During the breeding season, horseshoe crabs migrate to shallow coastal waters. A male selects a female and clings to her back. Often, several males surround the female and all fertilize together which makes it easy to spot and count females as they are the large center carapace surrounded by 3-5 smaller ones. The female digs a hole in the sand and lays her eggs while the male(s) fertilize them. The female can lay between 60,000 and 120,000 eggs in batches of a few thousand at a time. The eggs take about two weeks to hatch; shore birds eat many of them before they hatch. The larvae molt six times during the first year.[15] Raising horseshoe crabs in captivity has proven to be difficult. Some evidence indicates mating takes place only in the presence of the sand or mud in which the horseshoe crab's eggs were hatched. It is not known with certainty what is in the sand that the crab can sense, nor how they sense it.[16]
You have it there, it is a perfect merged species.
Because of it's extreme reproduction rate, allways expanding at eulerian number growth.
Now we take Mendeleians inheritance into account then it will produce an geneticly stable elders generations only with very slight genetic shifting.
So this is a reason why it did not evolve.
It also consumes small food, you can find it anywhere in the ocean.
They also have very good sights, a really high amount of eyes gives them almost 100% higher visibility angle than humans and this optic system also operates with far more wavelenghs.
They also have blue blood, which is used in the medical industry to detect certain bacteria. It is actually really cool, but the medical industry bleeding them out is also bringing them to extinction, and there is no substitute for what their blood does.
They also use to creep me out as a kid when they would be on our beach, but I think they are cool as fuck now.
Camden Lewis
Their blood is also one of the most valuable fluids in the world. Literally worth more than gold.

Thomas Moore
I use to live on the east end of Long Island. They use to be around all the time, now they are a pretty rare sight. The marine life is not like it use to be when I was a kid. Sad.
John Kelly
Why would they evolve if they're doing fine?
Hudson Evans
They don't evolve because they are well adapted to their environment in the current form. Just that.

Yes, religitard, you win. No possible argument against magical invisible space Jew god poofing everything into existence exactly as it is now and making some things already dead to bury under the ground to fuck with us while showing observable change in genetic structures and DNA over time consistently to fuck with us even more.
Josiah Nguyen
And if you were to move them to a different environment they go extinct very quickly. Because "evolution" takes such a long time. Yet somehow something was able to live long enough in order to adapt to its environment.
Henry Ortiz
>observable change >entirely new species emerging
Only one of these matters, and only one has happened. And that one does not hold both attributes simultaneously.
Nathaniel Kelly
This kills the crab

evolution is dependant on environmental pressures, most animals living in the deep sea, for example, have remained almost identical because the pressures of life in the deep sea have remained mostly unchanged

There is no magic threshold where a new species emerges, my man, it's minute changes to genetic code all the way down.

Thanks, good to know.
They also need special sand to reproduce, they are really hard to breed in farms so the lack of sand (rising sealevel, rising silicate demand) are extinction factors.
So they catch them alive because it is more profitable.
Landon Collins
yes, a random mutation that the species can survive but creates a fundamental difference
Liam Campbell
fucking kek
Leo Garcia
gradual changes, sudden transplantation of an organism to a vastly divergent locale is not a gradual change
Brody Sullivan
/vp/ is much funnier than this.
Liam Perry
Not him but I have a beach house in Cape May NJ, on the Delaware Bay and there's a shitload here on our beaches
Samuel King
Nope. DNA is coded from the beginning. No information is ever added. Mutations alter existing information, they do not add entirely new information.
Nathan Martinez
The deep sea has remained the same.
How did anything come to evolve to be capable to survive in it if it never went through gradual change? How did it survive to begin with? Do you mean to say.... it was made to be able to survive? Because that isn't evolution.
Eli Baker
well if there's no real way to distinguish a species, then there's no way to distinguish a genus and soo on, etc, et al, until we're literally the same thing as a mushroom because you can't understand granular categorisation methodology
Carson Rodriguez
thanks for the (U), thought no-one got the joke ;__;
Eli Campbell
pressure, salinity, light level, changes to sea level, extenuating factors introduced by surrounding marine environs to the local biosphere, the fucking tides, presence of nutrient inflow or production by lower order organisms, et al
there's a reason it's a stem field and not a social science
Noah Ortiz
>Nope. DNA is coded from the beginning. No information is ever added. Mutations alter existing information, they do not add entirely new information.
Sometimes new chromosome pairs appear or disappear.
Cooper Turner
As someone who studied marine science in undergrad I can tell you that its actually really easy to raise them in captivity...at least for a while after the eggs hatch. The lab next to mine was really good at it. They're right^ It's not really about continuing to evolve, more so about reaching a point where its a stable population, but you already mentioned that...so your point?
Not necessarily. There are ways to perform this task without killing the animal, but based on how many times you do it and how old/stressed it is, it can be fatal. Most current practices that take blood for lab are non-fatal. They are still common in DE and MD, but yes, their numbers are on the decline. Mostly this is due to over fishing. They used to be used as fertilizer and just recently (last few years) there has been an effort in these states to try and conserve the population.
Mason Diaz
Do you have have a single proofs to back that claim up?
Daniel Cooper
Entire sections of chromosomes or even chromosomes themselves can be deleted or copied, what are you talking about?
Brayden Hughes
"Harvesting horseshoe crab blood involves collecting and bleeding the animals, and then releasing them back into the sea. Most of the animals survive the process"
Cameron Ortiz
its just a wild pokeman. those shits dont evolve. you got to make them fight stuff like bats and peoples house cats.
every one knows that
Gabriel Sanchez
There is a way to distinguish species. What you just said has absolutely no meaning. No new species have emerged. Unless you include extinction periods... and then you have evolution occurring at a much faster rate than what is "shown" in the fossil record. So which is it?
Doesn't answer the question.
Joseph Gutierrez
>why hasn't this animal evolved maybe it has
Ryan Martinez
This, it developed it's defense mechanism some point 451 million years ago or more and has been able to survive and keep the species going. Resulting in no need for it to change
Julian Watson
Not new information. Just duplication. A copy of the information already present. And usually broken aka lacking information not gaining new information.
Yeah it's called genetics. Again, not new information. Copies of existing information. The fact you can't distinguish the difference says a lot. You shouldn't be here.
Kayden Gray
>kabutops i pray to god they never evolve, they are creepy enough already, dont need them to become bipedal with sword hands
Jaxon Ortiz
Okay you're right because you say you're right and everyone else is dumb. Good argument.
Elijah Diaz
Arguing against evolution after the discovery of nylon-eating bacteria has gotten laughably pathetic.
Adrian Watson
>They are still common in DE and MD, but yes, their numbers are on the decline. Mostly this is due to over fishing. They used to be used as fertilizer and just recently (last few years) there has been an effort in these states to try and conserve the population.
My theory was just that they reached the elder Generation only state at an overwhelmingly fast rate, causing it to be stable since 450k+ years once they adapted that breeding system.
Carter Cook
nice triple
Landon Howard
And what if the copied sequence mutates?
Henry Phillips
...
Owen Cox
Yes that is exactly what evolutionists say but instead of referring to biology I am referring to genetics. Just because you don't know shit about genetics doesn't mean other people don't.
Liam Brown
It mutates because it loses information.
Hudson Lee
i thought the earth was only 6000 years old? checkmate
Wyatt Hall
But were you there when the genetic information was lost? Did you see it happen?
Levi Reed
>Nope. DNA is coded from the beginning. No information is ever added. Mutations alter existing information, they do not add entirely new information.
But that's like saying English is one sentence because the words don't change, but even that is wrong. You have have totally different amid acid compositions if you needed to.
Juan Anderson
>bacteria which reproduces at an incredible rate mutates in order to breakdown nylon >turning into an entirely different species over millions of years starting from bacteria and archaea and then magically turned into all life you see also know as everything classified under eukaryote.
Yet the driving factor of evolution is supposedly the environment and yet you see so much different life "forming" within the EXACT same environment.
Think about it.
William Evans
>Not new information. Just duplication. A copy of the information already present.
Yeah, many numbers of the 4 number system, meaning complete new codes when chromoaomes get mixed.
> And usually broken aka lacking information not gaining new information.
It is not broken, they are deactivated, that's all. You can activate them with the right know-how, I would love to have an DNA Assembler.. let's see what happens in the future.
>This, it developed it's defense mechanism some point 451 million years ago or more and has been able to survive and keep the species going. Resulting in no need for it to change
No, it was the adaptation of the breeding system, afterwards it gained that defensive system very quick, because of this "kickstarter".
Christian Cooper
What do you mean by that? Do you know what mutation is?
You can get both more base pairs and different sequence from mutation.
If for example Adenine is changed into Guanine the sequence is now different.
sections can be inserted, deleted, nucleotides substituted and the reading frame for a gene can shift.
Isn't that new information?
Noah Cruz

You are completely right. Good explanation.
Landon Howard
topkek, but where were you when evolution happened? Did you see it happen. Get a grip kid
That is a false equivalence. And it would also be stupid to say. All DNA is made up of the same 4 nucleobases. They can be arranged in different manners, for example you and I are 99% the same as far as DNA code, but that little difference makes up everything that is different about us.
But every last bit of it is the same code. If you were to have a sentence, and then duplicate that sentence, but in the duplication process, the words became jumbled, you would still have the same words, just in different order.
Not new information. You could also lose words entirely, but never gain.
Christopher Evans
This damn app, I should use my PC more frequently..
Adam Howard
More base pairs of the same information. Different sequence of the same information.
Not new information.
Camden Miller
Deactivated, aka lost. Aka not a gain of NEW information.
Elijah Edwards
Nice deflection but since you didn't see it happen you don't know that it actually did. On the other hand I was there for the horseshoe crab evolving so it looks like I win this round buddy.
Benjamin Green
>I put the word "magically" in my description of evolution to indicate the part that makes me confused and scared. Kys. But also I don't understand your point about the evolution occurring in the "same environment"... the mutated/evolved (same thing, ultimately) was discovered in an area with factory effluent full of bits of nylon. And nylon has existed for how long? A few decades?
Elijah Cook
>Deactivated, aka lost. Aka not a gain of NEW information.
Be precise, lost is something else than deactivated.

Still not new information. You be precise.
Josiah Cooper

No, it discusses this often appearing Thread but starting with an theory wich is plausible instead of having the standard poltard thread this one has at least a bare minimum informationaccumulation with some sense behind it.
Kevin Sullivan
So based on 'some evidence' and a mating process with the sand that we don't quite understand, we can disprove evolution?
Cooper Jackson
yes hans, the fucking horseshoe crab is the apex of sentient life how I wish I was a prehistoric crab >kys
Ryder Miller
The evolutionist answer is that we didn't, which is correct. Where they go wrong is when they continue with saying we evolved from a common ancestor.
Lincoln Jackson
different nucleotide sequence = different protein structure
Lincoln Reed
And still no new information gained. Use google better next time.
Sebastian Miller

In some dort they are, they achieved min. 450k years of genetic stability at an advaned level of evolution.
Maybe their life is quite nice, eapecually the vast amounts if eyes sound interesting, I would like to know now their perception is.
William Rodriguez
If you want to discuss an often appearing but off topic thread, then discuss why it's being posted on politics board.
Most often it becomes a religious debate, easy to fall in to but ultimately fruitless
Aiden Watson

Gute Nacht.
Grayson White
Did you personally check the genes to make sure there was no gain of information? How do you know if you didn't see it happen?
Carter Myers
So you're happy with an observation and description of evolution that occurs over several years but refuse to believe that more change could happen given more time? This is what I meant about pathetic, but honestly I think you might be 'on the spectrum' you seem to grasp the words but not the concept.

Adaptation is not speciation.
Yep. It is empirical science, it can be observed. Unlike the theory of evolution.
