Aliens hold mating secrets of all species?

On Earth, mating activity is essential for the survival of many life forms. However, elsewhere in the universe, that activity may not exist. Therefore, finding aliens will help us answer one of the biggest secrets about life, according to a biologist who evolved the British reputation.

In a recent interview, Richard Dawkins, England's famous evolutionary and biological specialist, explained that our need for sex is one of the toughest questions yet. answers about evolution. According to him, the sex needs of sex between the sexes are relatively "difficult to understand" and finding alien life may be the key to explaining why we are male and female or male and female. , instead of a series of different sexes.

Speaking on the sidelines of the Starmus festival taking place in Tenerife, England, an annual event brings together many leading experts in the fields of cosmology, science and astronomy, to attend and lecture, Mr. Dawkins declared. Dad: "Does sex exist in an extraterrestrial world? I suppose it could not . Mating activity is less likely to be common among different life forms, but the discovery of life beyond The Earth can teach us the principles of evolution. "

To explain our point, Mr. Dawkins takes the example of asexual reproduction (not through the mating of male and female) on our own planet. The expert said: "If you look at the genealogical tree's genealogy, you will see, fertility seems to flourish, except for one exception, there is no vital animal branch. In which all members of the branch reproduce asexually, this fact implies that asexual reproduction may prevail for a short period of evolution, but then it will eventually disappear. can be a very remarkable fact ".

In his speech at the Starmus festival, Mr. Dawkins mentioned the classification of alien life and how we might hope aliens look like. He wondered whether the evolution of certain animals on Earth was random or followed a path similar to any alien life.

In particular, Mr. Dawkins presented his views on how body parts, such as the eyes, in a world where light is abundant, are more likely to evolve in a similar way. And even things like religion, when society develops, will be similarities between humans and an intelligent alien race.

"I think it is perfectly reasonable if any alien life is following the path of technology development that is accessible to us, may also be in the early stages of groping in the dark. when they acquired the truths such as Newton's law or Einstein's theory of gravitation, which were universal, they could also experience a period of vague groping , " Mr. Dawkins emphasized.

Mr. Dawkins wants biologists to begin to consider what other extraterrestrial life forms might be, in case we discover humans are not alone in the universe. The expert said that if there were billions of different life forms in the universe, they could be so far apart in space that they would never meet or communicate with each other, and if there was any contact. Directly face that through radio waves.
