X is the egg, and its better than Y which makes the Hen
Thats the N and W and er... what was I saying again?

he didnt specift what KIND of egg came before the hen or not. just eggs in general..
There where millions of species before the hen that layed eggs as well...
Y?Quote:

Well.. No animals "suddenly evolves" while its in the egg.. ;)Quote:

Point to ONE specie, animal, whatever, which suddenly CHANGED.
If a bird has a hard time out-flying predator birds then they will learn to fly faster as time goes..
I have no idea what caused the hen to become a hen, but alot of factors in it's life must have caused it to evolve into a hen.
So I still say that the hen must have been first :)
It does.Quote:

While in the egg, it developes itself from a embryo into a chicken.
Looking at it from a human prespective, the egg would combine its genes with the ones from the sperm cell, and during this is it where the embryo would evolve into something else than "intended". Same would go for a hen/egg. The genes/sperm/egg cell could have been evolved or altered, which would make a hen out of a (quite) similar bird.
And no, no evolution happens during the generation (which is affected), it affects the coming generations.
As for what and when made specifically the hen, it depends how and where you look on the evolution: During the long time of evolution from amoebas to todays species, or "from a flying creature to specifically the hen"
OOOOOOOOWWWW!!!!
You make my head hurt... :(
I agree partially Techno.
In the case of the Hen and the Egg, the Egg Indeed did come first. As the evoloutionary process you refered to allows progression of species through generations. The first full fledged member of the Hen specied was indeed from an Egg, so "The egg came first".
In a sense of life itself on this planet. You have to look at what you consider an "egg". The forming of life through a single cell organism, you may state that the organism has no egg and was created in essence without a fetal stage. But you can also argue that being a single cell organism progressing to a state of animated life we would recognize today was it's fetal period, and it was indeed an "egg" itself. It's all very grey when speaking in terms of life itself and origins.
In the case of the hen, I know numerous studies that theorize that the hen was a "victim" of punctuated equilibrium and not simple evoulution to a more ground-friendly bird. Having the genetic mutation at some point in their line where the ground-ridden species was more successful in foraging for food and surviving the cold weather.
Anyway this is an AO board.

Yes it did. I was there.Quote:

That's because you were so ****ing drunk you couldn't stand straight. Me and Ganesha had to carry you home.

Just want to clarify something here.
The egg was made first (you could call it a prototype). Noone remember who actually made this, or what the original use was. Insertion into bodycavities was on use that was fairly popular.
Then the hen and the rooster was made, by God.
The rooster and hen got real pissed one night and then the hen laid some eggs. She never told any of us how the hell she got 'em in there. Having no hands and all I mean.

As it looks now, our thumbs are growing longer, our heads are getting bigger, our bodies are shrinking and we are sleeping around with everyone so that in a few hundred thousand years we will be a bunch of grey aliens travelling back in time to experiment on ourselves to recreate the human race as it was before so that we can place the old species on another planet as we previously were planted here on earth? Am I rambling? What was the question again?
