    @christopherkelly7594 ปีที่แล้ว

    From what I've learned from Nick Zentner, and what we can see in the basalt flows in Eastern Washington, basalt forms columns from the bottom up, and the top is actually more of a mess, since it cools from the bottom up and the top down separately. The top layer usually erodes away first (obviously) though, so we tend to see nice columns. Those columns erode away vertically very nicely, especially with water, they break off along the cracks, so they're easier to see.

      @creativedesignation7880 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Unlike the seemingly very certain answers of the previous commenters may imply, we don't know that yet.
      Scientists are still trying to pinpoint exactly what fingerprint/ friction ridge developement even looks like, since it is not quite trivial to observe a 10 week (that is when fingerprint develope in humans) old fetus while it is growing.
      As to whether it is influenced by a process similar to the one that produces zebra stripes, it might very well be possible, but there does not seem to be any evidence to proove or disproove that hypothesis. A common hypothesis is that the ridges are influenced by the structure of the lower levels of skin, in combination with tension building up on the skins surface as a fetus grows.
      (In case you are interested in friction ridge developement, here is a rather detailed article on the topic: evolveforensics.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Wertheim-and-Maceo.-The-Critical-Stage-of-Friction-Ridge-and-Pattern-Formation.pdf)
      It is quite funny to me though how sure some people are about the answer to this question, that has not been conclusively answered yet and that without providing any evidence or reasoning for their answers either.
      Also @Nutty Insomniac: the fact that two phenomena share a feature, means nothing in regards to how they occured. No two paintings have the same pattern of brush strokes either, but to assume that they must therefore have anything in common with zebra stripes or fingerprints is just nonsense.

    Much the same pattern emerges when you shrink an image super small in photoshop then expand it. If you repeat this a few dozen times the compression reduces the image into big patterns similar to zebra stripes. Probably a perfect example of simple codes manifesting themselves into macroscopic structures when repeated so many times.

    Hexes: basalt forms these in mass quantities from large areas of e. and S. WA to several in the Sierra Nevadas of CA. They are quite common to ubiquitous.
    Hexagonal formations also occur among grid cells and somewhat in other neuronal relationships in the brain - ALL brains, not just the ones you may erroneously believe to be superior.

    Christopher Alexander, a renowned architect from UC Berkeley, wrote the book 'The Pattern Language' and 'The Nature of Order' series which delve deeply into the patterns you mention (around 15 basic patterns), not to mention about a hundred or so patterns dealing with living spaces -- rooms, homes, gardens, parks, towns, countrysides, cities. he's not one of these sleek, glass-and-steel type architects or urban planners who are not in touch with the environment like you have all over the place. he totally zens out -- or groks, if you prefer -- the area he's building in, and uses the flow of the landscape, the energy of the place, if you will -- what chinese or feng shui geomancers would call 'chi' -- to set up natural living spaces that blend and use and nurture the given environment... rather than razing it all down, as if he were building another nondescript parking lot. (Although I'm sure he could build a parking lot, and a more environmentally acceptable one at that, if someone commissioned him, but honestly that would be a waste of his talents.)
    Anyway, tl;dr (i know, haha, too late) I only wanted to mention specifically in the 'Nature of Order' series, vol 1, he devotes the beginning of the book to circles, spirals, hexagons, and all the other natural, re-occurring shapes in nature, if anyone was intrigued by this aspect of the video 0:50

    Am I misunderstanding (probably) or am I correct in inferring that if we didn't have inhibitors to counter activators, we would have flipper hands?

    So pattern features in animals' bodies aren't replicated 1 to 1 from the information in DNA, but are "generated procedurally" based on a pattern-specific biomechanism and also some information that acts like a set of parameters or seeds to create different patterns in every individual. And there's the answer to the question of why DNA is so small compared to the incredibly much larger set of cells it can represent: the building instructions of any body are compressed in its DNA.

    I was taught that hexagon in basalt was not cooling and cracking, but due crystalline formation. I live in Oregon, and the two basalt sources are yellowstone super vulcano and from the forming ofthe Cascade Mountains which were formed from the cracking caused by push and uplift caused by the subduction of the San Juan de FucaFault. The explanation for the columns in reference to the very runny Yellowstone basalt lava starts with a lava flow that occurs during rain or snow which causes the top layer to cool and capping the lava and encasing it, causing it to retain heat for longer and cool slowly. For crystals or crystalline strictures, you need heat, pressure, and time. The hexagon shapes I was taught was due to crystalline structure of the basalt lava. Now, both what you present and what I have recited, both may be true, the structures in the video may be a different lava rock and a different process... looking again, I believe the lava rock and the process are different, because our columns aren't cracked, seperated, or layered, but whole tall columns the heighth of the lava flow from which they were foremd. The difference also could be due to the ocean weathering which Columbia Basalt inland does not endure, which can cause cracking from salt impregnation and expansion. Here is a link to an image example www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fiafi.org%2Fhf%2FBasalt.html&psig=AOvVaw2az7Nt59S9Umjmtf1blsqj&ust=1637617076633000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCKDT2qS1qvQCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAE

    Well, the hexagon rocks are clearly very much more regular than the other stress patterns. I bet there is something missing in that explanation. It's also not happening anywhere else and there's a lot of lava around.

      The explanation is completely illogical. Geology is fossilized biology. Research mudfossils.

    "12:45, Restate my assumptions: 1. Mathematics is the language of nature. 2. Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. 3. If you graph the numbers of any system, patterns emerge. Therefore: There are patterns everywhere in nature. Evidence: The cycling of disease epidemics; the wax and wane of caribou populations; sun spot cycles; the rise and fall of the Nile. So, what about the stock market? The universe of numbers that represents the global economy. Millions of human hands at work, billions of minds. A vast network, screaming with life. An organism. A natural organism. My hypothesis: Within the stock market, there is a pattern as well. Right in front of me. Hiding behind the numbers. Always has been."

    If fingers are a turing pattern, maybe arms and legs are too? If so, that leads us to the most Important question: BUT WHAT ABOUT DRAGONS?!? By allowing us to ask is it possible that the number of extremities can change between highly evolved classes of being? I.e. 6 legged mammals, to make a dragon.
