Species change over time in the process of evolution. Since DNA can only be modified before birth, a mutation must have taken place at conception or within an egg such that an animal similar to a chicken, but not a chicken laid the first chicken egg. However, a mutation in one individual is not normally considered a new species. A speciation event involves the separation of one population from its parent population, so that interbreeding ceases; this is the process whereby domesticated animals are genetically separated from their wild forebears. The whole separated group can then be recognized as a new species.god made all animals on the ark so chicken came first....remember im just bored,lol ![]() ![]() ![]() The modern chicken was believed to have descended from another closely related species of birds, the red junglefowl, but recently discovered genetic evidence suggests that the modern domestic chicken is a hybrid descendant of both the red junglefowl and the grey junglefowl. Assuming the evidence bears out, a hybrid is a compelling scenario that the egg came before the chicken. HOPE THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION! |

It doesn't always land butter-side down, but experiments (e.g. on MythBusters) have shown that it does so more often than not.
The reason is that the dimensions/mass/aerodynamics of a typical bread slice and the height of a typical dining table are such that a bread slice will tend to do a half-flip as it falls from the edge of the table to the floor. Since most people put their toast on the table butter-side up, this tends to be the down-facing side once it falls of the table. MythBusters also dropped buttered toast from a much greater height (20+ feet?) and found that the results were essentially random. If you are good at Math....check this out.. http://www.geocities.com/Omegaman_UK/bread.html |
