"suited to detecting molecules of specific species"
Don't they mean specimens?
I havent RTFA, but they mean "molecules of specific species" in the sense of metals being different from non-metals or transistion elements,
so they are referring to specific species in that sense, its just an expression:P
That's an interesting idea. Do different words that mean the same in different languages light up the same areas of the brain when a person thinks about it? Would a Spanish person who is told to think of "coche", have a similar brain scan of an English person told to think of "car"? pr0n is a universal word and it lights up the same things for everyone

It is a common thought process that a Virus is something that is primitive, but one might equally argue that it is a super specialized entity which has removed everything else (cellular organelles like ribosomes etc...) to fit in its environment.
also, if we are to talk about the most evolved, it would probably be bacteria - since in evolution it is more important to adapt faster to ones surroundings (which are dynamic).
We humans as a species who are doomed to die (or evolve into something lot more different than what we are, phenotypically and genotypically), victims of our own success!
