Not fancy words, but the correct technical language when discussing evolutionary theory and genetics.

Terms I leaned about in my science degree in zoology... :tea:
That's fine for discussing with your peers but smacks of appeal to authority on here. Make your point...not a treatise.
I suspect everyone here is able to parse the post into common use...so can you....even without the tilt. :biggrin: :coffee:

Google told me:
People also ask
Do Teslas have engines and transmissions?
Why doesn't Tesla have a transmission?

Part of the reason that Tesla vehicles do not have any transmissions lies in the fact that internal combustion engines cannot run below a particular speed, while Teslas and other electric vehicles don't have that caveat.Jan 1, 2021
