Is it possible to have DNA mutations to be like the X-men (sort of?) I mean, if you have the mutation, theoretically it could result in extra speed or better strength right?

Question

anonymous · Answer

as long as you respect the rules of physics ;-)
but yes a mutation resulting in higher strength or speed is one of the basis of evolution (together with natural selection of of fitter)

Hmm, okay, but does that mean, we could have some of the more slightly stretched powers? Such as slight transformation ability, or maybe magnetic control?

anonymous · Answer

not sure what you mean by transformation ability (I am afraid to have very little competences in Xmen).
for magnetic control the only thing I can think of is the ability to sense magnetic field that some birds have (they use it to migrate) but I can't see how you would generate enough power to control anything.

By transformation I mean, maybe change eye color, hair color or possible state of matter change?

anonymous · Answer

for color you have the example of the chameleon. So that is possible.
for state of matter not sure how you would get it. but you can use a liquid to make an organ very strong using osmosis : think of the strength of plants that can find their way through concrete (to keep on a politically correct example).

Hmm, okay then, thank you.
