The assessment of phylogenetic relationships that link the creation of sunlight and water to oxygen and microRNA biogenesis resolves all the pseudoscientific nonsense touted about the branches across the tree of life. Every so-called branch is exquisitely tuned into existence. The idea of random mutations has been eliminated from discussion among serious scientists.

…the most frequent communications we receive have been along the lines of “I agree with you, but can’t speak up publicly for fear of losing my grants, alienating powerful people, or upsetting my dean.”
Historical perspective
The dean wanted me to declare a major before I could enroll for the next semester. In the late 1970s, I upset the dean of the biology department at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) by commenting on the project that contributed to 25% of the grade in my Genetics course. I claimed that the requirement to cut and paste chromosomes was best suited to an elementary school curriculum. I found out that he designed that project.
From the early 1980s to the early 1990s, I learned that foraging for food required food energy-dependent pheromone-controlled biophysical constraints on transgenerational epigenetic inheritance. Bruce McEwen and the late Robert L. Moss inspired me to publish a book in 1995 with co-author Robert T. Franoeur. The scent of eros: mysteries of odor in human sexuality.
Five years later, Elekonich and Robinson published: Organizational and activational effects of hormones on insect behavior (2000). They cited our 1996 review From Fertilization to Adult Sexual Behavior. Elekonich moved to UNLV, and moved science forward with publication of Honey bees as a model for understanding mechanisms of life history transitions (2005).
See also: Elekonich MM[Author] I wonder how far others have come who pursued a degree in biology at UNLV despite the dean’s cut and paste requirement. I dropped out.
For comparison, see: Effects of flight activity and age on oxidative damage in the honey bee, Apis mellifera (2018)
The delayed scientific progress cannot be attributed to anyone outside academia, which means the unnecessary suffering and premature death caused by biologically uninformed theorists can be attributed to academics who became “cut and paste” theorists. What’s missing from their gene-centric theories of mutation-driven evolution?
See: Mutagenesis of orco impairs foraging but not oviposition in the hawkmoth Manduca sexta (2/5/19)
Overall, OR-mediated olfaction is essential for foraging and pollination behaviors, but plant-seeking and oviposition behaviors appear largely unaffected.
SARCASM ALERT: I claim that plant-seeking and oviposition behavior did not automagically evolve in species that starved to death before they mutated and became a new species.
They cite Nakagawa T, Pellegrino M, Sato K, Vosshall LB, Touhara K (2012) Amino Acid Residues Contributing to Function of the Heteromeric Insect Olfactory Receptor Complex, and note that an insertion/deletion, called an Indel
“… generated a frameshift mutation introducing two stop codons downstream, giving rise to a truncated 72 residue protein, indicated through the predicted amino acid sequence.
The claim that the indel generated the mutation led to this announcement:
The #preprint is out! First demonstration of germ linè cell transformation in the hawkmoth Manduca sexta. Using reverse genetics to understand the sensory basis of a natural behavior between an insect and a plant.
LB Vosshall’s comment: ORCO MUTANT MOTH Y’ALL!! Mutagenesis of orco impairs foraging but not oviposition in the hawkmoth Manduca sexta
What does that mean to a serious scientist?
No one could be more disgusted by the fact that Precision medicine’s rosy predictions haven’t come true. But no serious scientists think We need fewer promises and more debate (2/7/19)
All serious scientists will continue to take the only logical approach.
Some may claim that energy emerged from nothing and link the energy to the creation of biomolecules.
For example: The Dynamical Emergence of Biology From Physics: Branching Causation via Biomolecules
Others will link the light-activated energy-dependent assembly of the peptide nucleic acid-microRNA nanocomplex to the dual modulation of cancer-related microRNAs and the cure for all diseases. That is what Accelerated Evolution Biotechnologies has already done. The fact that they are so far ahead of other cancer researchers make the others very angry.
For example Dr. Darren Saunders, a cancer biologist at the University of New South Wales, Australia, tweeted the researchers were “selling unicorns.”

See for comparison: RNA editing in plants: A comprehensive survey of bioinformatics tools and databases
RNA editing is a widespread epitranscriptomic mechanism by which primary RNAs are specifically modified through insertions/deletions or nucleotide substitutions. In plants, RNA editing occurs in organelles (plastids and mitochondria), involves the cytosine to uridine modification (rarely uridine to cytosine) within protein-coding and non-protein-coding regions of RNAs and affects organelle biogenesis, adaptation to environmental changes and signal transduction.
This is another example of what ages 10+ can learn about light-activated links from the creation of subatomic particles to cytosis and biophysically constrained viral latency. See: Subatomic and Cytosis
The authors of RNA editing in plants: A comprehensive survey of bioinformatics tools and databases claim that RNA editing in plant organelles is a “…fascinating but yet under investigated process.”

James V. Kohl detailedl how quantized energy-dependent microRNA biogenesis links the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction to biophysically constrained viral latency and healthy longevity. Links from what organisms eat to the enzyme-dependent metabolism of food also link metabolic networks to microRNA-mediated genetic networks in the context of RNA interference. Drug therapies alter RNA interference by altering cell type differentiation in all cells of all individuals of all species. For comparison, during the past 26 years, Kohl has detailed how the chemistry of protein folding is biophysically constrained at every level of biological organization by conserved molecular mechanisms.
