Chapter 89: Finding the Bones
Hearing this, Nanyin was so stimulated that she almost jumped up.
God's special human beings like to be watched by tigers, and they also like to compete with tigers for meat to eat, and they are not disgusted with life.
"Absolutely not."
She retorted loudly, feeling that their inheritance memories were a bit pitfall.
"When your ancestors were in captivity, there was no shortage of meat for human beings to eat."
Honghong thought thoughtfully, "In other words, you humans will eat us when they are short of meat to eat." ”
Nanyin is so weak, if you continue to talk according to the thinking pattern, you have to fight.
"It's too much to think about, now humans are richer and there is no shortage of food."
With a population of almost 10 billion, trade channels have been opened with the regimes of various civilizations, and the human beings of Huameng no longer have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation.
"And what are you doing here?"
"Roots!"
Nanyin concisely explained the purpose of the human race to the home planet, and they suddenly realized when they heard it.
I see, tsk, human beings are so pitiful, they have lost their ancestors.
"If I were your ancestors, I would have gotten up from the ground and strangled you."
Duoduo was vicious, the corners of Nanyin's mouth twitched, and his heart said that you are not the ancestor of mankind.
A group of tigers had a small talk about whether they had a match or not, and they also fed the tiger cubs halfway.
Breast milk and milk fruit are served together.
As soon as the feed was finished, Brother Tiger returned with a few large male tigers on behalf of the tiger pack and told her that they had agreed to do genetic testing.
Nanyin didn't expect things to go so smoothly, so she asked the reason curiously.
As a result, I learned that many of the tiger cubs born in these years were born with frailty, and some died within a few days of birth.
There are people who live for more than seven months and suddenly die and the like.
It doesn't look like a big deal, but when you add up the number of these dead tiger cubs, it becomes an extremely terrifying number.
In just five years, the number of tiger cubs that died reached a staggering 300.
An average of 60 a year.
It's definitely a genetic problem.
Therefore, Nanyin was not ambiguous, and directly took out the portable treatment device and began to examine their bodies one by one and do genetic testing.
There are many tigers living in the mountains, and the entire genetic testing lasted for five full days before it was completed.
Then, Nanyin and Nange, who came back with the nanny robot, and Yin Jing, who was pulled by him to do foreign aid from the medical profession, turned over and counted all the genetic test reports of the South China Tiger.
After all the statistics were finished, Nanyin and Nange looked at Yin Jing in unison.
"See what?"
Nanyin is good at traditional Chinese medicine, and Western medicine is also good at it, but he doesn't know much about medical knowledge in the interstellar era.
Feeling her burning gaze, Yin Jing, who was staring at the holographic screen and studying the genetic map of Tiger Brother, pushed the glasses used for decoration on the bridge of his nose, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity.
"I don't have the original version of the genetic map for reference, and I'm not sure about it."
"But judging from my medical knowledge, there is a high probability that the gene sequence of Brother Tiger is a little biased."
“??? Can it be corrected? ”
Nange's words were astonishing, and when Nanyin and Yin Jing heard this, the silence was deafening.
Can this thing be corrected?
It's not a mistake, just change it.
Deviations in gene sequences can be big or small.
The genes of all carbonyl life and organisms are made up of DNA, but the gene sequences vary from species to species.
These differences vary from one base to another, including, but not limited to, variations in bases, insertions or deletions of genes, or changes in the structure and order of genes.
It is also the difference in gene sequences that makes genetic diversity emerge between species.
Genes, like the brain, are the most mysterious beings.
"It's a little hard!"
Yin Jing twisted his brows and flipped through the genetic map of the tiger brothers, "The most important thing is that we don't have a genetic map sample of the original South China tiger. ”
Nanyin thought for a moment, "Is it possible to solve it with a primitive gene map?" ”
"There's no guarantee that it will be solved, but you can try."
That is to say, there is hope.
Nanyin, who understood what he meant, curled her lips and smiled, "Wait, I'll go find you a genetic map." ”
Without waiting for Yin Jing to reply, she turned her head and pulled Brother Tiger to ask about the remains of its kind.
Yin Jing and Nange, who were still shocked by her search for a genetic map one second, were stunned by her question the next second.
actually started the idea of tiger remains, I have to say that Nanyin is very thoughtful.
If they can find it, the dilemma they face can be solved.
The problem is that –
Will it work?!
Huge doubts and unknown expectations rose in the hearts of the two.
Nanyin is also quite apprehensive now, she is really not sure that Brother Tiger has the existence of tiger remains.
As a result, Brother Hu's answer made her overjoyed.
It says, "Yes! ”
A smile bloomed on Nanyin's face, and Brother Hu, who felt her pleasant breath, looked at her gaze and suddenly became weird.
"Tell me honestly, what do you want the remains of a tiger for?"
Is it difficult to take it and eat it?
It's not delicious, it's all bones, and you can't even gnaw it.
Nanyin, who didn't know what it was thinking, explained, "Bones can extract DNA. ”
"There's a chance that your genetic problems will be solved."
Brother Tiger doesn't understand DNA, but he understands the meaning of the latter sentence.
In an instant, my eyes lit up.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the bones."
"Okay."
Then, Nanyin followed Brother Tiger to pick up the tiger's bones.
As for Nange, after so many days of getting along, he has become acquainted with Duoduo.
Although they can't love each other because they can't communicate, it's okay to be safe.
Therefore, Nanyin and they are very relieved.
Five hours later, they returned with the extracted genetic map.
These genetic maps are from the remains of tigers in tiger pits, which range in time of death from recent to 70 years ago.
Most of the remains are damaged, and many are intact.
It's just that this search process is a bit time-consuming.
Fortunately, the hard work was not in vain, and the result was good.
Through the comparison of these genetic maps, Yin Jing concluded that the genetic sequences of the tiger brothers were deviated in the past fifteen years.
It wasn't obvious at first, so the infant mortality rate of tiger cubs ten years ago was normal.
It wasn't until the last five years that the mortality rate began to rise steadily because of deviations in gene sequences.
As for why the genetic sequence is biased, Yin Jing thought for a while and said, "There are two possible ......"
Nanyin, they immediately listened to it.
"One: they are in a state of evolution."
Nanyin and Nange looked at each other, and Brother Tiger looked dazed.
"Two: This mountain range is not suitable for them to continue to survive due to environmental and climatic reasons, and the change in the genetic sequence is a reminder, or it can be said to urge them to get out of here quickly."
"But ......"
As soon as this came out, Nanyin and Nange raised their hearts.
"Don't sell it."
