comment Is it possible to make bacteria vulnerable to antibiotics it's resistant to?
This question doesn't have any claim associated with it, but rather wants to know if a certain biological process is possible, I think that because of it this question should be on Biology.SE and not here..

comment Do egg laying animals experience a pregnancy?
So your answer is that the animal doesn't feel any serious change between laying a fertilized and an unfertilized egg?

comment Is there an “Adam and Eve” for each new trait during (not just human) evolution?
I'm not talking about speciation here, like the question you reference to, but about new mutation/features. I'm aware that the first dinosaur with feathers is still a dinosaur, and the first fish with lungs is still a fish, the question is, was there only 1 first fish with lungs, who's the ancestor of all creatures with lungs, or were there several fish that all developed lungs independently, and then interbred between themselves to produce all lunged creatures, but there is no 1 specific ancestors to all, but several different individual ancestors.

comment Do egg laying animals experience a pregnancy?
@shigeta, in guess that this means that a full answer will need to touch on both types. For example what happens to a sparrow or a salmon that doesn't mate on its season, and as asked before is there a difference between laying a fertile and an infertile egg from the POV of the chicken/ant.

comment Why does the gender of the parent species determines the species of a hybrid offspring
@nico, maybe I'm using the word "species" wrong, I use it in its layman definition, as "different types of animals". The meaning is, as I said, that significantly different animals are born from the same parent animals, and that the change is consistent with the gender of the different parent animals. If you can think of a better term than "specie" please edit the question to bee more accurate.

@KonradRudolph, but species are not defined just for the fun of it (I guess, I don't really know), they are defined because there are significant differences between two animals, and in the case of those two interbreeding, those differences are consistent with the gender of the parent species. In other cases, like the different types of Zebroids (Zebra and donkey/horse/pony hybrid) that doesn't seem to be differentiated by parent species gender. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebroid)
