Digestive System Within Limbs This one might be a bit weird, but here it goes... In designing the evolutionary history of my world, I've devised an evolutionary branch of animals adapting to terrestrial environments. Lacking rear fins, the lineage has instead modified their tails into an impromptu limb, making them tripods. Howe... (more) |

Survival of Eukaryotic Life in Stagnant Oceans I was trying to figure out the early geological/biological history of the world I'm creating, and I was wondering about the development of early life. Basically, I've envisioned a world where Eukaryotic cells are the most complex form of life, but at the same time, a global catastrophe comparable to ... (more) |

Bumblebees without Flowers Just a fleeting hypothetical that crossed my mind. Say that no flowering plants exist. I don't know why - say a world has been terraformed with various Earth species. Bumblebees are present, but flowering plants are not. The question is - Would Bumblebees be capable of adapting to a world without fl... (more) |

Feasibility of Bipedal Chelonians I'm creating a creature that possesses an outwardly Chelonian-like appearance. However, the creature is bipedal. Specifically, the creature possesses upright, pillar-like hind limbs, as well as a Kangaroo-type posture. However, this was when I began to wonder - Can an otherwise Chelonian-type creat... (more) |

Increased Luminosity in Stars I'm trying to construct a solar system, and I'm toying with the idea that the planet capable of sustaining life was initially outside of the habitable zone, but the star's advanced age has caused the luminosity to increase, thereby shifting the HZ further outwards. How do you calculate the increase ... (more) |

Effects of Hot Jupiters on habitable planets Essentially, I'm designing a solar system for form of alien life. For the sake of ease, the star is roughly similar to the Sun, and the habitable planet follows an orbit anywhere between Earth and Mars. However, from what I've been able to research, it seems that a large amount of extrasolar planets... (more) |

Secondarily Plantigrade Limbs So, this came about when I was attempting to construct create a unified Kaiju universe, and wondering about a hypothetical evolutionary path of Godzilla. However, I figured that it could also open up more possibilities when building hypothetical other worlds of mine. Sometimes, in biology, a feature... (more) |

Asymmetrical Limbs So, I've been designing an alien species, actually a redesign of something from childhood. However, I've recently come into an issue with its limbs. The creature possesses two arms. The right arm is roughly humanoid, ending in a prehensile hand. Currently, there are eight digits, although this may b... (more) |
