Eric Rand's words reminded Li Menghua, and he immediately re-compared the genes of the near-ornichian dragon with the genes of other birds, this time focusing on genes related to oxygen consumption. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

For example, the red blood cell content is compared with magpies, ATP density is compared with falcons, lung capacity is compared with ducks, absorption efficiency of blood vessel walls is compared with swans, and oxygen consumption is compared with pelicans......

After round of comparison, Li Menghua compared almost all the birds in the gene pool with the nearornitosaurus, and he was surprised to find that the genes related to oxygen consumption were very similar to modern birds, and it was almost considered that it had an ancient body, but it had a modern oxygen-depleting system.

This suggests that the nearornithosaurus was not genetically mutated, but genetically mutated, but retained its appearance and form, which was not suitable for birds.

Could it be that genetic mutation and natural selection only occurred in the body of the nearornithosaurus?

This...... Unscientific!

This led to more questions, and Li Menghua continued along this line of thought, and began to compare the digestive system of the near-bird dragon, and the result was something that surprised him even more.

Li Menghua found that the digestive system of the nearornithosaurus was perfectly adapted to the vegetation of tropical broad-leaved forests, but if memory serves, the nearninilosaurus should have fed on ferns.

What's going on?

The Ornithosaurus had perfectly mutated its digestive system, but it had left no variation in appearance.

This...... Unscientific!

There is a bigger problem, since the nearornithosaur can mutate, and has completed the mutation, it means that the nearornithosaurus should have lived for at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years so far.

This magnitude of time is the basis for genetic variation to act and form a solid genetic trait, and it is difficult to form an ethnic genetic trait without such a long period of time.

That is to say, if the near-ornithosaurus is what it is now, and has the current genes, then the near-ornithosaurus should have lived in the tropical jungle of Xishui when there were human beings.

But...... It doesn't!

If the ornithosaurus was hundreds of thousands of years old, it was long enough for it to spread around the world, enough for it to spread to every corner of the tropical jungle along the Eurasian subcontinent.

In particular, plant-eating birds such as the Nearornithosaurus have sufficient facilities to achieve full species dispersal.

But...... It still doesn't!

Xishui is the only place where the Ornithosaurus has been found so far, and before that, the dinosaurs were indeed extinct, and the Ornithosaurus is the only dinosaur that has just appeared in the field of human vision.

Previously, there was no record of it at any time and in any place.

At this time, there is another question, will there be some kind of bird that suddenly undergoes atavistic mutation, suddenly turns into a near-bird dragon, and appears in front of the world?

It's also a possibility.

But this possibility was subsequently rejected by Li Menghua, the reason is still genetic, and the genetic sequence of the near-ornithosaurus is very different from that of modern birds.

As a simple example, each group of genes should have an address on the DNA, just like the room number, you live in Unit 502, Unit 4, Building 3, then this is your only address, and the spatial orientation of this address is blocked by you, and other genes can only live in other rooms.

The genome of the near-ornithosaurus has been neatly arranged, for example, the heart gene is in the third row of three, and the brain gene is in the second row of two, and the two genes do not live in the same building, and they will definitely not get together in normal times.

But the genome sequence of modern birds is obviously different, and the heart genes and brain genes suddenly live in the same building, and the two are still door to door.

Similar situations abound when it comes to genetic comparison, and playing atavistic in this case is an exaggeration!

This means that if a bird, let's say an owl wants to play atavistic and become a near-ornithosaurus, then it first needs to break up its own DNA, into real pieces, pieces in genome units, and then reassemble them into the order of near-ornithosaurus, and there must be no mistakes in the middle, and it must be formed all at once.

Not only that, but it also needs to discard all the other genomes that mutated and hybridized after 150 million years before it can become what Ornithosaurus is now.

Is this possible?

A series of impossibilities, a series of paradoxes, it seems that this near-ornithosaurus is a contradiction composed of various contradictions that violate common sense and science.

Why?

Why is this happening?

Li Menghua can't ride his sister for a hundred years!

A huge question mark filled Li Menghua's mind, making him want to stop, making him wander, like a fly in a glass bottle, all directions were hit by walls, all ways out were denied, and he was nowhere to be found......

On this day, Li Menghua participated in a coordination meeting of various departments, this time it was an inter-departmental cooperation meeting around the Xishui Reserve, and the main topic was how to better cooperate with the reserve, protect the near birds and dragons, do a good job in research, and also be able to promote the development of the local tourism industry.

There were many departments attending the meeting, not only scientific researchers, but also interfaces from more than a dozen relevant departments such as customs, land, forestry, animals, jingcha, and armed police.

The meeting was open, and Li Menghua was named.

"Mr. Li, you are an expert of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and you discovered the near-bird dragon at the beginning, you can tell you, what is going on with this near-bird dragon, how did it come about?"

This is not a high-level meeting, nor is it an academic conference, and there are almost no scholars here, so Li Menghua is a little relaxed when he speaks, not so serious, and he brings out the problems that have been bothering him when he talks.

“...... The appearance of this near-ornithosaurus is still a mystery, and it has not yet been figured out......"

"Mr. Li, so many dinosaurs have been resurrected, and the reason has not been found?" Someone interjected and asked.

"No, all possibilities have been ruled out, and there are only some unthinkable possibilities left."

"What?" The puzzle in the eyes of scientists is a story that sounds like relish in the eyes of ordinary people, and a bunch of people look at Li Menghua with expectant eyes.

"Now all possibilities are ruled out, and there are only three possibilities left, one is that the near-ornithosaurus was resurrected, and thousands of dinosaur eggs spent 150 million years underground, unscathed, and suddenly hatched; This possibility is practically non-existent! ”

"Two, the near-bird dragon is the work of aliens, a boring alien has resurrected the near-bird dragon!"

"Third, there is a certain organization or individual, gene editing technology is at its peak, far ahead of the existing technology for decades, and the near-bird dragon is their experimental product, which is put into Xishui."

"Experimental ......" Li Menghua couldn't help repeating......
