Perplexing questions!

I have a few questions for you!

Q. Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

This is a question that poses a dilemma for many people. If you're expecting me to say there's no answer to that question, you'd be wrong. It's the egg that came first.

Most scientists think that all life on earth evolved. Evolution is the gradual development of life to suit its surroundings. For example, a worm lives underground so it doesn't need very good eyes because there isn't very much to see so any eyes worms once had have been lost form generation to generation. We can't change while we're alive, but our offspring can. As things gradually evolve, they can change quite a bit. Have you ever seen pictures of what we think our ancestors looked like? Big foreheads, lots of hair, longer arms, slouched backs etc. We weren't really human then; we have gradually evolved to as we are now.

The same has happened with the chicken. If you go back into history, what we today call a chicken would have looked different. It might have had webbed feet which made it hard to walk. Then one day one of the chickens laid an egg and from that egg came a bird that didn't have webbed feet, which was just like our present day chicken. It had evolved.

But that had to start with the egg, so the egg came first.

I also have a few word puzzles (:
