"Mimickers"

"The natural inheritance expressed via mimickers"

The wonderful prospect of life is to live in an unique, unpredictable and irreplaceable manner, in all of history and of future time. Can a child, born as a male, grown into a man, turn into a female?? or vice versa??The unraveled mystery has reached its destination with scientists relating the fact not only to body composition but also the influence of external environment. The research is an ongoing project.

True in the case of White Sucker fish-
Calostomuscommersone. Scientists in Colorado have found that the male sucker fish develops female sex organs as a result of hermaphrodism. This happens when two male fishes meet at a place. The reason behind the change in composition is due to the presence of estrogen mimickers in water bodies. Estrogen is a natural female hormone found in every sewer system. It should be noted that certain chemical compounds in detergents and soaps can mimick estrogen. Too much of estrogen present in the body, may give rise to female sex organs irrespective of the natural sex of the organism, when it was born. Estrogen mimickers caused by chemicals are called Nonylphenols and are found in everything right from paints and rubber to cosmetics and plastics.

Another class of organisms called Nudibranchs (snails without shells) are found to be true hermaphrodites. These sea slugs are called so because they exhibit "Successive Hemaphrodism" (i.e) fish that change sex completely.

Thus the natural phenomenon of hermophrodism is brought about by estrogen mimickers in this case. Can this be called as "natural combined synthetic inheritance"?? Remains to be a thought buster!!

science has always baffled human in every field, imagine the chance a female dog has, she can spew the sperm out if she is not happy with him, and none of her pups will get his coloring, vow, if woman had that, don't you think the rapers will never get the satisfaction of making a any unwed mother?? sunkan

Dear Sunkan ji!!

My heart felt regards and thanks for having visited my blog and having spent time to leave your valuable comments!

Absolutely true. But science is man-made and it emulates nature. I feel so!

You have thrown light on an entirely interesting and thought provoking concept. Truly speaking, it did not strike me at all! Rightly said!!

Let me ponder on the same and get back!!

Dear RV,
Half of Science is man's ( i should say humans) attempt to understand and unveil nature's secrets. This is where discoveries fall into and what you have posted is a discovery. The other half is inventions which are a product of an attempt by humans to make full use of the gift nature gave them (i.e brain\intelligence).

Your post in part explains to me the possible cause of transgenders\tranvestites in humans.

If the humans evolve \ learn to master their brain, what Sunkan said might be true in the near/far future.

Dear Blondie ma'am,
Thank you for peeping in. Absolutely true are your words. Science tries to unravel nature's mysteries. And if we try to unravel the mysteries hidden within our own selves, mankind will evolve into a new generation of "race" that really can be attached with the tag of "humane nature" and the original "sixth sensed".
