Alex Wild“What is the function of Species X?” Is a question I hear often from non-biologists.
But it’s hard to answer. Species don’t exist to serve a function. They exist because they can. Everything is just trying to find a way to be.
AdeptVeritatisNiches need to be filled.The "entropy of evolution" takes care of it.
Matilda's Lab@AdeptVeritatis @alexwild The entropy of evolution. I love this phrase. It's so concise yet says so much. I'm definitely stealing it, just as an FYI 😂😂😂
There is a reason, we can not just let climate change run through and let humankind be eradicated with the goal of evolution taking over afterwards, which would give back power to nature.
It is a problem with entropy.
(And as long as we don't understand the Cambrian explosion, we should not play around with it.)
