Bizarre!!

I had posted this a long time ago on a dormant blog of mine.. so thought I'd bring it here as well..

There are plenty of wierd 'happenings' that occur and about which we have no clue whatsoever...One such occurence is a sexual behaviour seen among a certain egg mite species...The pregnant female mite feeds on the eggs of other insects in order to provide nourishment for her developing offsprings... Her little ones grow inside her.. one male to several females... while still inside the mother, the male impregnates all his sisters and dies... the females come out by eating their way out of their mother's womb, thus killing her in the process... and this continues...
Incest often leads to severe genetic problems due to the expression of recessive genes.. but in this case, things get even more bizarre!.. this mite seems to have only dominant genes.. and no recessive...
