Again, we need to be more cautious with our definition: vertical evolution at the animal level implies that two members of the same species, of the opposite sexes, mate, and that during this mating process, one sex cell from each parent merges with the other to form a fertilized cell, from whereupon an embryo develops. Since it mostly only involves the passing on or recombining of existing genes, I prefer to call this a form of horizontal evolution contrary to regarding this as part of the process of individual variation that occurs because of vertical genetic recombinations without there actually being vertical evolution (because no species evolves or goes extinct).	./cache/cord-016062-h4vjkufn.txt	./txt/cord-016062-h4vjkufn.txt
