Are there examples of encryption in nature? @JackAidley Well if you want to be pedantic they can be examples of Cryptography rather than Encryption, but its the closest example in Biology I can think of. |

Are there examples of encryption in nature? @JackAidley modern encryption is used for signing/verifying messages as much as encrypting/decrypting them. The RM system is a form of signing/verifying. |

What is a Mitochondrial Eve and Y-chromosomal Adam Just to note that you don't always get the mitochondria from the mother, sometimes you get some from the father too (but this is very rare.) This doesn't really change anything other than the "unbroken line of mothers" aspect. |

Is there an “Adam and Eve” for each new trait during (not just human) evolution? If you a new mutation which is recessive, although there is one progenitor, the phenotype might not be realised until many several generations later when the first homozygous offspring is born. In this case you don't really have an Adam and Eve. You could even have the first exhibitions of the phenotype occur simultaneously in different populations. |

Do T-cells express MHC molecules? Antigen-presenting cells include dendritic cells, and B-cells, but there are more: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antigen_presenting_cells |

Does the DNA sequence of a butterfly match that of the caterpillar it used to be? @AlanBoyd I imagine the germline cells' DNS remains the same? |

Does the DNA sequence of a butterfly match that of the caterpillar it used to be? Sometimes a caterpillar turns into a wasp rather than a butterfly. But then its DNA Is very different! (And it doesn't go on to make more catterpillars) |
