Mutations

I can echolocate.Not as well as some bats and some aquatic mammals, to be sure, but I can do it nonetheless. In fact, we do it all the time. Say you are outside and someone calls your name. What do you do? And how do you do it?By the way, those 'quaestions' look awfully familiar. Do you know Karl Crawford?

Ah, the typically enlightening post by Karl. Evolution doesn't happen? Correct me if I am wrong, but you do believe that a horse and a zebra share a common ancestor, do you not? How about a chihuahua and a wolf? A leopard and a lynx? If not, then they were all on the Ark together. If you agree that they do share a common ancestor, then you believe in evolution. Which is it?

Not to mention the 950+ species of bat in more than a dozen genera in more than one family...

So what are the odds of a RANDOM mutation effecting a particular DNA strand in the first place? Then to do it again and and again..by chance?

Ah - silly me. I should have read this before posting my question.Some questions for karl - questions which have been asked several times before (not just by me), but which have gone unanswered.What is a "DNA strand" as you are using it?Why MUST these mutations occur "over and over again in the same DNA strand responsible for the body part or system"?Your last paragraph belies your shallow understanding of development and genetics. Maybe you should be asking questions insteqad of making these multi-year-old proclamations over and over again.Percy - I have tried to use my old password/ID and I kept getting error messages, so I re-registered. I explained this in another thread a few weeks ago.
