Generally insertions or deletions are repaired and don't result in any kind of problematic mutation. There's also the fact that the mutation would have to occur to the gamete which went on to fertilize the egg cell. That gamete would have to have had no form of repair done to the DNA strand plus it would then have to produce a viable embryo for it to produce a "new species". All of which is a virtually impossible sequence of events to occur.Regardless, DNA insertions and deletions are not the main problem with regards to replication of DNA.
While genetics was never my strong point in my forensics masters I know a bit or 2 about it. Although most of that was analysis of STR's and PCR.
I've forgotten a fair bit of the generally useless basics of DNA replication too though.
1. virtually impossible in one go, give it all the creatures on earth and billions of chances............
2. there are certain technicalities in grasses etc which allow them to bypass a few f those steps
3. doesnt apply to asexual reproduction
4. the point i was making was about the fallacious claim that "no new information is added to the dna"

In theory it could but it would mean that all the several different mechanisms of DNA repair would have to fail in order for the incorrect proteins to be permanently coded for.DNA repair mechanisms fix about a million of these mutations every day in the average human.

Not really applicaple given that this entire debate was triggered by the odd notion that a human can be subject so a DNA mutation and suddenly become a new species.
Wait you're claiming that insertions only happen in theory? The reason we know about them at all is because there are cases where it happened.
Deary me. Yes, I know that. Do people insist on always taking posts out of the context of the discussion? We're talking about these mutations creating entirely new and viable species because of a insertion/deletion etc. Do you know of any documented cases of this happening? Because I certainly don't.

Yeah, you never look at posts of people on your ignore list.

Cool, how about you never address posters with things like "conspiracy theorist" ever again while we're all doing this.
😕 So, you are in support of conspiracy theories? There is nothing wrong with conspiracy theories. They simply have their own forum. Will you never tell someone to go to the correct forum?
Let me tell you what is really going on. You have something up your butt, but this is not the place for you to vent your "off topic opinion".

Nah. I figured that you could easily clear this up by posting about it. In the mean time, I was playing devil's advocate in your defense.
Obviously, that's a problem for you. I won't post on this anymore.

You're all off topic, as the thread was about the time-shift due to the Earth's rotation.
But this rabble about DNA and whatnot is much better, so please proceed.
