Chapter 882: A New Alienation Gene
Humans have been investigating the origin of the snake, but this terrifying creature can travel through dimensions and is very mysterious.
So far, the origin of the snake is still a mystery, and little is known about it.
However, through this genetic comparison, at least one thing can be determined.
That is, the Ba Snake and Star Beast civilizations do not belong to the same race at the genetic level.
"In this way, we shouldn't have to worry about being attacked by two 'snakes'." Someone said the first thought that came to mind.
However, Fang Yuan shook his head and said, "This is not necessarily, the Ba Snake does not belong to the Star Beast Civilization, it can only be said that there is a high probability that they will not unite, but it does not mean that the Ba Snake will not appear."
"This terrifying creature is very cunning, and it may appear when the battle between humans and the Star Beast civilization is at its fiercest."
"That's true, but we still have to be vigilant." Admiral Rhodes bowed his head in agreement.
Fang Yuan then asked, "Since there is a Type C alienation gene in the giant snake creature, is it possible that the Star Beast Civilization wants to copy a snake?" ”
Lu Xiuwen nodded and said, "At present, the Institute of Biology also thinks so.
"The Star Beast civilization is to improve the level of civilization through genetic evolution, and every time it annexes a civilization, it will get a leap from the genetic level.
Therefore, the Institute of Biology believes that the Star Beast Civilization should have encountered a creature like the Ba Snake, and the two may have had some intersections before.
"Then, the Star Beast Civilization discovered the strength of the Ba Snake, so it began to modify the genes of the Ba Snake to create an equally powerful creature, which we temporarily call the 'Rift Ba Snake', and distinguish it from the 'Ba Snake'."
Fang Yuan pondered the question: "I have a question, if the Type C gene in the 'Rift Snake' body does not produce a controlling factor, then how does the Star Beast Civilization control this creature. ”
Lu Xiuwen flipped the presentation on the big screen to the next page and explained: "Regarding this point, there is no direct proof to confirm for the time being, but our team speculates that the 'Rift Ba Snake' should be hatched by the Star Beast Mother Nest.
"It's not the same as an alienated person.
"Alienated people are born and raised in human society.
"If there are no control factors in the alienated human body, then the vast majority of the alienated human beings should have a greater sense of belonging to the human race.
"In other words, if there is no control factor in the alienated human body, the star beast civilization will not be able to control the alienated person at all.
"However, the 'Rift Snake' is different, the 'Rift Snake' should be hatched by the Star Beast Nest.
"In other words, the 'Rift Snake' belongs to the Star Beast Mother Nest to give birth, so there is no need for a control factor, and the 'Rift Snake' still belongs to the Star Beast Civilization Race."
When everyone heard this explanation, they all nodded in agreement.
Han Youwei raised her hand and asked, "I have a question, if that's the case, what will happen if the 'Rift Snake' and the real 'Snake' meet?"
"At the genetic level, the two of them should belong to similar or even identical organisms, and perhaps have not yet produced reproductive isolation."
Reproductive isolation is an important criterion for distinguishing species.
If two organisms can reproduce offspring, then the two organisms can usually be considered to be the same kind of organisms.
Of course, there are occasional exceptions, such as mules and ligers.
As for whether there is reproductive isolation between the "rift snake" and the "snake", it is difficult to say.
Lu Xiuwen flipped the presentation to another page and continued: "On this point, the Institute of Biology has already done an analysis.
"We found a genetic fragment of the Rift Stinging Snake in the body of the 'Rift Snake'.
"And the proportion of this gene fragment is not small.
"Therefore, after the analysis of the Institute of Biology, it is believed that the addition of the fissure stinging snake gene may lead to reproductive isolation between the 'fissure snake' and the 'ba'.
However, this cannot be confirmed for the time being.
"Of course, at the very least, it can be considered that 'Rift Snake' and 'Ba Snake' are close relatives at the genetic level.
"As for what will happen after the two meet, it is impossible to speculate."
After Lu Xiuwen finished speaking, he paused and began to summarize: "According to the information we know about the alienation genes, we can roughly divide the alienation genes into two types, one is the invasion type and the other is the enhanced type.
"What does it mean to be invasive?
"Type A and Type B are invasive.
"For example, the Type A alienation gene found in the body of the Thorn Spine Predator, this alienation gene was injected into the Thorn Spine Predator Civilization by the Star Beast Civilization, which eventually led to the Star Beast Civilization swallowing the Thorn Spine Predator Civilization.
"However, we found an interesting phenomenon that there is no type B disagreement gene in spiny predators.
This discovery led us to a guess.
"Maybe when the Star Beast Civilization invaded and annexed the Thorn Spine Predator Civilization, they hadn't yet created a Type B alienation gene.
"And this type B alienation gene may be tailored specifically for humans.
"After all, the spiny predator is not very intelligent, and it seems that it does not need the commanding alienation gene.
"Whether it's type A or type B, both of these are invasive alienation genes.
The newly discovered C-type dissimilation gene belongs to the enhanced dissimilation gene.
"In other words, it is possible that the C-type alienation gene is not used to inject into the bodies of other civilizations, but only to strengthen the powerful creatures cultivated by the Star Beast civilization itself.
"Therefore, the Institute of Biological Research is temporarily optimistic about whether there is a type C alienation gene in humans."
