here's one way the walking dead could happen in real life. to start our zombie thought experiment, we need to make some basic assumptions. first, we're ignoring all supernatural zombie origins. zombie apocalypse wallpapers. we're also going to set aside space radiation, mysterious comets, or russian satellites. our focus will be narrowed to biological origins a zombie contagion. of course, there are many different zombie scenarios in books and film, and no one theory is going to cover all of them perfectly. the first aspect of human zombification we need to tackle is basic zombie physiology. in virtually every zombie scenario, zombies are able to function despite increasing levels of physical deterioration due to injury or decomposition.
there has to be some mechanism for transmitting neural impulses from the brain to various body parts, and for providing energy to muscles so they can keep operating. zombie apocalypse wallpapers. the most common science fictional explanation for zombie outbreaks is a virus but viruses and bacterial infections are not known for building large new physical structures within the body. zombie apocalypse wallpapers. so let's count viruses out. instead, the need for a mechanism to activate deteriorating body parts actually provides the cornerstone of what is, in my opinion, the strongest theory: fungal infection. we know that fungi can infect humans. we also know that fungal networks exist in most of the world's forests. these mycorrhizal networks have a symbiotic relationship with trees and other plants in the forest, exchanging nutrients for mutual benefit. zombie apocalypse wallpapers. these networks can be quite large, and there are studies that demonstrate the potential for chemical signals to be transmitted from one plant to another via the mycorrhizal network. that, in turn, means that fungal filaments could perform both vascular and neural functions within a corpse.
