Because you do not lose a genetic trait!
Your physiology is the genetic design, weak legs, two legs, slow movement.
Slow animals are slaughtered by lions, hyenas, and every other predator.
Have some integrity - you equated rock 'cells' to the cells that are part of the criteria for life when you said, "by those conditions, a rock is alive." This is a clear fallacy of equivocation.I did not say that. I only say rock has cell. Don't think too much.
Get used to that.Juvenissum what are you talking about . That makes absolutely no sense
If you could expand on the vitamin C aspect of your claim, then I can reply?We LOST the trait to catabolise ascorbic acid.
I showed you what you said couldn’t happen had happened.
It would be nice if you had the good grace to acknowledge that.
-_- no one in their right mind would think that two people could independently write 30 identical pages of text by chance.You are brainwashed in the style of thinking. Your example could also indicate:
Shakespeare's book --> Has Shakespeare's pages
Harry Potter book --> Has Harry Potter's pages
The third book --> (of course) Has both types of pages.
Noticed that the arrows are going toward right, not toward left. The third book may NOT be the mixture of the other two.
We are talking about navigation across oceans and land, not finding your way through a maze. These are very different environments.You’ve never seen turtles drowned because they have got lost in submerged tunnels?
Then I would assume, that you have likewise do not have a fixed viewpoint on this topic.Then you have no business on a debate forum on this topic.
You have made up your mind and by your own admission, nothing will every convince you of being wrong - not even if you are indeed wrong.
This means that you have taken up the intellectually dishonest position of accepting unquestionable dogma.
So any "debate" with you on the topic, is an exercise in futily and a waste of time.
You also said, "A rock cell has similar function to a biological cell." This too is false - and, I suspect, deliberately disingenuous.
In terms of predators, Africa is a far more dangerous environment for humans, than south America. I would expect the expansion of human settlement in Africa, to be very slow.Euh.... how do you think humans survived and hunted during prehistoric times??
First, we no longer live "in the wild".
Second, we would manage just fine (as a species). Go see some tibes in africa, latin america, etc... they live in jungles surrounded by dangerous predators and nasty insects.
They survive, don't they?
Humans need to ingest ascorbic acid. We cannot synthesise it due to a mutation in the GULO gene. Normally GULO is an enzyme that catalyses the reaction of D-glucuronolactone with oxygen to L-xylo-hex-3-gulonolactone. Our non human primate ancestors lost the ability to do so about 61 million years ago.If you could expand on the vitamin C aspect of your claim, then I can reply?
Your saying you can’t navigate by the sun, the stars, the moon or geography?This comment of yours is pointless.

Is inactive DNA a lost trait or is inactive DNA a dormant trait?Chickens have inactive DNA to build teeth. Their ancestors used to have teeth.
Moles have non-functioning eyes hidden away behind a layer of skin. Their ancestors lived above ground and had a use for eyes. Today's moles don't.
Species lose (and gain) traits all the time.
I am claiming that human navigation is the result of conscious mental thought processes.Your saying you can’t navigate by the sun, the stars, the moon or geography?
That’s weird: I can.

Is this inability to ingest ascorbic acid indemic in all omnivores?Humans need to ingest ascorbic acid. We cannot synthesise it due to a mutation in the GULO gene. Normally GULO is an enzyme that catalyses the reaction of D-glucuronolactone with oxygen to L-xylo-hex-3-gulonolactone.

This is undergraduate biology stuff. If you don’t have at least some understanding of it you’re not really in a good position to debate it.
