Why are there no rods in the yellow spot? Only cones
Animals evolve over millions of years, what might the ray look like many millions of years later? Could rays fly over water sometime in the distant future and, even further in the future, over land like today's birds? There is also the possibility that rays could crawl out of the water and move on land…
Certainly, you could do that if you had the corresponding construction plan. But you could not control the impulses of that person.
We’re already being alienated. A change in behaviour is observed in the infected of toxoplasma gondii. And our microbiome in the intestine also seems to have an influence on our behavior.
No. The human brain is much too complex to be foreign-scattered.
