Why the trek of the eel is interesting?




When the eel (European, American, and American Conger eel)(Wikipedia, Sargasso Sea)) is growing to adult and reach its sexually mature it starts to travel to the Sargasso Sea. This behavior is encoded in its genomes, because also eels, which are gown without contact to sea are traveling to the Sargasso Sea.

This trek behavior has been noted to be the same with all eel populations that are mentioned earlier in this text without separating eels, which are grown in lakes and sea, which means it's genetically coded. So these kinds of things are interesting because if these kinds of complex animals are behaving like this, that means that other kinds of behavior can be coded in the genetic material of animals and humans.

This kind of research, where the heritable behavior is under observation can benefit the research of human behavior. When we are thinking about Tourette, ADHD, and many other diseases like sensorial hypersensitivity those things are transmitted over generations. There is a small error in genomes, which is causing that kind of thing. But there is something that causes genetic anomaly. Why those things were useful, that they are encoded in our genomes?

Only one person or individual doesn't make a large-scale genetic anomaly, what appears in behavioral anomaly? Were those things somehow helpful for humans, that lived as hunter-collectors? The fact is that ADHD is not seen only in humans. Also, things like reptilians and other animals like cats and dogs have ADHD-like problems staying in place. Also, some fish has problems following their species comrades, and that behavior tells that ADHD has seen useful. But when we are living in modern society, that thing causes problems.

The interesting thing is why those kinds of anomalies like unable to concentrate are so common? Maybe the answers can be found from the genomes of animals like an eel. Heritable behavior is an interesting thing because it allows us to transfer information and skills over generations. We can think that things like programming skills or learning languages can transform into senses. Things like the fear of spiders are transferred from the generations before us.

And in some visions, the person would get new skills by injecting them with the virus, which is connecting those skills to their genomes. That thing instinctual behavior to skills, what might benefit that person and the entire human race. But those things are only thoughts. But maybe somewhere in the future mankind can transfer skills over generations by using artificial viruses.
