[QUOTE="BranKetra"][QUOTE="galerouth"] oh, you are so cute. you make me feel like a little school all over again.galerouth
Are you serious?
You've been arguing this whole time that a fetus is a parasite.
Parasites are negative creatures. Having offspring continues a species.It's a positive trait. That's the point. The universe doesn't build on nothing. You have to give what you want to get out. Read about the "law of conversation of energy." That's what happens in a pregnancy. It isn't a parasite, as already said by many others ITT.
I'm not sure why you keep arguing these minute points because the overall reason for the zygote's actions is a positive one.
negative is a emo-word, anyways. "Having offspring continues a species.It's a positive trait" according to whom? women been having abortions, thus your point is moot. fetus is a parasite because of the way it behaves to the woman's body, and symbiosis doesn't have anything to do with the whole entire species, just two or more organism. you can't coming back here, because you like to be verbally abused by me, duh --- you know i'm right --- i gots swag and mad pimp skillz! THIS IS SCIENCE: FETUS IS NOT A BABY (GOOGLE THE HUMAN DEVELOPMENT CHART), but a parasite because the classification of the biological relationship that is based on the behavior one organism (fetus) and how it relates to the woman's body. as a zygote, it invaded the woman's uterus using its TROPHOBLAST cells, hijacked her immune system by using NEUROKININ B and HCG--- so her body doesn't kill it, steals her nutrients to survive, and causes her harm or potential death. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trophoblast "The placenta functions as an immunological barrier between the mother and the fetus, creating an immunologically privileged site. For this purpose, it uses several mechanisms: It secretes Neurokinin B containing phosphocholine molecules. This is the same mechanism used by parasitic nematodes to avoid detection by the immune system of their host.[2]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_tolerance_in_pregnancy "Progesterone enriches the uterus with a thick lining of blood vessels and capillaries so that it can sustain the growing fetus. Due to its highly-negative charge, hCG may repel the immune cells of the mother, protecting the fetus during the first trimester. It has also been hypothesized that hCG may be a placental link for the development of local maternal immunotolerance." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_chorionic_gonadotropin "It is also possible for a symbiotic relationship to exist between two organisms of the same species." http://www.answers.com/topic/symbiosis -- Gale's Science of Everyday Things. just like a parasitic twin --- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasitic_twin "an animal or plant that lives in or on another (the host) from which it obtains nourishment. The host does not benefit from the association and is often harmed by it" http://www.thefreedictionary.com/parasite pregnancy CAUSES HARM: http://www.thelizlibrary.org/liz/004.htmWhen a women has a child, she releases endorphins on that child. It is somewhat positive. Woman do have abortions, because they feel like they are inadequate to take care of that child. Women don't just get abortions for rec purposes.
