Design features

The mole, and especially the star-nosed mole, are endowed with intricately complex features that reflect an Intelligent Designer.

Coral reefs are only thousands of years old, not millions.

Evolution, design, box jellyfish, eyes, navigation, terrestrial, Snells window Evolutionists are surprised at the box jellyfish eyes, able to see terrestrial (i.e. above-water) navigational cues

Bat sonar (echolocation), flight, and other features strongly points to design (creation), not evolution, as explaining bats origin. The fossil record is no help to evolutionists, either.

Design features such as the birth process, along with the available fossil evidence, point to kangaroos having been created, not evolved.

The butterfly’s jerky fluttering flight is not ‘primitive’ or inefficient, but rather displays a whole range of aerodynamic mechanisms which generate more lift than simple flapping.

Biomimetics: engineers strive to copy snail locomotion, building a ‘Robosnail’ with a rubbery ‘foot’ to travel on a layer of slime.

Engineers study woodpecker elastic beak, hyoid, spongy bone, skull bone with cerebrospinal fluid, which enable the woodpeckers head to withstand >1200 g, to build new shock absorption technology.

The fine nanorod structure of the mantis shrimp eyes allow it to rotate the polarization across the spectrum. This could help DVD players to process much more information.

How do squid match their surroundings when they are colourblind? Solution has inspired designers of a camouflaging material.

Is our eye harmed by backward wiring? No! Not only is it necessary, but eyes have a fibre optic plate to guide light through the nerve net to receptors.

Tardigrades and a host of other extremophiles, being ‘over-engineered’ for any Earth environment, pose a very clear difficulty for evolutionary theory.

Even when a large leaf’s major water-conducting veins are severed by roost-making bats, the few remaining conducting elements can still provide enough water to the leaf—an example of over-engineering.

Liaoconodon hui is a new supposed transitional form between reptiles and modern mammals because of its unique ear bone morphology, but there are numerous problems with this designation.

Marine bacterium has seven flagellar motors bundled into one, with interlocking fibrils acting as gears, allowing it to swim 10 times faster than most.

Firefly lenses have fine structure allowing optimal light transmission. LED lenses inspired by that structure similarly allow more light transmission.
