A Jordanian scientist refutes scientists' theories about the origin of flowers. Scientist Abbas Haddadin, who discovered Jordanian amber and specializes in its flower and insect contents, dating back 140 million years, the oldest amber in the world, discovered ten different types of flowers and plants in the amber. Haddadin says that flowers first appeared on land, not in water, as scientists say. اضافة اعلان Flowers diversified due to pollination by bees, which appeared on land 140 million years ago. A bee was found in Jordanian amber. He refutes the theory that flowers first appeared in freshwater basins, not on land 130 million years ago, as American scientist David Delcher says. Flowers were covered in water throughout their life cycle and had no roots. Pollination took place underwater without insects. Each flower contained a single seed, male or female, which fell into the water and grew. Contrary to this, Haddadin found a flower with roots in Jordanian amber, as in one of the pictures. The pictures show ten types of plant flowers found in Jordanian amber. Flowers on land under gymnosperm forests in Jordan 140 million years ago. If we look at pictures of these flowers, we find that they resemble the flowers of present-day plants. Scientists say that there are no samples that we can rely on in the study except for a few, but the flower samples in the Jordanian amber at Haddadin have clarified many things about flowering plants and may be the solution.

World's oldest Ant discovered in Jordanian Amber. - Jordan News
World's oldest Ant discovered in Jordanian Amber. 140-million-year-old ant discovered in Jordanian amber, the oldest ant in the world, was discovered by Abbas Haddadin. Scientists say that ants evolved from a species of wasp 100 million years ago, because they discovered a 100-million-year-old ant in Myanmar amber, which was written about by the scientist George Poyner. اضافة اعلان However, researcher Abbas Haddadin discovered an ant in Jordanian amber that was 140 million years old. Thus, the evolution of ants from wasps occurred 150 million years ago, according to Haddadin. Hymenoptera also evolved from each other, so Haddadin found 11 species of wasps in Jordanian amber that are 140 million years old. He will write about them with pictures. The picture shows the Jordanian ant, 140 million years old.
