The cockroach is an extremely scary ability that we only know until now
With this ability, cockroaches are almost impossible to extinction.
For many people, the most terrifying creature in the world is cockroach. They are ugly, super dirty, laying a lot, but still alive. Not to mention, the cockroaches that turn "martial flying" out are sure to Vo Tong dutifully dead tiger in the old years also have to run away from slippers.
Seeing this, keep running .
The fear of cockroaches to science must also be acknowledged, once a study has suggested that if the global radiation disaster happens, the only creature that remains is the cockroach.
However, a recent experiment also showed a different ability of cockroaches that humans have been so long ago. That is: female cockroaches can reproduce on their own, rather than many years, without any males.
In particular, experts from Hokkaido University (Japan) conducted an experiment on 15 cockroaches and . whole stamps, not yet with any male cockroaches ever. This cockroach group was kept together for a period of 3 years.
They can reproduce continuously for 3 years.
If it is a male cockroach, these 15 cockroaches will fight to death. But in a whole population, the cockroaches gather and start . supporting each other to breed, helping each one produce more eggs than when they are alone.
In fact, people still know cockroaches can spawn themselves through asexual reproduction . This method of reproduction is only applicable in situations where there are no males and the risk of the extermination of the herd appears. Due to being a single gene, the next generation cockroaches will be only female cockroaches, and have a lower survival rate than normal.
A cockroach can reproduce asexually after 13.4 days without "steam".
However, the flood of cockroaches can make the herd speed of the whole population increase faster than it is strange. Normally, a cockroach can reproduce asexually after 13.4 days without " steam". But the female cockroach lays faster - it only takes 10 days.
According to experts, in a herd of only female cockroaches, they have the ability to synchronize reproduction between individuals, in order to maximize the number of cockroaches produced and optimize the survival capacity. Thereby, they will quickly occupy a new environment in large numbers.
"A flock of 15 female cockroaches can reproduce over a period of more than 3 years. In the short term, the ability to synchronize reproduction of cockroaches allows them to rapidly reach large numbers to invade a new living area. " - researchers said.
