| Really you are reading a huge amount into this - actually
you sound a lot like
wanting Joe 90 and other memory
changing stories. Please note that the genes
are not
changing but rather the expression of those genes. In
fact you
could argue that it is like turning off the
lights and other electronic items
in the house that you are
not currently using and turning those on where you
need
them.
The monkey is unclear as it also implies that improving
health
status improves social status. Healthy animals tend
to be in better shape to
fight for their status. Bees
go through a cycle from activities in the
hive to outside
the hive (it's complex). So part of what was done is like
riding a bike, once you know you usually do not forget how.
Just because I
have a bike and car in the garage, it does
not mean that I will always ride the
bike. But if the car
unavailable, then I would ride the bike. That is the same
scenario as the bee experiment - some but not all
bees come back to the
work in the hive. If you do the
opposite, then some bees will
mature faster
and work outside the hive. Really it is pure task
management
as the bee does the job that it needs to do.
