ALIEN: XENOMORPH -BIOLOGY EXPLAINED

 ALIEN: XENOMORPH -BIOLOGY EXPLAINED

 Almost everyone has seen the movie Alien, which was released in the year 1979. In this movie, directed by Ridley Scott, he deviated from the traditional Alien concept seen in the cinema and showed the aliens as a part of destructive deadly parasitic creatures. His design is still popular all over the world today.  What is going to be explained is about the mortal Aliens that everyone has seen in movies, games and comics and their biological background.

 You must know by now that these dangerous species are called Alien but they are called Xenomorph. Some of you may know about this by now, I will say for those who don't know. The word Xenomorph is a combination of two Greek words.  The meaning of Xenos in Greek is "stranger" or "foreigner". And if we take the meaning of Morph, it shows the meaning of "species" or "life". So if we take the meaning of the word Xenomorph, it means "alien species" or "alien species".  Such an idea is taken.

 So when we talk about the main purpose of this Xenomorph, there is something special about it. Their genetic purpose is to spread their own species as much as possible. From the moment they are born, they do everything to live, in short, they even eat their prey because of their strong desire to breed their own species.  Because of that, as everyone has seen by now, the Xenomorphs try to kill and prey on every enemy they meet. Meanwhile, they destroy those who threaten their Xenomorph species.  So, if you could separate and understand what was said clearly, I think you would understand why these Xenomorphs are behaving so violently.☠️✌️

 And by now you must have seen how strong the Xenomorph's cover is. This cover, which a Xenomorph is born with, is made of a silicon-based chemical substance and is located on the surface of a Xenomorph's body as a strong cover.  Resilient. Also, apart from large explosions, small explosions or shocks will not damage this cover, and it is very difficult to damage this Xenomorph cover with guns that emit small bullets.  The body is positioned like this. That's why stopping this creature becomes a very difficult task. So, along with the said cover, there are several main ways that the Xenomorph can use to deliver its deadly blows.☠️

 Speaking of which, everyone has seen sharp teeth on the outside of a Xenomorph's mouth. But this creature's main deadly attack is the teeth inside its mouth. Some people think that these teeth are the tip of a tongue inside the Xenomorph's mouth.  .And another idea is that these are the teeth inside their mouths. But if you look closely, the Xenomorphs use these as 'jaws'. So, the teeth inside the jaws of a Xenomorph's mouth are their main deadly attack.  And because it has a stronger 'jaw', it has the ability to break even through things like plastic, iron or other metals.

 By now, many people know that the other method of using Xenomorph in an attack is to attack with the pointed part at the end of the tail. This pointed part is very special. If the reason is, everyone must know and have seen the sharpness of surgical tips or knives.

 This is designed in such a way that it is sharp enough to be able to make a cut even with a small force. This pointed part, which is located in a V shape behind a Xenomorph's tail, has also been given that sharp quality genetically. Also, this pointed part is usually about 2 feet in size in a normal grown Xenomorph.  It is located in the body. The other important thing is that this is a strong tip covered by the cover mentioned earlier. 🗡️ Then you can guess how much pain this attack can inflict on them.

 There is another important thing. It goes without saying that instead of blood, Xenomorphs have acid with a very high level of effect. But many people think that Xenomorphs do not know this. The truth is that they know this.  But these creatures have a sense of the effect that this acid can have on an opponent. That's why Xenomorphs sometimes use the acid in their body for their attacks. They use it from a wound in the body or the mouth.  For example, in the first Alien Vs Predator movie, those who have watched a Xenomorph use the acid from its injured tail against a Predator who is coming to hunt them.

 Also, in the movie Alien Resurrection, a Xenomorph is shown attacking a human with acid through its mouth. So it can be said that it is clearly seen in these places that a Xenomorph is able to kill or injure an opponent with this attack.

 If you consider both the biological purpose they have got with these things, a Xenomorph can be said to be a Killing Machine.☠️⚰️

 So far we have talked about the purpose, attacks and template of the Xenomorph species.  Next, the life cycle of this invasive species will be described.

 (⚠️️Here, the life cycle of the Original Xenomorph is explained. So don't confuse it with hybrid Xenomorphs like Predalien.✌️)

 For those of you reading here, I want to point out something surprising and important.

 Almost every known animal that we have heard of has a life cycle. Most of them (including humans) have only a few stages. Here too, amphibians and insect species have to go through certain stages in some places. For example, a butterfly: after being a caterpillar for some time, it forms a cell at the appointed time.  After leaving, it is possible to become a butterfly. Here the caterpillar and the butterfly are not the same insect, but an organism. That said, the caterpillar inside the cell will become a butterfly one day.  It is after the action and contribution of two people.

 You will understand how it is when you read the description below.

 The main parts of the Xenomorph life cycle are as follows.👇

        Ovomorphs (a species)🥚

                           ⬇️

        Facehuggers (a species)🦑

                           ⬇️

                  Chestburster🪱

                           ⬇️

           A New Born Xenomorph

 💀 Ovomorphs 🥚

 Many people think that these Ovomorphs, which are shaped like an egg that many people have seen in Alien stories, are eggs. But the true story is that this is a separate organism. And this is the first organism that is in this life cycle and contributes to it.  They can feel vibrations from a distance. (Even if it's a sound of footsteps or a small subtle vibration from anywhere). What an Ovomorph does is to wait for a vibration as mentioned before and while absorbing the vibrations, it keeps the Facehugger waiting inside it for a host (Host).  Staying. (This Ovomorph can keep a Facehugger inside him for more than 10,000 years without any nutrition until he receives a shock) Also, as soon as he realizes that a host has come 🚻 from that said shock, he sends a signal to the Facehugger inside him.  Ovomorph opens the portal at the top for his Facehugger to exit.  (When you come close, you will see four parts apart from the top when this happens) After that, as soon as the Facehugger comes out, this Ovomorph's life will be lost. Because this Ovomorph can only be activated once. And due to their genetic makeup, they will die as soon as it is activated.

   

 💀 Facehugger 🦑

 After being freed from the Ovomorph it was holding, the Facehugger captures the host and embeds an embryo in the respective host through the mouth of the host.

 💀 Chestburster 🪱

 The embryo implanted in the Facehugger host mixes some parts of the respective host's DNA and grows in the host until it becomes a Chestburster in a short period of time. After that, it bursts out near the host's chest or abdomen with an internal pressure and a push that everyone has seen.  A small Chestburster is born.

 💀 A New Born Xenomorph

 The Chestburster that is born (dark) usually chooses a place with a cave or a similar environment and waits until it grows up. So, within hours, this Chestburster will eventually become a full-grown Xenomorph.

 This is how the life cycle of a Xenomorph is born.

 So I think I was able to understand why the life cycle of these creatures is amazing.

 Also, when talking about these Xenomorphs, you can see several types of Xenomorphs that are different from each other. These types, which are mainly among the Original Xenomorphs, contribute to their biological purpose in a different manner and in a different way.  The main types are:

 ▪️Drones

 ▪Warriors

 ▪️Runners

 ▪️ Praetorian

 ⚜️The queen

   Drones

 This type of drone is the most basic and the most commonly seen type of Xenomorph.  They are the most loyal type to the Xenomorph Queen. The duty of the drones is to find strong and suitable hosts for the Ovomorphs that produce the Xenomorph Queen. Also, these drone type Xenomorphs are assigned to construct the hives to trap the Ovomorphs.  Also, these Drones are sent to patrol in an environment where there are a large number of Xenomorphs. Warriors, another category of Xenomorphs, always stay nearby while obeying the Queen's orders, but the Drones are allowed to travel in other areas according to their own decision and choice.  Another important thing is that Xenomorphs usually move very patiently and silently, and are a type of creatures that hunt prey. Meanwhile, the Xenomorph Drones are patient and attack very quietly and systematically. The way you can recognize a Xenomorph Drone is that the top of their head is flat and smooth.  Also, in the first movie Alien released in 1979, there is a drone of this type.

    Warriors

 After the drones, you can see the Warriors the most. They breed mostly according to the needs of the Xenomorph Queen. Their main role is to protect the Xenomorph Queen and the Ovomorphs. And the Warriors obey the Queen's orders and mostly come out in herds. Xenomorph Warrior  When a person is alone, they do not go to attack at once. Instead, they follow the prey silently. However, when they are in a herd, they protect and attack in a circle.

 Also, when a swarm of Warriors surround and attack at once, they attack more severely than a swarm of Drones. You can see that the Xenomorph Warriors have curls on their heads. This is the characteristic that can identify them. Also, in the movie Aliens (1986) and in the movie Alien Vs Predator: Requim, we have this  It should also be remembered that the said Warrior Xenomorph can be taken care of.

    Runners

 This species is a rare but special type of Xenomorph. A Runner is born from a Chestburster that grows using a mammal or four-legged animal as a host. Runners are smaller than other Xenomorphs and slightly different in shape. They use both front legs to move.  That means they move on all fours) and a Runner is much faster than Drones and Warriors and behaves very violently and fiercely when attacking a victim. If you want to understand, a human or any other animal that is victimized by a Runner is in more pain than when caught by a Xenomorph of the Drone, Warrior type.  You have to suffer and die. In the movie Alien 3, you will see a runner type Xenomorph.

    Praetorian🛡️⚔️

 This type is a bit special. Because the Praetorians are larger than the two types of Drones and Warriors mentioned earlier. The main tasks of the Praetorians are to protect the roads leading to the area where the Xenomorph Queen is and to protect the Queen. As mentioned above, the Warriors also protect the Queen.  They are sent to hunt prey in the areas or on pursuits. But the Praetorians never leave the area where the queen is. Also, after the queen, the Praetorians are considered to be the largest and strongest type among the Xenomorphs. This Xenomorph type has not been shown in the movies yet.  Game players will meet these Praetorians in the Alien Vs Predator Game Series.

⚜️The Queen

 You must have seen by now that Xenomorph Queen is the most important and the leader among Xenomorphs.

 The Xenomorph Queen is more intelligent than all their other types. And the main purpose and duty of the Queen is to breed and spread as many Ovomorphs as possible and to protect them. The other thing is that a Xenomorph Queen cannot be created in a host by an ordinary Facehugger. This Royal  There is a special type of creature called Facehugger. A Royal Facehugger is a little bigger and blacker than the normal Facehuggers we see. Also, a Queen takes more time to feed from the host than a normal Chestburster. Just like in the movie Aliens released in 1986.  A Xenomorph Queen can also be seen in the movie Alien Resurrection.

 These are the main types seen among the Xenomorphs, and the Predalien types that you have seen are formed by using a Predator as a host.

 They are not included in the Original Xenomorph category, because they are considered separate Hybrid Xenomorphs.

 When a Predalien is born and they start breeding Xenomorphs, the Xenomorph life cycle changes from the original Xenomorph life cycle.
