Studying the biological basis for those effects in humans would be difficult. So Ressler and his colleague Brian Dias opted to study epigenetic inheritance in laboratory mice trained to fear the smell of acetophenone, a chemical the scent of which has been compared to those of cherries and almonds. He and Dias wafted the scent around a small chamber, while giving small electric shocks to male mice. The animals eventually learned to associate the scent with pain, shuddering in the presence of acetophenone even without a shock.
This reaction was passed on to their pups, Dias and Ressler report today in Nature Neuroscience1. Despite never having encountered acetophenone in their lives, the offspring exhibited increased sensitivity when introduced to its smell, shuddering more markedly in its presence compared with the descendants of mice that had been conditioned to be startled by a different smell or that had gone through no such conditioning. A third generation of mice — the 'grandchildren' — also inherited this reaction, as did mice conceived through in vitro fertilization with sperm from males sensitized to acetophenone. Similar experiments showed that the response can also be transmitted down from the mother.

Jesus Christ gave many "indicator markings" to help us to determine when His second coming is near. One of these is mentioned in Luke 17:28-30:
Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
Jesus shows us that an indicator of His imminent return is that the society around us will be similar to that of Sodom when Lot lived there nearly four thousand years ago. People will be going about their everyday lives seemingly unconcerned about the egregious evils in society, unaware that their lifestyles are abominable in the eyes of God. Thinking their ways of life are "normal," they will not expect the calamitous events that will befall them.

If you could shrink small enough to descend the genetic helix of any animal, plant, fungus, bacterium or virus on Earth as though it were a spiral staircase, you would always find yourself turning right — never left. It’s a universal trait in want of an explanation.

And if one Ascends, you would turn LEFT.
Your point is mute. It is of course, relative.
So...How did Noah save all the freshwater animals from the seawater.

Furthermore, hybrids of freshwater trout and migratory salmon are known, suggesting the differences between freshwater and marine fish may be quite minor. Indeed, the physiological differences may only be largely differences in degree rather than in kind. Many of today’s fish species have the capacity to adapt to both fresh and salt water within their own lifetimes. This is why major aquariums are able to house freshwater and saltwater fish together, by using this ability of fish to adapt to water of different salinity from their normal habitats.

And how did Jesus feed the four thousand, God was at work and miracles happen when God's will's them, even if Noah had forgotten the food which he did not or did not have enough there would always have been enough since they were literally under God's protection, remember how he rained manna from heaven for the Israelites in the wilderness.
So that argument falls flat since God was in charge.
Now a science based ark built by a scientist and not a man of God would have had a lot more difficulty but since God is the ultimate scientist he beats our limited knowledge of science instantly and he can do what we - what no one else - can do, anything literally is possible were he is concerned, we whinge and blame God wrongly for our own failing's for those we lose but the truth is we have to go through all of this, Adam and Evil the apple in the garden.
A Jewish mystic explained it like this, Adam and Eve were spiritual beings and having taken the knowledge of good and evil they reduced themselves to about the same rank as the Angels but were a lot younger than the Angels, also God had warned them if they ate the fruit they would die (know the evil of mortality), they hid because they were ashamed and knew there nakedness after eating of the fruit and there nature was changed by the fruit and they no longer belonged in the Eden into which they had been created and were originally intended to live so they were woven new cloth's by God for they had attempted to make some themselves from the leaves of the plants of the garden, just like YOUR body was woven (Formed) together in your mothers womb BY God according to Isiah a prophet of the Lord.
So they could no longer live in a place of pure goodness since they were now half evil and had to suffer half evil as that is what knowing evil is and they were cast out of the garden as much for its protection (they had already started to destroy it like they have done to the earth where there is already ample evil prey and predators) as for there own and into the earth.
So according to that Jewish mystic the dust they were made of in Eden was the dust of Eden which was good and spiritual and then God breathed there souls into them then there clothing which God made for them as not simply clothing but also there earthly body's.
Of course I am getting a bit weird here and also leaving the plot BUT think about it, if you don't want to believe then don't but open your mind a bit, Jesus is real as well and he DID defeat death on our behalf so God has given his children a way back and it cost him dearly the price he paid for us.
You have that choice, the choice that Eve and Adam's wrongful act robbed them of, you get to become new and to leave evil behind if you so choose, it does not happen right away it happens when God say's and the only thing he ask's of us is that we believe and try to be good as best we can.
Of course this could be heresy and so I am happy to say I will just stick with my faith in Jesus and admit I don't know but that I believe were God is concerned ANYTHING is indeed possible including us seeing our loved ones again someday.

How about stop glorifying genocide as a morally defensible instafix to morally dubious society. There's no spirituality in the concept of murdering entire nations wholesale.
