Correct! The process is called parthenogenesis, and is easy to do in many animals, just by stimulating an egg with a small pin. although the process is easier to undertake with lower animals, studies in the UK indicate that healthy females occasionally occur in this manner. Chromosome studies of suspected cases confirm this indeed happens. Parthenogenic females have only 24 chromosomes. Obviosly many, perhaps most parthenogenic pregancies end up as miscarriages, because most humans carry several unexpressed lethal genes on one or both sets (paternal or maternal) The dual sets of chromosomes we have act to protect us as individuals and ultimately preserve the species, however if an egg haapens to have a perfect chromosome set of 24, there is no reason a healthy female cannot result from a non-impreganted pregancy. Cosmological duality also serves essentially the same purposes...protection and preservation of the cosmos....while enough flexibiblity is permitted within the system to permit phylogenic growth and development of the parts of the whole...us. |
