Turns the frogs gay
GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets. As Hayes later discovered, many atrazine-contaminated ponds in the Midwest contain native leopard frogs with the same abnormalities. Image Downloads. Welcome to Citron, a cutting-edge Nintendo Homebrew emulator designed to deliver an optimized experience for playing your favorite games and exploring new ones. Hayes now is trying to determine how the abnormalities affect the frogs' ability to produce offspring.
Most notably, American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones cited research on the effects of atrazine on frogs, which can induce spontaneous sex change or hermaphroditism, to claim that the U.S. government was "putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin’ frogs gay" as part of a "chemical warfare operation" to increase homosexuality and. In a rant that has since become a meme and a line of t-shirts, Jones said he didn't like the government "putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin' frogs gay." "The majority of.
Advanced real-time screen translator for games, hardcoded subtitles in videos, static text and etc. Even with today's limits, levels of 40 ppb atrazine have been measured in rain and spring water in parts of the Midwest, while atrazine in agricultural runoff can be present at several parts per million.
The blatant absurdity of this conspiracy theory makes it one of the most widely mocked and memed of Jones’ outbursts (though one study showed that pesticides can turn male frogs to females, this is very different from an active government plan to make frogs homosexual). More than million people use GitHub to discover, fork, and contribute to over million projects.
Citron is a high . The herbicide atrazine, one of the world's most widely used pesticides, screws up the sex lives of adult male frogs, emasculating three-quarters of them and turning one in 10 into females, according to a new study by UC Berkeley's Tyrone Hayes. The herbicide also contaminates drinking water supplies in many communities in the Midwest, leading some environmental groups to voice concern about its effect on children, infants and the fetus.

Chemicals in the water are turning the (frigging) frogs gay. Most notably, American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones cited research on the effects of atrazine on frogs, which can induce spontaneous sex change or hermaphroditism, to claim that the U.S. government was "putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin’ frogs gay" as part of a "chemical warfare operation" to increase homosexuality and.
- Danily07/Translumo. The herbicide also lowers levels of the male hormone testosterone in sexually mature male frogs by a factor of 10, to levels lower than those in normal female frogs. Hayes found hermaphroditism in frogs at levels as low as 0. To date, atrazine's effects on mammals and amphibians have been tested only at large doses, not at doses commonly found in the environment. status-menus: Games that . GitHub is where people build software.
The changes he found in the gonads were not discovered with the traditional high-dose atrazine experiments used in the past. Popular weed killer demasculinizes frogs, disrupts their sexual development, UC Berkeley study shows 04 April By Robert Sanders, Media Relations. Hayes, associate professor of integrative biology, and his colleagues report that atrazine at levels often found in the environment demasculinizes tadpoles and turns them into hermaphrodites - creatures with both male and female sexual characteristics.
It is unclear whether these abnormalities lead to reduced fertility. Press Releases. Alex Jones "Turning the Freaking Frogs Gay" Terrance Giles K subscribers Subscribed. A restricted herbicide, atrazine is used primarily on crops, not around the home, and can be purchased and applied only by certified applicators.
The herbicide atrazine, one of the world's most widely used pesticides, screws up the sex lives of adult male frogs, emasculating three-quarters of them and turning one in 10 into females, according to a new study by UC Berkeley's Tyrone Hayes. shadPS4 Game Compatibility status-playable: Games that can be played without any major issue. In addition, microscopic examination of the internal organs of the frogs is required to detect the hidden effects from low-dose exposure.
Because the herbicide has been in use for 40 years in some 80 countries, its effect on sexual development in male frogs could be one of many factors in the global decline of amphibians, he added. A study Kennedy discussed on multiple podcast episodes exposed male African clawed frogs to atrazine in a lab, castrating 75% of the male frogs and turning one in 10 males into females. The findings come at a time when the EPA is re-evaluating allowable levels of atrazine in drinking water, which stand today at 3 parts per billion ppb , and has drafted new criteria for the protection of aquatic life, limiting four-day average exposures to 12 ppb.
France, Germany, Italy, Sweden and Norway are among countries that have banned the use of atrazine. status-ingame: Games that can reach gameplay but have issues. Games on GitHub. The frog has become a hermaphrodite, that is, it has both male testes and female ovaries sex organs. High-resolution image available for download.
