ninjakarl Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 depends on your beliefs. evolutionism: birds would have evolved into wat we now call a chicken. but that would mean that the egg was first. because a bird would lay that egg and it would then become the chicken. but this would have happened over many many years. creationism: the chicken. because god created the chicken. but come to think of it. god wouldnt have created chickens in the beggining because it wouldnt be a chicken nowadays because it would have evolved. i think the egg. just seems right.

+Xinok Subscriber² Posted April 16, 2005 Subscriber² Share Posted April 16, 2005 It all started out with single atoms ;) I think its something like atoms started to connect to eachother to make single cells, or bacteria or something. Then soon the cells started to multiply making larger organisms. Over time, it evolves far enough when it becomes an organism which can give birth. Now each birth had a small change in the animal. Each generation of this species would evolve just a little bit, until it becomes the chickens we have today. So if I had to make a choice, I'd have to say the egg came first ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazebee_ Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 it really depends on which side you're on: creationist or evolutionist. im creationist, so i say God created the chick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel925 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 The chicken evolved from an earlier creature. I can't imagine an egg could evolve from anything, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan - Posted April 16, 2005 Author Share Posted April 16, 2005 ^ yes this is an evolution matter, which is bascically how gorillas turned into humans and how something beccame a chicken casuing the chicken to be 1st and after this chicken is formed the chicken will lay eggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humans from gorillas, that's the funniest thing I've heard all week.And as for the chicken, animals were laying eggs in one form or another hundreds of millions of years before the chicken clucked it's first cluck. Before any animal thought it'd be a great idea to get a bit dry and go on the beach. Animals either lay eggs or give birth to live young depending on their surroundings. It's a defense mechanism, as much as anything. Scientists have pretty much found out what came first and it was the "egg" It all started out with single atoms ;)I think its something like atoms started to connect to eachother to make single cells, or bacteria or something. Then soon the cells started to multiply making larger organisms. Over time, it evolves far enough when it becomes an organism which can give birth. 585782990[/snapback] nearly right, the atoms formed molecules, which in turn strung themselves together to form amino acids. These then in turn formed proteins and on and on and on. Cells formed after about a billion years. If you actually think about it its a mindf**k. It's so amazing it's unreal. If you don't want to get too heavy, read something like "A Short History Of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson. Some chapters in their tell you about Life.

Hum Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 A better question is, which came first: God or the chicken ? :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Teh Chicken, otherwise how would god eat? :D :p Actually its a pretty weird question but... it all leads to: Chicken First: Where the hell then chicken was born! Egg First: Where the hell egg came from! Both can be ansewered with "And god created the egg/chicken", and if we track down to its origin, probably we wouldnt end in a few years...

Hankyone Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 thats all about evolution, whatever was there before created an egg -> hatches -> new kind of pre-chicken -> egg -> chicken so the chicken was there before you say? WRONG! there was eggs millions of years before the chicken even exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan - Posted April 17, 2005 Author Share Posted April 17, 2005 i have another thought it may be that an animal that was there before the chicken that is kindaf similar to the chicken... this animal that was there before laid an egg but instead of another of its own being born a chicken came out causing the egg to come out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 The egg... The chicken evolved from other animals that layed eggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0wi Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Fish type creatures came first, which didn't lay eggs, well some did and some did not. Then dinosaurs evolved from fish type creatures and dinosaurs layed eggs, then chickens evolved from dinosaurs. So I'd have to say the chicken came first. But you could also say the egg came first. Because there was a dinosaur that have had to layed the first egg that evolved into the first chicken. But I would go with the former. --- I guess it depends on how you want to look at it.

redfish Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 if you're talking about chicken eggs and not eggs in general and are assuming there was a first chicken-->[the first chicken and first chicken egg happened at the same time, when the first chicken hatched from the first chicken egg]<--the only answer (though tautological) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1h4iL Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Imo the chicken came first, seriously God wouldnt create earth full of eggs around the place, so he would create random animals that made eggs. Do you see a world with just eggs in the beginning? i dont :huh: and who would sit on the eggs till they hatch :ninja: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedogg Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 I hate this question. Its one of those false misleading ones. The actual question should be: "Which came first, the chicken or the chicken egg?" and the clear answer would be the chicken, because it wouldnt be a chicken's egg unless it was a chicken that it came from.

Because there was a dinosaur that have had to layed the first egg that evolved into the first chicken. But I would go with the former. Correct. The "dinosaur" (i preffer to call it a pre-chicken) their genes was 99.9999999% of a chicken but still it a not real chicken. And for mutation (in every generation there are some mutation), the new eggs was of a 100% chicken. So what's first :the eggs. a almost-nearby-chicken can put chicken eggs?. YES! (not always but is feasible). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

username Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 actually, through evolution, they zytote was first, (which we call the egg that is fertilized) the the chicken is a demesticated animal made by man through artificial selection, when man got the desired traits, an egg that grew into the desired outcome, the artivificial selection stopped it always starts with the egg because mutations occure as a zygote, though the "egg" is really just a gamete (1/2) the genetics, so it could come from the sperm or the egg, or during the formation of the zygote for evolution to occure. In that this mutation has to be benificial to the succession of the living organism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
