Introduction

Section 1: Religious Growth

p4: frog A study published out of Hiroshima University in 2021 supports frogs as the ancestor of other vertebrates, stating  “What’s more, the research team uncovered that the potential sex-chromosomes involved in the translocations contained orthologs of the sex-determining genes in mammals, birds, and fishes.”

A 2021 TED talk by Michael Levin reviews new research with frogs that is helping to identify and manipulate an electrical communication between cells (not related to the nervous systems) that tells cells how to behave.

Section 3: Concepts of Supreme Value
