Chapter 175: The Epic of Life Evolution
[I'm sorry for mixing subjective emotions in this record that should be an objective record of history, but every time I think of the pictures that happened back then, even if my emotions are about to be lost, I still can't help but feel a little excited. 】
[In the later investigations, we excavated all over the Arctic, found all the fossils of the ancestors of the Muba people and the fossils of other vegetation, and found that there was a fault period of nearly 20,000 years at the beginning of the birth of the Muba people. 】
[At that time, the ancestors of the former Muba people had completely disappeared due to the squeezing of living space, and the original trees that were mutated from the descendants of the Muba people were active in the Arctic, and clusters of lush mosses.
Even in the early days of galaxies, these mosses and primordial trees evolved rapidly, adapting to various environments, and began to spread beyond the Arctic in 20,000 years. 】
[The planet is alive.]
Life spreads out of their Arctic origins, which means that when the planet calms down further and the planet cools down, these primitive life forms will not all disappear because the Arctic cools down to minus degrees Celsius.
Unless there is a planetary cataclysm, these lives will always exist. 】
[At this time, new Muba people appeared, they came down from the volcanic belt, brought pieces of glass, and the two branches on their bodies evolved into hands.
They like to survive close to sunny rocks, and put glass pieces on the rocks to reflect the sun's rays on their bodies to get more sunlight. 】
In the video screen, a group of new Muba people less than 80 cm tall are taking root and growing on the edge of the rocks, looking ignorant and stupid, like little tree people in fairy tales.
Whenever the sun moves, the angle of sunlight changes, they will slowly stretch out their upper limbs, which are only two fingers, to move the glass piece, so that the sunlight will always reflect on their bodies.
Compared to the tall shepas who are more than two meters tall at the beginning of the video, these shepas do not bear much resemblance, they have no mouths, they are also very short, their upper limbs are not so flexible, and they only have two fingers.
But Lu Yi and the others who saw this understood in their hearts that the Muba people had survived and stood firm in the cruel evolutionary elimination.
In the primitive period of evolution before insects, before animals, and without all predator life, the active upper limbs played a far more powerful role than the movable lower limbs.
[What happened to the ancestors of the primitive Muba people in the volcanic zone, and how it underwent evolutionary transformation, this is no longer possible to find out in later generations.
When we investigated in later generations, we found that less than 2,000 years after the New Muba people walked out of the volcanic belt, the volcano erupted once and caused a strong earthquake, and then erupted twice in the next million years before it fell silent and turned into an extinct volcano.
The lava from the volcanic eruption and the destruction of the geological layer by the earthquake have erased all the traces of evolution left by the ancestors of the primitive Muba, and only some traces prove that the new Muba people came out of this volcanic belt. 】
[The new Muba people who were taken away from the volcano do not yet have wisdom, but they have the instinct to think. 】
[The new Muba people came out of the volcanic belt and were still driven by the primitive moss and primitive trees on the surface, but unlike 20,000 years ago, the primitive Muba people at that time could only choose to move and dodge, and finally they could not hide and were invaded by all living space and fell into extinction. 】
[When the new Muba people encountered the surrounding trees blocking the sun, they began to ignorantly try to use their two movable upper limbs to push away the branches that blocked the sun.
There is no way to do it for trees that are too tall, but for new primordial trees, it works. 】
[The newly-born original trees were broken off and could not grow, and the Muba people finally won back a game with their own evolution in this sunshine competition, and there were no more primordial trees to grow next to them, and no primordial trees to block the sunshine of the Muba people. 】
[By breaking off the upper limbs and strangling the new primeval trees, after the old primeval trees died and fell one after another, all the primordial trees grew in the rugged area, and they could no longer cross the branches of the Muba people to snatch the sun.
The moss on the surface is shading from the lush canopy of the Muba people, and it cannot grow well to rob the Muba people of soil nutrients.
The wind blows the canopy of the Muba people, without the competition of sunlight from the trees and the nutrient competition of the moss, the sunlight is not covered and the increase of the glass sheets, and the torsos of the Muba people are getting thicker and taller......]
The evolution of life in the video continues, unlike the chemical soup that the earth has been boiling for 3.2 billion years, and it was not until the Aurora that it evolved from single-celled life to multicellular life.
Mars is the origin of life in the North Pole, because there is no disturbance of water currents, after a period of calm environment, it took hundreds of millions of years for the miracle of life to evolve from single-celled life to multicellular life, when these lives adapted to survive in the initial cruel environment, when they spread out of the North Pole, Mars was covered with colorful life has become inevitable.
Just like a hundred flowers competing for bloom, Martian life walking out of the North Pole is like ancient life on the earth climbing onto land, and the epic of life begins to be staged.
The Muba people restored and sorted the ancient lives discovered by later generations in pursuit of the origin of life according to the time of birth, and restored this glorious life epic buried in the history of time as much as possible.
Life has exploded with amazing adaptability and potential in the process of reproduction and inheritance, and the experts on the origin of life in the Mars exploration program are watching the continuous images in the video, watching the evolution of life equivalent to the Sinian period of the earth.
Coelenterates of primitive jellyfish appeared, annelids of primitive worms, arthropods of primitive insects, and a variety of vegetation appeared......
All kinds of life are also constantly appearing in the passage of time, evolving, transforming, and being eliminated, the only thing that has not changed much is the figure of the Muba, time has not left much traces on them, and the probability of mutation and evolution of offspring is getting smaller and smaller, which means that their genes are beginning to tend to be stable.
The emergence of primitive insect predators also posed a threat to them that can be called ancient life, and in the early days of insect appearance, a large number of Muba people died because the canopy and branches were eaten by insects.
But just as the new Muba people emerged from the volcanic belt and used their still immature and ignorant thinking instinct to learn to use their movable upper limbs to crush the branches of primitive trees to snatch the sun, slowly the Muba people began to learn to use their movable upper limbs to drive away insects.
Their upper limbs are also becoming more and more slender, reaching out to touch the canopy directly, allowing them to have their torso whenever an insect comes to eat their canopy, and destroying it whenever an insect lays eggs on them.
Eventually, they even learn to recognize which insect will come to eat them, and if they encounter the eggs of this insect, they will destroy them mercilessly.
Gradually, no more insects disturbed the life of this group of ancient people, because the insects and animals that like to eat the shepherds either changed their diets, or they all died out of their minds.
In this evolutionary competition, the Muba people go from rout to victory, with the victors continuing to survive and reproduction, and the losers withdrawing from the stage.
In this glorious epic of life evolution, the Muba people are special.
This is not special because they are the only kind of mixed life that is stable and stable, that is, a hybrid life of animal and plant family, and life that can actively hunt and photosynthesize has repeatedly appeared in the course of evolution, but they have all been eliminated because they cannot adapt.
This is special because they will use simple tools, such as glass, crystal, or the reflective branches and leaves of some special plants to reflect light and get more sunlight for themselves.
What is special is that they have the instinct to think, and when they encounter a crisis, they will try to change it.
When it comes to the evolution of the body, they are undoubtedly losers, they don't move fast, they don't have evolved outlets and digestive organs to eat, they can't take deep roots to get more water and nutrients, they can't grow too tall to get more sunlight.
But this precious thinking instinct, combined with a pair of movable upper limbs, gives them an unparalleled advantage in this competition for life.
"Did the Muba people turn over Mars in later generations and find out all the fossils of life?"
As the video played forward, Professor Su couldn't help but wonder as he watched the various types of life appear on the screen, and the range of these life forms spread throughout Mars.
He doesn't think that these lives are all fabricated by the Muba people themselves, and they are showing them a science fiction film on the evolution of life that spans 4 billion years.
Only when these lives have appeared, the relevant fossils have been found by the Muba people, the survival time period of fossil life has been studied, and the appearance and living environment of their life have been restored, will they appear in this glorious life epic.
"Not necessarily."
Lu Yi thought of the strange distribution of carbon elements on Mars at this moment, and had a faint guess in his heart, shook his head and said: "The sun was born 4.6 billion years ago, and planets such as Mars and Earth were also born after the sun.
Since the Muba people said that their evolutionary history was traced to 500 million years after the birth of Mars, then they died out 4 billion years ago, and the entire evolutionary and civilization process is only about 100 million years, even if the time span is too long, this data cannot be too accurate, it will not exceed 130 million years at most.
100 million years is a relatively general time scale in geological layers, and it is not uncommon to hollow out fossils within 100 million years.
In addition, the planet was born five or six hundred million years ago, although the planet structure is stable, but the volcanic eruption is still in the end of the active period, once the volcanic eruption occurs, the sunlight in the area of tens of kilometers will be blocked by the volcanic ash in the air.
As a form of life with photosynthesis, when they evolved intelligence and dominated the planet, the disasters caused by resources were much more terrifying than those of us as predators. ”
