Why snakes dont have legs......(Technical but interesting)

[Mendel's Balls]

Ever wonder why snakes dont develop legs ......well a science called "evo-devo" (evolutionary developmental biology) has come up with some answers that deal with group of genes called Hox genes.

From NCBI's Bookshelf an explanation.

A nice figure here. The pic of the developing garter snake is worth a quick visit.

Finally the following paper is available for free.

I didnt hijack a thread. I posted where snakes lost there legs at. No need for the neg rep point. And look I made it public. You could have left your name and i could have simply told you why in a PM. But no.

It was me. There it's public. You knew who was anyway

Why though? It wasnt high jacking a thread at all it was completly on topic.

Why give him a negative rep. point because he believe's in the bible and posted his opinion? I clearly do not see where he hijacked your thread.

stangs, i 100% agree with you. you didnt hijack any thread. if mendals has the right to express he believes evolution i have no idea why he thinks you can't express that you believe Creation. its very selfish of him, i think, and docking your rep points because of it is definitely not necessary.

i also agree with you that it's in the Bible.
