Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Reptiles were producing eggs millions of years before the ancestors of the chicken walked the Earth, author LizzieStark found.
The egg is seen and used throughout history and across cultures. It shows up so frequently in mythology that scholars named it “the cosmic egg,” Stark says.
An egg is a paradox. It is both alive and not-alive, the most precious and most worthless cell in the world: precious because it can generate new life; worthless because most efforts at creation fail, so evolution plays the odds and makes eggs plentiful. Take human ovaries. Those of us born with them start life with about one million eggs. By puberty, we’re down to roughly three hundred thousand.
