Which came first, the chicken or the egg
Idea

if u think the egg come first, u are wrong, because the egg come from the chicken. so did the chicken come first?

if u think the chicken come first, u are also wrong because the chicken came from the egg. So the egg come first?

scroll down for the answer

The answer is: Both came first. because the chicken is around with the egg in in its body. All life forms with the genetic imprint of reproduction.

i believe more in chicken come first by evolution theory. the ancestors of chicken, let's called it chickenMama1, i would speculate that it did not reproduce using an egg. somehow, chickenMama1 evolves to chickenMama2, which could have develop organs for producing eggs but may or may not necessarily use it as a means for reproduction.......subsequent further evolution to chickenMamaX finds it more fitter to reproduce using an egg and natural selection favours it and becomes the default reproduction method. the chickenMamas might be extinct because its fitness is lower than chicken and this get selected against by natural selection. well, i am speculating Wink

but this is a fact: a species typically last only about 4 million years on earth. about 99% of the species inhabited on earth since the life is created are extinct now. it is because the rate of environmental change is faster than the rate of adaptation via evolution of the species Smile

Chicken rice came next for sure

Saint Valentine SG

consider how u were born. u are the product of your parents genes. It means u were existing all along with them in their body.

as life makes copies of itself.

If one says egg comes first, then where does the parents come from?

If one says chicken comes first, then where does the egg comes from?

There's no right or wrong answer to it.

dumbdumb! SG

i believe the chicken came first. Creation theory Mr. Green

a better question. Why did the chicken cross the road

lousyboiboi SG

my A lvl Qn.

chicken and egg.

fibrous and structural protein Confused

kopiosatu SG

u think too much Laughing

TehJarVu SG

nice to eat can oredi, who cares which came first? =p

Saint Valentine SG

dont u realise the question itself is flawed?. There is no proper answer for a flawed question.There is only a logical answer for a flawed question.

the egg came first, come other mutated birdo laid a new species egg called a Chicken Laughing

There may be a right answer to this question, but just because we don't have the answer for certain, doesn't mean that there is no correct answer, maybe only God knows. So far, I believe the scientists believed that chicken evolved/mutate from another species that perhaps gave birth instead of laying eggs. Just like they believe humans evolved/mutate from monkeys. Chicken may have mutated from another kind. Spieces need to mutate and change constantly to suit the environment otherwise the species will be extinct. If humans cannot adapt, when they travel from winter to summer or go to some countries with extreme weather, they would perish easily.

Saint Valentine SG

as i said earlier the only logical answer both came first. both co exist at the same time. called a paradox.

yesterday I dreamt a new species of shark called the tubular shark somehow appeared in a Singapore aquarium.

You never know, you know.

Saint Valentine SG

A paradox is an apparently true statement or group of statements that seems to lead to a contradiction or to a situation that defies intuition. Typically, either the statements in question do not really imply the contradiction, the puzzling result is not really a contradiction, or the premises themselves are not all really true (or, cannot all be true together). The recognition of ambiguities, equivocations, and unstated assumptions underlying known paradoxes has led to significant advances in science, philosophy and mathematics.

The word paradox is often used interchangeably and wrongly with contradiction; but where a contradiction by definition cannot be true, many paradoxes do allow for resolution, though many remain unresolved or only contentiously resolved

self-flowing flask fills itself in this diagram, but perpetual motion machines cannot exist.

ndmmxiaomayi SG

While you are right, the question still stays. Egg or chicken comes first? Humans may not lay eggs, but the eggs are still there.

FadeToBlack SG

I think Christian has the answer in saying God created them..

But whatever, who cares about the past? for we live for the future..

Allen.Iverson SG

evolution is not proven. and i dont want to believe in such a ridiculously stupid theory. would u wanna think u came from those apes??? its stupid. really. darwin was just being dumb when he came up with that crap.

CoolMyth SG

I prefer in the egg.

The egg mutated and became a chicken instead of another bird. Laughing
