Random mutations: nothing adaptive in 3 billion years
This is an open access article. Any advocate of adaptive evolution via random mutations can attempt to find evidence that I could not find by scanning it.
A “new” view of evolution sans mutations
Is there a simpler “proof” that makes those who think that random mutations cause adaptive evolution appear even more ridiculous?
Non random adaptive evolution
Changes in food availability, food type, or the way you get food can trigger evolutionary mechanisms to deal with those changes. The result can be increased brain size and cognition, changes in locomotion and even social changes
Random mutations theory and pervasive mosaic evolution (the brain)
“random” mutations in the genome are not quite so random after all.
Random mutations theory and pervasive mosaic evolution (the body)
Natural Selection and Sexual Selection must concurrently occur, which makes them non-random processes not driven by random mutations.
Epigenetic effects on chromatin and regulatation of gene expression (in Archaea?)
the bottom-up epigenetic effects of nutrient chemicals on speciation that are concurrently controlled by the top-down epigenetic effects of pheromones on reproduction challenges those who might rather attempt to-explain away the conserved molecular biology of adaptive evolution via random mutations theory
The genetics myth meets the great pheromone myth
I mention this only to note the likelihood that random mutations are not driving the disease processes — like Alzheimer’s and that proper nutrition and pheromone therapy offers hope to an aging population.
A key mutational event? That’s not very likely.
theorists argue that the 4.5 million interactive DNA switches in the human genome evolved via random mutations.
Creation vs Evolution: Expression of a newly found gene
Does anyone think that what’s reported here exemplifies an effect of a random mutation on ‘junk DNA’?
Waiting “forever” for something to happen for the “first” time
Stochastic gene expression is not random; it results from nutrient chemicals like glucose entering the cell.
