Hunter of the Forbidden Region Chapter 138: Principle of reproduction
After staying outside this warm forest for two days, Lin Shuo and his party finally set off for the mountain forest.
Here, it is no longer part of the Altai Tawan Bogdo National Park. If you go further west for a hundred kilometers, you will enter Russia.
When Ajuna flew a helicopter back and forth, she had a bird's eye view of this forest.
According to the Mongolian female police officer, this newly formed forest area is extremely large, it should be hundreds of thousands of hectares, and it is located across the border of the four countries.
These four countries are China, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, and Russia.
This information is undoubtedly inconsistent with the previous prediction of the position of King Shan Yama, so Russia and Kazakhstan are now becoming nervous.
However, Lin Shuo can't control external affairs for the time being. What he can control now is the team currently advancing in the woods.
To be precise, he can control three of the other four on the team.
Anne, Wei Xingshan, and Zhang Jin are obedient, but the European princess Dylan is not the same.
Once involved in the professional field, this woman's absolute self-confidence to give me someone else is the same way as Lin Shuo.
She also has her reason: the more detailed the biological sampling work she is currently doing, the more data Yang Tuo has, and the quicker she can draw conclusions. This is called sharpening the knife and not cutting wood by mistake.
But this forest is heated by geothermal heat. In terms of geographical environment, it can be said that the four seasons are like spring, and the biological system is extremely complicated. There are all kinds of insects, birds, beasts, and plants.
Even if we collect only a small number of representative species, it is still very time consuming.
So while walking and waiting for Dylan to collect samples, everyone's journey on the first day was only ten miles away.
The ten-mile road was peaceful, and neither Lin Shuo's nose nor Anne's ears noticed anything abnormal.
In the evening, when everyone began to form a temporary camp to rest, the helicopter came again and took away the things Dylan had collected.
Lin Shuo cared about Xiaoba's situation, asked Anne for a satellite phone, and called Yang Tuo.
"How about Xiaoba?" Lin Shuo asked straightforwardly without talking nonsense.
"I also asked for it myself, so I invited an ancestor back," Yang Tuo's voice was rather helpless, "I can't talk about it, but I can't bear it. I have not dealt with any animals in the laboratory in my entire life. There are thousands of Wanwan, and I need to ask in a low voice. Your bird is the number one bird."
"Where is it now?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Enough noisy here. I am taking a group of hens for a walk in the yard. The **** that was originally the leader has become its younger brother." Yang Tuo said, "Fortunately, this breed is reproductively isolated from chickens. Otherwise these hens will lay eggs, should I eat them or not?"
Lin Shuo nodded after hearing that, this is his own bird, yes, and then asked: "Are there any results?"
"I begged it for an hour just to draw the tube of blood." Yang Tuo said, "Where can there be results so quickly?"
"You are sending raincoats and iodine tablets to me. That posture is like a reminder. You are not in a hurry, right?"
"Someone came in from outside, I just wanted to give you a copy." Yang Tuo smiled, "Be fair, don't just worry about us here."
"I can go to you." Lin Shuo scolded.
"Don't get me wrong, it really didn't mean that." Yang Tuo said over the phone, "But now that Xiao Ba has something wrong, then I am relieved. This thing should be no way for people, otherwise you should. Lost connection."
"Well, this is the truth."
"By the way, I can tell you the good news. The principle of reproduction of this thing is already somewhat eye-catching at the International Biological Research Association." Yang Tuo said, "You can open a hands-free and let them listen to it."
Lin Shuo moved a little in his heart and hurriedly followed suit.
……
Geneva, in the conference room of the International Society for Biological Research, there is a huge display in the center with a map of the world on it.
On this overall white map of the world, there are more than 30 areas of different sizes, marked in different colors.
Among them, blue is the most, with more than 20 pieces, a few pieces of yellow, and two pieces of red.
These color blocks are constantly flashing, which means that these marked areas are encountering biological events of different levels of danger on a global scale.
The blue color is a third-level biological event, which is not very harmful. Generally speaking, the local government can solve the problem, and the International Association of Biology and Biology only needs to provide technical assistance.
Yellow represents a secondary biological event. If the local government handles this level of bizarre creatures according to conventional methods, the casualties will be very large, and the International Society for Biological Research will often need to send special operations teams.
Red, represents a first-level biological event. The culprit is suspected to be A-level or strange creatures above A-level. Whether it is the local government or the biological research society, it is very difficult to deal with it, and more professional people need to be entrusted. , Such as the Six Masters of Hunting Gate in China.
Two months ago, the Waixing'an Mountains on the north coast of Heilongjiang flashed this red.
And now, in addition to the red, yellow, and blue colors that are flashing on this world map, there is also a striking orange.
Orange alarms, in the past few decades after the establishment of the International Biological Research Association, there were only two.
The last time was seven years ago in Sichuan, China.
One more time, it's now.
The Altai Mountains in Asia are shrouded in orange.
This kind of frightening color means that the super-biological event has a global hazard and is characterized as "affecting the global ecology and endangering the survival of all mankind."
Superior biological events, the processing priority is above all else, this is a resolution passed by the United Nations legislation.
So all the people on the venue are all in the Altai Mountains.
On the side of this world map, there is a slightly smaller screen.
This screen is directly connected to satellite signals, and the data is constantly being updated.
The provider of these data is a biologist from China, Yang Tuo.
In the past few days, the atmosphere in this venue in Geneva has been very depressing.
The orange on the world map is like a sword of Damocles hanging over the head.
The cloud of nuclear strikes not only looms over the Altai Mountains, but also looms over the hearts of these biologists.
The nuclear strike is the most complete destruction of the ecosystem. At the same time, it also declared the complete failure of human biology in this event.
If they don’t make much progress these days, nuclear strikes will inevitably come on this land.
This not only means that all the creatures on this land are about to disappear, but even the surrounding areas will suffer from it for hundreds of years to come.
They must use their life-long knowledge reserves and professional achievements to race against the **** of death shrouded in the Altai Mountains.
There is no time to sleep, and eating is just a hassle. These highly respected authorities in their respective universities or research institutes have become unkempt and irritable in a few days.
Their teams of assistants in various countries have also flown over temporarily from all over the world, and they have joined this battle without gunpowder.
The International Biology Research Association takes the lead with seven of the nine elders, and uses two steps to fight this tough battle.
The first step is to subcontract the two genes of Mountain Yama by way of fragment interception and subcontract them to teams from various countries to crack them.
This is a step that challenges the limits of human biology.
The double helix structure of genes itself contains a lot of information, many of which have no specific expression meaning, and humans have not yet figured out the meaning of some expression.
The expression of many traits is formed by multiple expressions, and the mechanism is very complicated.
Don't talk about the brand-new species of Yama Yama, even if it is the genes of human beings, it has been deciphered since 1990, and now it has only completed the sketch construction, barely knowing the outline.
The genes of other species, as well as biology teams around the world, can only have their own strengths.
That is, the elders of the International Biological Research Association, know what the teams of various countries are good at, so that they can allocate tasks as reasonably as possible.
In this step, people alone are not enough. A supercomputer is also needed.
In the previous three days, supercomputers all over the world were running this project.
Followingly, on the basis of clarifying the shape and expression of Yama Yama's gene, the most experienced biological authorities will describe the functions of the major organs of Yama Yama.
The key target is the reproductive system of King Shan Yama.
Because this is related to the spreading method of the mountain Yama, and it also determines the upper limit of its harm.
This description is based on a large number of assumptions because of the imperfections in the genetic deciphering process.
No one knows whether it is reliable or not.
But now that the world's ears only believe these mouths.
In the early hours of this morning, He Zihong and his team, after three consecutive days of sleeplessness, finally took the lead in describing the principle of the reproductive system of King Shan Yan.
The old man spent a full two hours on the podium in Geneva, persuading other teams with different opinions, and was almost exhausted in the end.
Finally, the opinions are unified.
Biologists from various countries shook hands, hugged, and even cried.
The orange area was downgraded to red as a result.
……
In the depths of the Altai Mountains, Yang Tuo on the other end of the phone thought for a while, organized the language, and slowly said: "This mountain Hades is actually a symbiosis of two living things.
One of these two organisms is a fern with a relatively stable shape, and the other is a crustacean with a small size and extremely active variation of its own.
The plant genes have been figured out, and the rest is the same. The strongest is the spores of this fern, which spreads in a very wide range and is a very good gene carrier.
The gene of the animal body has not been completely deciphered, but the principle of the reproduction part is roughly understood. That is, before its body dies, it will attach its own genetic genes to the spores of the plant body to carry out large-scale transfer.
It is more surprising that its genetic information can contain the experience of the previous generation, which is why it has a large amount of genetic information. "
"Can genetic genes contain previous experiences? Is this possible?" Wei Xingshan's eyes widened as he listened, "Doesn't it mean that you will have memories when you are born?"
"Of course it is possible." Yang Tuo said. "In fact, this situation is not unique in nature. Even our human genes have similar functions.
For example, when the parents have been hungry, the children will have a high probability of getting wealthy when they grow up.
This is a kind of self-adjustment of genetic genes to the nutritional environment, allowing offspring to survive in an environment with very little food.
Once the society changes, food suddenly becomes abundant, and the human body can no longer adapt to it. That's why there are all kinds of affluence diseases such as high blood pressure.
Of course, this is different from memory inheritance. To what extent this creature can do it is still unclear to us.
But the principle is here, and many things can be explained. "
Speaking of this, Yang Tuo paused and continued:
"As a species with extremely high mutation activity, the animal body of Yama Yama will naturally inherit the advantages of the previous generation, so as to continue to iterate.
It can be like this, with such a large variation in reproduction and transmitting so much information, it will inevitably consume a lot of energy.
The energy that nature can take in is always limited.
Because of the limited energy intake in nature, it is impossible for organisms to be proficient in everything, and will have their own evolutionary emphasis, resulting in different characteristics and advantages.
For example, we humans, the brain is the body's most energy-consuming organ, which makes us the most intelligent species in the world.
The evolution of the Yamayama King focuses on reproduction.
Its reproduction is actually a self-replicating asexual reproduction, which conveys far more information than other species. This is not only its unique advantage, but also a great burden.
So every time it reproduces, it can only be singleton, which also explains why its number is so scarce. "
Lin Shuo asked: "But how about Xiaoba's situation?"
"I don't know this yet. Let's check it out in the field of biology first." Yang Tuo said, "But Lao Lin, to tell you the truth, I don't think the possibility is high to find the answer in this field.
Mind control is an area that is currently inaccessible to our human sciences.
Actually, we can change our mindset and want to cure Xiaoba. The key is not with me, but with you. "
"Oh?"
"Since Xiao Ba is currently suspected of being controlled by King Mountain Yama, we don't have to worry about how King Mountain Yama controlled it. You just kill King Mountain Yama, isn't it all right?" Yang Tuo said.
"The truth is correct, but what if Xiao Ba is infected and will become the next generation of Yama Hades?" Lin Shuo asked ~IndoMTL.com~ that would be easier to handle. This is the field of biology, we still It can be done. "Yang Tuo said confidently, and then his tone sank again:
"But Lao Lin, you have to hurry up.
According to Xiao Ba, what Shan Yan Wang is currently doing has obvious intentions.
It organizes a forest to maximize the use of resources. As the highest level of the food chain, energy intake is naturally more efficient than before.
Developed in its current form, it used to be singleton reproduction, but it won’t be easy to say in the future.
At that time, countless spores that are imperceptible to the naked eye are scattered, and each spore is a mountain king, then it is really invincible.
So, get rid of this thing sooner rather than later. "
"Yes." Lin Shuo said, "I need a few things, you can prepare them."
"Okay, please speak"
