what came first, the chicken or the egg?

[marty31672]

some people were talking about this at work and after much thought i think i found the answer
the answer is that both have to come together

just so you no, an egg has a baby chicken inside of it
also, a chicken has eggs inside the body they only lay them when the eggs are ready to

so the answer is whenever you have one you have the other so its a trick question hehe

excellent reasoning.

I have a question for you "marty"....Did you know you were gay....so you knew you would like sucking a mans penis??

Or did you suck a mans penis, and you figured you were gay because you like it so much ??

[SF1900]

Marty, I have missed you.

Where have you been?

Awesome post!

Just so I "no" huh?......

hey

HAHA. Now that's one Thanksgiving you won't forget. Good girl!

both the chicken and the egg came into existence over time, together. slow gradual changes due to environmental conditions which caused natural selection to select the organisms that became closer and closer to the chicken/egg we see today.

[BayGBM]

The egg.

[Mr. Magoo]

wasnt there a scientific article that came out a few months ago that said for sure which came first? I saw it on yahoo homepage

I think it was the chicken

[Tapeworm]

Have you ever asked your wife who came first?

is everyone else too lazy???   


The Theory of Evolution states that species change over time via mutation and selection. Since DNA can be modified only before birth, a mutation must have taken place at conception or within an egg such that an animal similar to a chicken, but not a chicken, laid the first chicken egg.[8][9] In this light, both the egg and the chicken evolved simultaneously from birds that were not chickens and did not lay chicken eggs but gradually became more and more like chickens over time.

However, a mutation in one individual is not normally considered a new species. A speciation event involves the separation of one population from its parent population, so that interbreeding ceases; this is the process whereby domesticated animals are genetically separated from their wild forebears. The whole separated group can then be recognized as a new species.

The modern chicken was believed to have descended from another closely related species of birds, the red junglefowl, but recently discovered genetic evidence suggests that the modern domestic chicken is a hybrid descendant of both the red junglefowl and the grey junglefowl.[10] Assuming the evidence bears out, a hybrid is a compelling scenario that the chicken egg, based on the second definition, came before the chicken.



i would point out that this doesnt account for the egg laying species that pre-dated the chicken, and whether it came before the egg or its egg came before it.



my original answer in this thread, that they slowly evolved together over time, is (i think) correct. no other way for complex things to come into existence within the laws of this universe.

Eggs are the orgasm of a chicken's life

see tbombz answer.

and for the record marty is a gimmic or a complete retard.

Hmm...

care to share the thoughts behind it ??
