Please explain. (This is actually sort of true though. Sorta like bat and flying mammal legs aren’t so great for running, but the membranes between their crazily long fingers make a decent - but not perfect - wing.)
OK
I believe Darwin’s theory on natural selection goes something like this: A beneficial genetic mutation, which increases the chances of survival, is kept in the DNA and passed on. A genetic mutation that was not beneficial would lessen the chances of survival thereby increasing the possibility the non-beneficial DNA mutation was not passd along.
A species in transistion to another species, such as dinosaur to bird, would have to have incremental changes made to it’s DNA to transform the leg into a wing. I am saying the leg would become a non-beneficial genetic change during it’s transition long before it became a beneficial genetic change, a wing.
These are my thoughts. I am open to intelligent arguments disputing my thoughts. It will give me reason to study further.
