@@muath1401 all dogs can interbreed with wolves. A girl I know adopted a wolf-dog hybrid (they are really weird and big). dogs and wolves are still basically the same animal. And also just looking at modern birds like the emu and cassowary makes it pretty obvious that raptors did not go extinct. there are genes in normal chickens(as well as all other birds) that go unused for developing teeth. There are even fossils of a raptor called Archaeopteryx that had a raptor head with teeth, no beak, yet had feathers and could fly using its wings it also had a uniquely bird like ankle structure. And there are no known bird fossils that are older than when archaeopteryx lived. Yet there are many more bird like fossils dated after that point. The people who study this stuff don't debat it.

It was estimated at over a 100 years old. It is estimated that some whales can live as much as two hundred years and that there are whales swimming the oceans today that remember their friends and family members being hunted by New Bedford whalers. It may even be possible that whales that Herman Melville wrote about are still alive. One whale was recently found with a harpoon in it that was manufactured over two hundred years ago that nobody has used for over 150 years

Eventually the lobster would get so big that gravity and the physical limitations of its own chemistry would prevent it from moving and it would die. It's limbs would be too heavy to move. The material of its body would not be sturdy enough to sustain itself. It's limbs would twist and bend under its own weight, then eventually break. From there it would be too heavy and cumbersome to move itself. It'd be a lump of tissue and nerves. You could hardly call it a lobster anymore.

That adds up to about 4.2 quintillion DNA damage events. Your cells have specialised enzymes in at least 10 different pathways that fix >99.99999% this damage. We already have telomerase in our cells too, well, specifically in our stem cells and in telomerase-positive cancers (about 85% of all cancers).

Bret Weinstein (I think) discovered that lab mice have abnormally long telomeres. This explains why all the medicine they test on mice doesn't kill them but does kill us. Science is to proud to admit that big of a blunder tho so I doubt it will change.

Telomers. Also science isn't some single person in a room who outsmarts you out of spite. It's a word to describe a body of knowledge gained via the scientific method. Must've been a funny man or woman who made you bitter about smart people.

Actually, telomerase exists in adult human beings too, particularly in certain forms of stem cells as well as in tissues that are regularly regenerated, for instance in epiderms (such as skin and mucous membranes) as well as in the case of various blood cells that need to be generated continuously.

It is factually impossible to die of old age. What actually happens is that when someone is so old and die, NO ONE does an autopsy on the body BECAUSE they're old. In truth, it is usually due to something else in the body going bad, like a heart attack, stroke, etc.

There's a mythology about a lobster in Japan that was huge sea monster and live for over 300 years. This was before it was killed when it attacked a sea vessel. I know Legends are blown out of proportion, but with a lobster potentially being unable to die because of being biologically immortal, it's not out of the realm of possibility. Although we might refer to as a monster class known as the Kraken. A kraken just doesn't have to be a octopus or squid.
