that allow new body forms were selected out and they can never happen again you basically have it the other way around, it's the apparition of genes that fixed body plans that both allowed the initial explosion in forms and locked in each phyla.>only the insects show remarkable variety because insects retain 550 million year old mutable DNA material which everyone else lost crustaceans are by far the most incredibly variable arthropods, insects have rather rigid body plans by comparison, though they're more diverse and mutable than arachnids etc admittedly.>ocean plants are really primitive on the level of bacteria kind of correct, most green algae are very basic outside of some land plants that recolonized the ocean, but you should look outside plants proper, into brown algae and especially kelp (which in fact appeared rather recently)

>really locked: >-penis worms, they have looked exactly the same for like 700 million years Because penis is the most perfect form. The Greeks knew this. Plato wrote about this.
