People can 'grow' propellers and cat eyes in the future

These are human traits that can evolve to deal with climate change in the future.

Climate change is currently causing the polar ice sheets to melt rapidly, leading to rising sea levels.

Currently many islands, lands, and territories are at risk of being submerged in the sea. And according to scientists, the risk of the Earth turning into . "Fruit" is entirely possible in the future.

If that happens, people need to change some physical characteristics to adapt. And Dr. Matthew Skinner, physicist - anthropologist at Kent University (Australia) - has predicted 3 scenarios of humanity can evolve in the future.

People will evolve to suit life.

Dr. Skinner said that some changes, such as a foot- like foot, are like a propeller, and a hand that is wide open . can appear to help people move easily in the water.

This is entirely possible, even in the near future because some people now have this gene available.

In the future, will people have membranes of hands and feet like ducks?

However, we will not have the characteristics that help people live in the strictest conditions. In order to get them, they will need about . a few hundred generations of natural selection, or need of human technology.

Skinner also thinks that we will have cat-like eyes to meet the lack of light when observing underwater. The fat layer available from birth is retained, rather than lost as an adult.

In addition, having to feed in the water can make humans create artificial gills - filtering oxygen in water and pumping it straight into the bloodstream. This will cause the lung size to decrease, and the ribs shrink.

. and other perspectives .

In addition, Skinner believes there is another perspective - the next Ice Age appears to have meteorite collisions with the Earth.

In this case, the color of human skin will become pale , to increase the ability to synthesize vitamin D in the absence of light. Body hair will thicken, and muscles will grow significantly, because muscle strength is important in the absence of technology and materials.

The nose and face will grow to warm the cold air before entering the throat. And such traits will appear in both men and women.

The face is big, the skin is pale when the ice age comes.

And yet, there is also the possibility that humans can settle on another planet . At this point, the body characteristics will change to adapt to a low gravity environment.

The most likely possibility is that our hands grow longer, while the legs are shorter , because when moving in a low gravity environment, the arms and legs should be equal. Just like the case of monkeys - often moving on trees instead of walking.

The face also became smaller , but the teeth . were gone. The jaw will be smaller, so will the mouth - shrinking by the size of the straw because low gravity will make chewing difficult.

The face also became smaller.

In addition, the lack of an enemy in nature makes the body size smaller. Just like on Earth - when animals are isolated on an island, lack of necessary fuel and no predators, their size will gradually diminish through each generation.
