Chapter 153: Mutation
Before they could get an answer from each other's expressions, Candle Dragon spoke again, and once again he asked the question that we couldn't understand, and seemed dissatisfied with our reaction.
"What's the matter, I'm just asking you what you think of the genetics mentioned in this era, and why do you react this way?"
After Candle Dragon's words fell this time, everyone was convinced that what he was asking just now was indeed the genes of the current era, and we did not have auditory hallucinations.
But although we were sure of what we heard, such a big contrast was really tantamount to Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong in the storyteller's mouth, so we couldn't react at all for a while, and we were only at a loss in our minds.
"Senpai, what do you mean by this question?"
However, being silent was not an option, and after noticing the growing dissatisfaction in the candle dragon's expression, I finally mustered up the courage to ask him.
"Senior, you were born a thousand years ago, and this so-called gene theory is the product of modern science, logically speaking, you should not have any intersection with this theory, in this case, why do you have this question?"
"It is true that I have never been exposed to the so-called gene theory, but when I just entered his sea of consciousness with my divine thoughts, I suddenly found that this so-called gene theory is actually extremely interesting, and I can say without exaggeration that this gene theory can even reach a level that human beings cannot reach."
After hearing my courageous question, the candle dragon understood why we were acting so strangely, only to see him smile faintly, then look at the spring pavilion, and his tone returned to calm.
"However, he is not very familiar with this so-called gene theory, and I have only discovered it in his sea of knowledge, but I am not completely sure, so I will think of asking you to try to refine my concept of this so-called gene."
It was only after the candle dragon explained to me that it dawned on us.
It seems that our previous guess was correct, and that the candle dragon, which was born thousands of years ago, was indeed never exposed to the genes of this era.
However, it is not difficult to find that the candle dragon has shown great interest in this genetic theory.
Candle Dragon found a gene in Chunting's sea of knowledge, and then he actually asked us because Chunting didn't know very well, so it is not difficult to see that this so-called gene theory is definitely more complicated than we imagined, otherwise it will definitely not arouse Candle Dragon's interest.
But obviously, although the people present are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, either outstanding in cultivation or amazing in force, and have a far beyond ordinary people's understanding of those stories in the past, but for this so-called gene, everyone actually has no detailed understanding.
All of a sudden, the scene fell into embarrassment again.
And at this moment, it seemed to be seen that we didn't know much about this issue, so it seemed that this journey was just simply by our side, and Qi Zhi, who had done almost nothing, quietly hid behind me, poked out her little head and said tentatively.
"Brother Chuan, Brother Ting, I actually have some understanding of the genes you are talking about."
Hearing Qi Zhi's words, everyone was overjoyed.
However, although Qi Zhi said that she knew something, out of caution, the careful Xue Nan still walked behind me and held Qi Zhi with one hand to confirm softly.
"Xiao Qi Zhi, this matter is very important, are you sure you really know anything about genes?"
"I really understand the theory of genes, Sister Xue Nan, you believe me, I won't lie to you."
Perhaps it was Xue Nan's gentle voice that made the fear Qi Zhi feel slowly subside, and we saw that after hearing Xue Nan's words, Qi Zhi seemed to have confidence, looked at everyone and said proudly.
"Brothers and sisters, you also know that I am gifted, born to be able to communicate with beasts, because of my talent, so the family has arranged for me early in the future, when I was in school, my major was biology related to beasts, and this genetic theory is part of biology."
Hearing Qi Zhi's proud answer, everyone was suddenly shocked.
Although Qi Zhi looks like a child, she is actually the same age as me, but she looks a little younger, and if she majored in biology when she was in school, then she may indeed have a more detailed understanding of this vital gene than we do.
Because Qi Zhi looks like a child, each of us will unconsciously lower our volume when talking to Qi Zhi, and Xue Nan is naturally no exception.
"Xiao Qi Zhi is awesome, there are so many things that people here don't know, I didn't expect Xiao Qi Zhi to know something, it's amazing."
Therefore, after Xue Nan heard Qi Zhi's answer, he did not ask in a hurry, but first praised him like a child, and then asked Qi Zhi seriously in a straight tone.
"Then Xiao Qizhi will tell her brothers and sisters, what is the so-called gene?"
Hearing Xue Nan's praise, Qi Zhi's face couldn't help but show a hint of joy, after all, she was a child, so her tone at this time was full of undisguised pride.
"Okay, then I'll try to briefly introduce the concept of genes to you!"
However, although she still has a child's heart, Qi Zhi is a person who knows the importance after all, so after this sentence fell, she immediately changed her tone and seriously told us about the genes in her cognition.
"If you use modern language to explain, the so-called genes are actually genetic factors, which support the basic structure and performance of life, store all the information in the race, blood type, growth and apoptosis process of each life, not only including the interdependence of environment and heredity, but also the interpretation of important physiological processes such as the reproduction of life and cell division."
Hearing this, the candle dragon suddenly interrupted Qi Zhi's narration, as if what Qi Zhi said was not what he cared about, and what he really wanted to understand was actually another mystery.
"Little girl, will the genes be immutable?"
Although Qi Zhi is childlike, she is not pampered and arrogant, after hearing Candle Dragon interrupt her words, she did not overreact, but listened carefully to the question in Candle Dragon's mouth before continuing to answer.
"Of course not, genes have two characteristics, the first is that it can faithfully replicate itself, so as to maintain the basic characteristics of organisms, and the second characteristic is that genes may also produce mutations and mutations at certain moments, as long as mutations or mutations occur, the genes are naturally different from before."
