It might be the other way around. Were to the proteins responsible source from? Head or body.
Like that experiment where they sew a young and old mouse together as a kind of Siamese twin.

Actually... Remember that experiment where they sew the mice together. The question may be, are these GDF-11 proteins made in the head.

Now they just need to sell off their "Entertainment division" and become an electronics company again.
The problem here is that, the Bit Torrent trackers insert IP numbers randomly and non randomly, that are not actually connected. These people are then logged as copyright infringes, despite having nothing to do with the tracker. This is not hard to do and does muddy the waters for the know nothing CSI monkeys who think that this is hard evidence of liability or infringement.

The problem is, every time someone forgets to write down a theorem, they have to repeat and entire year of school.

The difference is the ideas. The idea of America is being lost. What is leftover when that is gone is just another place. May as well be called just Homeland. The ideas that are traditionally associated with America are not espoused by those that use the term Homeland.
This has very little to do with America. It has lot to do with the Homeland which is a new thing.
Wouldn't that have been noticed since we now have records from places like China, Japan, India, Persia... Nothing to see here. Just another crackpot.
In philosophy all things are cherry cheese cake. That's why we use a use an actually useful subset of philosophy called logic.
Anything that's red is cherry cheese cake and is delicious. Any thing that's Delicious can be eaten. Things that can be eaten that are not edible are eaten by looking at them and appreciating there deliciousness and feeding the soul.
You can't prove a negative is not a rule of logic. Go back to school.
Can you prove 2+2 is not equal to 58.
No you can't prove a negative.
Assume 2+2= 58
2= 1+1
1+1+1+1= count them =4
4=58
initial assumption is false
2+2 is in fact not equal to 58 negative proved. This is a counter example to the statement "You can't prove a negative"
"You can't prove a negative" is false
-------
Yes you can make general statements that are true.
"All general statements are false" is not a rule of logic. Go back to school.
"2+2 is always equal to 4". Is a general statement.
2=1+1
1+1+1+1=count them =4
4=4 true
The particular general statement "2+2 is always equal to 4" is true. "2+2 is always equal to 4" is a counter example to "All general statements are false".
"All general statements are false" is, in fact, its self false.
With any intelligent socially interacting species, I suspect, such evolutionarily advantageous features are sure to be an exaggerated part of the species anatomy. It's the non-rare boob theory of exobiology.
Don't despair, you mentioned several nutrient sharing methods that animals on earth have. An enlarged gland that secretes nutrient solution has many advantages and may be common in the universe. They may have variation in location, number and type, but I'm sure there are analogues on alien species. That is, if we ever could observe them.
