They don't know it, but they've just asked Biology's Biggest unanswered question...
How Does the Chick Know about Tapping Her Mother's Beak? And
How Does the Mother Know About Regurgitating Food for Her Chick? If the chick doesn’t tap, it starves. If the mother doesn’t regurgitate, the chick starves. BOTH BEHAVIOURS had to appear at exactly the same time. How did it happen? INSTINCT, yes! But... The New Book how does instinct evolve ? Answers the question. How
did this Instinct start? And how did it get into the Bird? THIS MAY WELL BE THE MOST STARTLING AND EYE-OPENING COLLECTION OF SCIENTIFIC FACTS YOU HAVE EVER READ... After all... Whoever
heard of a new-born baby making a
3000+ mile journey home – on its own?
Underwater,at that! That's exactly what young eels do. Their
parents migrate from rivers in They
spawn there, THEN THEY
ALL DIE, AND NEVER RETURN to
Europe.

young eels then swim home to How
can they possibly manage such a gigantic feat? INSTINCT is the only
available answer. But how did the instinct start? And how did it get into the fish in the first place? It
had to be there - perfectly formed from the word ‘go’ – or
eels would be extinct too! They
HAVE
to get to freshwater – there’s none in the So
if the navigational
instinct was in error,
they would swim till they died
in salt water, in the That they would become ‘extinct’
is probably not too strong a description. Those
are just two of the many startling illustrations of instinct in action found
in this book. They are beautiful, bizarre, and unbelievably complex
– and highly capable and truly conscientious scientists have serious problems
accounting for the origin of any one of them. In
every case as you will see, if the instinct is absent, or imperfect,
species extinction would immediately follow. HOWEVER,
AND THIS IS THE ORIGINAL SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY MADE AND DETAILED IN THIS
REMARKABLE BOOK: Not
only virtuoso displays of startling behaviour like those above, but EVERY
SINGLE FUNCTION, of EVERY
SINGLE LIVING CELL, in EVERY
LIVING ORGANISM depends absolutely on
instinct for its survival. Scientists argue about how legs, wings, lungs and every other organ could have originated. Did birds’ wings come from from reptile forelimbs? Did feathers develop from scales? Did fish develop legs and walk on land? It doesn't matter in the slightest now that this discovery is published. Can a single discovery uproot a major scientific theory? This happens from time to time. Here's an example: A very recent discovery (published in the January 2010 issue of Nature – one of the most prestigious scientific journals on the planet) showed that a major plank of the theory of how four-limbed animals originated (called Tiktaalik) was totally mistaken. Tracks of four-limbed animals 18,000,000 years OLDER than Tiktaalik were found! But did that affect the authors' opinions about the evolution of tetrapods? Not at all. That would be too much to expect.

Law
of Asynctropy, first
formally stated in
this book, makes all such arguments highly suspect...
It is the most powerful and constructive accounting for the instinctive behaviour shown by all living organisms. Take
Respiration as the most important example possible.
If an organism cannot respire, then it cannot live. That is how important Respiration really is. Today, we can possibly mix all of the chemicals found in any respiratory cycle in a test tube. But respiration will not take place. The
powering instinct is absent, the driving force is missing. That
simple fact has huge spin-off consequences for theories about existence
of life itself, and for any theory of origins, which are drawn out in
full in
the text. Instinct crosses the barrier of death, somehow As in the case of the eels, there are innumerable examples where the parents die, and the offspring do the same marvellous things that the parents did, WITHOUT EVER SEEING THEM! The young of the Yucca moth (Tegeticula spp) do just that. Full details are in the book. But the author says:
Just as remarkably, a wasp (Eumenes spp) somehow knows the gender of its young before it collects food for it to eat when it hatches! The young hasn't hatched yet!
Source: http://www.metafysica.nl/nature/insect/thieme228_5_6_7.jpg Henri Fabre, the famous discoverer of this wonderful behaviour, had this to say:
And
she provides an escape route for her larva if the prey gets too frisky
in the mud igloo the mother somehow knows how to build!
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potter_wasp And
just to add more fuel to the fire, the mother anaesthetises the
grubs it catches for the young – why? So the young wasp can have fresh
food to eat. She then dies. So
the young wasp never sees its parents – but goes on to do exactly the
same things the parents did! The
naturalist (Henri Fabre,above) who first made these observations was
stunned at the ingenuity displayed – but this is not intelligence, but
instinct in action. And we’re back to the original problem. How
did this instinct originate? And an even more difficult question, how
did it ever enter the genome? (Assuming, of course, that it is
located there. If it isn’t, then the
problems become even more horrendous than they are already). Again
notice – if the instinct was absent or incomplete in any way, then the
species would have perished immediately it first appeared on the planet.
If the young couldn’t feed, then a single generation was all that
could ever have existed. If
it only had poisonous rotting food, it would perish – and without
training in anaesthetics – the mother is able to inject a non-lethal,
paralysing dose of venom into the grubs which are going to be eaten by
the young wasp. And
all of that so far, is meaningless without the igloo-like nest she
builds. Without it, the young would have to forage for itself, the food
grubs would scatter to the four winds, and the wasp species would be
extinct. The full development of this concept is given in the text. So far, we have only mentioned examples from the animal world. The
One
of the very biggest problems for theories of origin, is that plants seem
to ‘act’ with 'purpose'. This is most obvious in the reproduction of
plants (and animals, as shown in the Section on ‘Reproduction’ in
the text). That wonderful, and extremely common species called Vallisneria can be a pest because of its reproductive success. But the way it reproduces is simply mind-blowing. The female flower - UNDERWATER! – produces a stigma which grows up to the surface of the water, and there it produces a substance which creates a small depression in the water round it. The author comments on the difficulty of underwater plants evolving:
The male flower .... well, you’ll just have to read the book, as that would be giving the wonderful game away!
http://www.tank-aquarium.com/upl/Image/vallisneria_gigantea2.jpg There are other huge problems too. The second biggest, is the fact that the land plants we see everywhere are supposed to have descended from the algae (like the seaweeds). How did they get on to land and survive? The process as one theorist says ‘must have been very difficult’! So true! Plants produce roots, which normally grow downwards into the soil and shoots which grow upwards. They could have done the exact oposite – and perished. But look carefully, and you'll notice that these mangrove roots, growing in liquid mud on the sea shores, grow UPWARDS in order to breathe. How did the powering instinct for that unique piece of behaviour originate?
http://naturallyours.blogspot.com/2008/12/41-bao-ka-liao-semakau-post.html What
makes them do this? Instinct. And how did that originate and enter the
genome? The
flowering plants appear with amazing abruptness in the fossil record.
That
mystery still persists, and the instinctive behaviour of plants is an
embarrassment to the botanists. Why do so many plants produce flowers,
with pollen and ovaries, nectar, perfume and colours?
Source: http://www.public.asu.edu/~ickpl/songs/images/rose.jpg Instinctively,
in order to reproduce. Instinctively – because they do not learn how
to do so – it is unlearned behaviour,inbuilt into them, and that is a definition of
instinct. But where does it come from, and how did it enter the genome? This remarkable plant (the Bucket Orchid) is described in the text. It is truly unbelievable what happens, and Darwin himself didn't believe the account until he had verified the fact that the report came from a very competent botanist. Find out for yourself why he was so stunned.

it, and ask your friends, teachers and professors to comment on and
explain these facts. Make sure they get a
complimentary copy. Didn't you ever sit in Biology classes and wonder: How did that happen by itself? Are you tired of the failure of conventional biology to produce convincing explanations for how these things could have occurred? Do you need examples to stimulate exciting conversations? Share these facts and concepts with your children. They will be as fascinated as you will be when you read about these marvellous behaviours. These facts will amaze, astonish and perplex you. The question of how they originated will haunt you as it haunted Darwin. You may not agree with the author's conclusions, but it is very difficult to gainsay the arguments scientifically. The facts are beyond dispute, and very well-attested by many, many competent researchers. It is written in a non-technical way, so everyone - from the merely interested to the technical people - can grasp it with no trouble at all.
