I agree. this is so ridiculous. Tooneyman go breed with a Batarian and tell me how it works out for you.

[Aedan_Cousland]

No, they are completely different species.

Even the Asari don't really reproduce with other species. The act of mating could be a trigger for reproduction, but the child gets it's genetic makeup entirely from the mother.

I still can't explain how the Asari mind meld works into reproduction. Okay so it randomizes DNA, your DNA code isn't known by your nervous systems electrical impulses so how can the swapping of electricity between an Asari and a non-Asari randomize DNA in a meaningful way?



Unless of course it's all a bunch of mystical bullcrap Asari have made up and believe without question, when in reality the DNA randomization is nothing more then a few markers being turned on or off and is utterly random without any input from the "father".



Also, I don't understand why it would be weird for Turians to lay eggs? In fact I would have to assume Salarians lay eggs, and I would argue that Krogan lay internal eggs like some species of Sharks. So it's not quite unprecedented.

This. Its just some nonsense they came up with. Even Liara iirc says its just conventional thinking or something along those lines.

I heard Humans and Batarians can interbreed

Neat, do they look like the newborn from Alien Resurrection?

Asari repsoduction is the big BS just like half-breeds. Equally stupid.

Batarian-human hybrid? That's some serious nightmare fuel.
I believe devs turned Turians more mammalian since Garrus romance:whistle:

I blame Star Trek, where everyone can have a baby with anything.

Serriously, the ST writers know less then nothing about science, they also think it's possible to reach infinite speed.

They got round that part of the ST interbreeding problem with a ancient race of aliens that spread thier own DNA accross the galaxy, becuase they was dying out and wished for thier DNA to continue on in other races.

I'm guessing the OP is that turian in the bar on Ilium with chatty quarian girl.

I hate to break this to you, buddy, but you've been friendzoned.

Yeah no kidding. That Turian is seriously SOL there.

Could humans and shimps breed together?

Lies, they impregnate by sifting their fingers through sand. Male or Female may be the host for their offspring.

You watched to much enterprise. lol.

Why has this thread lasted more than one day? you know what? screw you all imma mind**** you with what a quarian/turian hybrid would look like.

I knew it!

Yes their conversation is probably what started this though and its definitely quite relavent to ask the question. I mean it really makes you think what are the possibilities of the ME universe. Whether its a quarian/turian hybrid.
As for batarian human. I guarantee you would breed with one. I mean who doesn't want an extra set of eyes. This would make sniper shooting awesome.   I mean you have for sets of eyes. I only problem is the whole stooge eye poke.

Could a human and a monkey breed together? No. So how could two completely different species from different worlds breed together? They couldn't.

A human and monkey (or at least another ape, like a chimpanzee) probably could interbreed - the same ways horses and donkeys can, to produce mules. However, most pregnancies will spontaneously be aborted by the mother's body as unviable, often before she even knows she is pregnant (This happens ALL the time, btw - Mother Nature doesn't do a very good job of producing viable offspring, and ruthlessly eliminates those she deems unworthy). Any offspring that do survive will almost certainly be sterile, the way mules are.

I suppose the only reason we don't have human-chimp hybrids is that there aren't enough people who are into chimps.

Also, sex with other apes is a bit dangerous, since the average female chimpanzee is stronger than a pro wrestler, and males are even worse. I don't think you want to be near one of those in the throes of passion...

1st the Asari, reproduce randomizing DNA. I would have to assume, bioware took the idea from recent theories on birds and bears. Which starts of that memory is written into your DNA as you get older....kind a like Assassin's Creed.

How can an animal who never been somewhere know where the breeding grounds are?

What exactly is instinct? Subconcious thought instigated by hidden genes that have survived through natural selection or just every creatures urge to survive.

From there make your own imagination.

personally I think with Bioware imaginations they made asaris able to read DNA and blend some of the hidden traits from the other species.

Hence why asaris you meet and hear about their fathers show that their personalities closely resemble the "father" and since most "fathers" die long before they can share common things with their child.


2nd. We don't know anything on Turian biology when it comes to reproduction. Or at least I haven't come across it, if there is some sorry and dont regard this 2nd point

salarians lay eggs, I believe, krogans have testicles, which leads me to believe they are mammals.

Like Rats, for their small bodies they have incredibly large nuts.

But when it comes to krogans and turians we dont know.

I'm sorry the half elves are the shizz and I think a half turian and half quarian would be interesting to say the least, but what if a human actually impregnanted an asari. The reason I say this is because asari are genetically closer to humans then any other speices besides the batarians who also have a human like body structure.

Convergent evolution.

Asari can get impregnated by a human, however without accepting his sex cells. Instead, asari does that stupid mind-meld ****.

Biioware could bull**** you on how an mass effect drive can work, but they couldn't write-in a believable fake biology.

no I'm not going to go dig up a link but.

you DO realize that women CAN have kids without a male...it will just always be a girl....

hmm..sounds like Asari to me...and considering what they wrote about Asari mental "powers" it's not that far fetched for them to grab traits from another species..nor for them to have children in such a way.

look it up if you don't believe me..scientists found this out....I'm not wasting my time looking for it for you...so whatever.

No but Turians could eat Quarians.

But could a Quarian drink a liquefied Turian on a dare and still come out of it looking pretty?
