Now that genetic technology is so advanced, why don't scientists resurrect dinosaurs according to genes?
Hello, dear friends, welcome to the scientific world. Today, let's approach gene technology and dinosaurs and explore their hidden mysteries. As an ancient creature on the earth, dinosaurs have long been extinct, but they still live in the hearts of scientists and dinosaur fans. Since ancient times, scientists have never stopped pursuing dinosaur footprints and exploring dinosaur mysteries. But even so, the known part of dinosaurs is just the tip of the iceberg, which is still as mysterious to us.

Because the age of dinosaurs is really long now, it is very difficult to study them.

Some people with big brain holes may think, with the advanced genetic technology, is it possible to resurrect dinosaurs according to genes? Indeed, this is a very good idea. With the continuous breakthrough of gene technology, the human genome project has been successfully completed. Scientists have been able to directionally transform and transfer genes, thus changing the morphology of organisms. Even design a genetically perfect person according to human wishes. However, due to social ethics, genetically perfect clones have never appeared. But this does not mean that genetic technology is immature.

So from a realistic point of view, it is completely conditional to resurrect dinosaurs according to genes. But why don't scientists do this? Are scientists worried about what disasters the dinosaurs will bring to the earth after their resurrection? After all, dinosaurs, a giant creature, only exist in human imagination and movie pictures. If it really appears in the real world, it will definitely have an overwhelming impact on some creatures. In fact, it is not what scientists are worried about, but it is very difficult to know all the genes of dinosaurs.

Scientists study dinosaurs mostly through fossils, but these fossils are too far away to extract dinosaur genes from them. So at present, no dinosaur genes have been found in the real world. However, according to the research course of scientists, the DNA of dinosaurs was once discovered by humans, but it was basically polluted. What is pollution? Simply put, this DNA is of no use to scientists. It may be some DNA fragments that have existed in the environment for too long and become incomplete.

The extinction distance of dinosaurs has been more than 60 million years now. What is this concept? Maybe we can't understand it at all. Such a long time distance also makes the resurrection of dinosaurs a century problem. Because if you want to resurrect a dinosaur based on genes, you must know all the genetic genes in its genome. Now even the discovery of dinosaur genes is a problem. Even if they are found, most of them are useless and polluted. So, realistically speaking, there is no chance to bring dinosaurs back to the real world.
