Scientists have found the creatures, which are the first in the world have sex – Asian Reporter

SYDNEY, Oct. 21 / Asian Reporter /. Australian scientists have come to the conclusion that the first living things on Earth, which began to breed to have sex, there were fish called Microbrachius dicki, reports Daily Mail.

 

 

This fish was about eight inches in length and lived in the lakes in what is now Scotland. The males of this fish had an L-shaped appendage, which they introduced into a small bone structure at the back of the female fish.

 

It is interesting that so far none of the scientists did not pay attention to the sexual organ Microbrachius dicki. Just needed to take a closer look at the fossils of fish, which was done by John Long, a professor of Australian University Finders studying a collection of the Technological University of Tallinn, Estonia.

 

According to Long, due to such anatomical features of the fish could not have sex in the classic missionary position, and doing it in a position side by side, as in dance.

 

The discovery shows that vertebrates lost and returned to the ability to deliver sperm into the female many times throughout history. So close descendants Microbrachius clearly possessed bodies for external fertilization (insemination and embryo development occurs in the water).
