Let humanity far eight animals Super ability (map)

Their ability to let humanity far behind

According to the latest issue of New Scientist "reported that from the intelligence analysis, and indeed is this human planet's most advanced animal. In fact, scientists knew, including animals, other organisms is not devoid of any merit, they also have a lot of people's ability to catch up, some even amazing, especially the following eight ability as most. As technology advances, the human can ability of these super "themselves"?

Puppy super sensitive sense of smell

Dogs can smell the scent of the Earth found his master, why can't humans? it must be recognized that the dog has an advantage in this regard, because their nose odor receiver in quantity is our human 20-40 times.

United States Florida State University's Debra · Ontario · Fadul professors have discovered a "Kv1.3" genes that scientists are conducting experiments on mice, remove Kv1.3 gene, can significantly increase the sensitivity of the mouse on the smell. Humans also have Kv1.3 gene. In General, we can take appropriate drug interdiction Kv1.3 gene, or a future day can use gene therapy to selectively make it lose functionality. Fadul said: "If you are a professional wine tasting, it also can make you a greater advantage. ”

Owls can tell sound source of auditory

Our hearing is limited in frequency band, because the voice response of hair cells are located in the inner ear. Because our external ear shape rough short, we cannot find the sound accurately. However, the current number of scientific and technological means to make our ears to hear a wider range of frequencies.

Louisville listening Institute expert Fred · Victor Mann said, as long as the change in our external ear (pinna) shapes that can significantly enhance our ability of echolocation. Victor Manuel from OWL found this inspiration. He found that the OWL feather around the ear can improve direction sensitivity, contribute to the OWL to tell sound source. In this way, as long as the change in shape or size ears, human listening to be able to do the OWL and the bat as sensitive.

Newt leg fractured, 3 months to regenerate

If Newt one leg cut down within 24 hours, a layer of stem cells would damage the Director. But after three months, Newt's a new leg at the Registrar, and can restore the original functionality. For humans, no matter what measures will not be restored to this level. But Newt why so special? scientists discover that Newt adult cells could restore to stem cell State, this State usually occurs only in the embryo. In these cells, specific genes will be activated. Although we still cannot have same as Newt regeneration capacity, but some researchers believe that there may have some human regeneration.
