I was in another thread and someone made the comment “literally the only motivating force for any life is actually genetic material’s incentive to propagate itself.”
And that got me thinking, “yeah, I obviously know that the ultimate end goal for an organism is passing on its genes… but why?” Why does that matter, or rather why is it a goal for genetic material to propagate and perpetuate itself? What is the “incentive” here and WHY is that an incentive?
In: Biology
If a living thing don’t pass its genes, then its genes don’t passes. Every genes today are there because they were passed. Genes that didn’t have to pass themselves as a goal dissapeared, because they didn’t passed to the future.
