Re: Please define macroevolution first.

And you still have not provided a definition of 'macro-evolution'.

Re: so can you define macroevolution or not?

idscience writes:

macro evolution has to be able to produce novel morphology.

Most creationists think that macro-evolution is the production of novel morphology.
But that would mean that you are saying:

quote:
The production of novel morphology (macro-evolution) has to be able to produce novel morphology.

...which would be a pointless thing to say.

flagellum motor? How does macro-E build these systems one piece at a time if they are blind to selection until they are built and working?

What do you think macro-evolution is?
Provide a definition and then we can answer your questions.

Re: Is it a duck or what?

Philo writes:

Is this an example of macro or micro-evolution? Or just the creator with some sense of humor.

It is an example of a monotreme.

Philo writes:

Say a dog grows a beak is it just a dog with a micro-evolved beak or a new species?

Neither.
It would be an example of a massive mutation that would probably result in the premature death of that dog.

Philo writes:

How about mice that start from the same family but grow apart in to two different species of mice that can't reproduce with each other. Is this micro or macro evolution?

It is both.
