But someone at some point had to make up that term, see its all made up.
It's not made up! It dates from 1509 and comes from the Latin "gravitatem", which means "weight, heaviness, or pressure". The first scientific use dates from 1641 (before Newton was even born) and "gravitate" dates from 1692.

And likewise, just because I made up a term doesn't mean its false.
So what? Every word in the history of mankind has been made up at some point. It doesn't mean the facts are wrong.
The facts have been shared multiple times, if your not paying attention thats your problem. You were quizzed multiple times to either put up or shut up. Never once did you present anything that explained why a species seems to know what his food is supposed to be, rather you claim that all species eat random food and stick to what they like, but you failed to explain how it is that they all like the same food as a species, and you also failed to explain why we never seem them experiementing with food. You fail frequently, but in target food you severly failed.
Yeah, after presenting scientific facts to back it up...something you completely failed doing

What you mean to say is that you don't want it to match reality even though it does, because then it wont fit your bat crazy religion.
Sure it does, if it isn't backed up by OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE. You basically made up a word and then assigned int a random definition that DOESN'T MATCH REALITY
And you lie again, if this were true, our definitions on diet would indicate this to be the case, but it's actually quite rare.
Most species learn what to eat from their parents.
Of course we learned it from our parents, we don't have any target food here, this has allready been established.
Just like you learned it from your parents
But all species would if the correct food was available, but it usually isn't.
...and that's why you don't eat insects while it's very common in Asia. Also, not all species stick to one food source, a FACT that you've been told numerous times yet continue to ignore.
Hey your the one that thought Target food was a precursor to evolution, epic fail. Just goes to show you how ignorant someone can be.
What's the point discussing evolution with you? Post after post you show off an incredible lack of education, and even worse, you aren't even willing to learn. You are the very definition of an ignoramus...and that's a FACT too

Target food is identified, and proven
Then you should have no problem disproving it, which you still fail to do.
No, what I'm I'm saying is that your made up word isn't real because you entire premise doesn't match reality
Abalone does only eat one food and it is his target food. So it looks like your wrong again.
Only in your fantasy world tooth
If they are NOT eating their target food, there is a much higher chance they will have to be trained on what to eat, and target food would just be found through instinct.
Don't believe me? Walk through Serengeti without a gun....

So what about all the rest of the species that don't teach their young how to eat? How does that work? Magic?
The other thing your failing to realize is that our understanding of them being taught how to eat is a simple observation but donesn't prove it to be conclusive. There would have to be proof by means of not subjecting them to the training to see where they go from there. If they end up eating the same food, then your wrong. It's a little to east to just accept that as fact, but your the evolutionist.

He cannot explain why there is diversity here either.
The family Haliotidae contains only one genus, Haliotis. That genus contains about four to seven subgenera. The number of species recognized worldwide ranges between 30[5] and 130[6] with over 200 species-level taxa described. The most comprehensive treatment of the family considers 56 species valid, with 18 additional subspecies.[7]
Seaweed, kelp, or alge, which are all basically the same thing. is it. Thats all.
Just fyi, Abalone has more than one food source...so as seemingly always, you are wrong

There is diversity becuse they are exposed to different enviroments, which is not to say that one day they could evolve into a different species.

This is the same guy that claims lions are not meant to hunt or to eat meat.
He is without a doubt the only person that believes the rubbish he spouts and is probably does have a target food himself.
A diet of nuts and fruit cake. You are what you eat
