Hi , I'd like to contribute the following consideration : 1� Genes want to adapt to new environments ( evolution ) . 2� Organs , subsystems and parts of the body are instruments that serve the genes which developed them ; ( genes want the organs , subsystems and parts of the body for adapting to new environments or environmental circumstances ) . 3� Sensory nervous system is a part or subsystem of the body ( in animal kingdom ) . 4� So , sensory nervous system is an instrument that serve the genes , for evolving and adapting to new environments ; ( genes want - also - sensory nerves for adapting to new environments ) . 5� The function of sensory nervous system is to provide the ability to refer proper motive actions to external objects or information ; the function of sensory nervous system is to detect external information . 6� So , it seems that , in some way , genes should use the sensory nervous system to " get information " , or to " watch " or to " know " the environment , and , this way , to evolve ( mutate ) in an adaptive manner . Or it seems that this idea has a certain scientific characteristic . 7� So , nervous system should be able to influence in some manner in some of the mutations of genes , according to environmental information . If it happens , it probably occurs as any chemical conditioning in the formation of reproductive cells , where nervous system can take part . Maybe some specialized neurons can control the release of certain chemical substances . But a neuro-chemical mechanism of this nature has not been described yet , and I think it should be an amazing discovery . Examples : > External temperature determines the sex of eggs of crocodile . > Recently Courtney Miller and David Sweatt have proved the importance of methylation of DNA for cerebral retention of memories . > An important example : the genetic internalization ( genetic encoding ) of learning . It is specially visible in primitive animals ( conduct of bees for building the honeycomb ; conduct of many insects for building their lairs ; conduct of certain birds or fishes in their migrations ) . Could future human babies spontaneously develope innate aptitudes or abilities for speaking or handling mathematical operations ?
