Vision, not limbs, led fish onto land 385 million years ago
Enviado por Cattel el 2017-03-08 13:31:50 | Host: news.northwestern.eduMe preguntaba por qué casi todos los animales desarrollamos ojos en lugar de otros tipos de sentidos (térmicos, magnéticos, auditivos), capaz parte de la respuesta está al principio de todo: "The massive increase in visual capability enabled by vision in air likely allowed early-limbed animals to evolve more complex cognition. These animals were no longer forced to react with split-second speed as was required by life in the vision-limiting water. Eventually, the researchers said, evolution led to the human capability of prospective cognition: the power to weigh options for the future and to choose strategically."
