But that makes sense for that mutation to simply become popular, but not a series of mutations that follow up that are making it from point A (non-turning) to point B (Turning). One mutation fine, two or three, fine, but a whole small series of them, leading towards a complex system, that takes direction and needs that to be favoured in some way or another.No, it doesn't, and I don't know why you keep insisting that it does. The mutations need only be non-deleterious and passed on. They don't have to become popular, they don;t have to confer any advantage at all. Though I would give a nod to economy in that if an organism keeps expressing a useless adaptation -at the expense- of the "standard equipment" owned by it's fellows that there would likely be a penalty to that.
Quote:Also it seems you need several parts from non-turning to turning to work in conjunction, but that seems problematic if it's only small changes, so hope you see where I'm stuck at.I do see where you're stuck at, and it's language, as it has been from the start. So you need "several parts". So what? What is problematic?
It's not an "all of a sudden" sort of thing...now is it? B doesn't need to be an advantage, as I just explained to you.
