Re: Water

Well assuming that life can evolve w/o water (although we really don't know how it would would work) it would be very unlikely that it would resemble humans in much of any way. We are a result of natural selection provided by not only the environment, but the other species we interact with. Any system based on completely different chemistry would no doubt have very different species (not to mention the greatly varying abiotic factors that would exist in a non-water environment). Just look at the variances between desert species and marine species..(and thats just a little less water).

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
