49:2.9 It is quite impossible for you to [[envisage]] the [[environment]] which prevails during the [[Primitive|early]] [[ages]] of some worlds. These unusual conditions make it [[necessary]] for the [[evolving]] [[animal]] life to remain in its [[marine]] [[nursery]] [[habitat]] for longer periods than on those [[planets]] which very early provide a [[hospitable]] [[land]]-and-[[atmosphere]] [[environment]]. Conversely, on some worlds of the ''superbreathers'', when the [[planet]] is not too large, it is sometimes expedient to provide for a [[mortal]] [[type]] which can readily negotiate [[atmospheric]] passage. These air [[navigators]] sometimes [[intervene]] between the [[water]] and [[land]] [[groups]], and they always live in a [[measure]] upon the ground, [[eventually]] evolving into [[land]] dwellers. But on some worlds, for [[ages]] they continue to fly even after they have become [[land]]-[[type]] [[beings]].

49:2.10 It is both [[amazing]] and [[Humor|amusing]] to [[observe]] the early [[civilization]] of a [[primitive]] [[race]] of [[human beings]] taking shape, in one case, in the [[air]] and treetops and, in another, midst the shallow [[waters]] of sheltered tropic basins, as well as on the bottom, sides, and shores of these [[marine]] [[gardens]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_62 dawn races] of such extraordinary [[spheres]]. Even on [[Urantia]] there was a long age during which [[primitive]] man preserved himself and advanced his primitive [[civilization]] by living for the most part in the treetops as did his earlier [[arboreal]] [[ancestors]]. And on [[Urantia]] you still have a group of diminutive [[mammals]] (the [http://www.wikipedia.org/Bat bat] [[family]]) that are [[air]] [[navigators]], and your [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seals seals] and [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whales whales], of [[marine]] [[habitat]], are also of the [[Mammal|mammalian]] order.

49:2.11 In [[Satania]], of the ''elemental types'', seven per cent are [[water]], ten per cent [[air]], seventy per cent [[land]], and thirteen per cent combined land-and-air types. But these [[modifications]] of early [[intelligent]] [[creatures]] are neither [[human]] [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishes fishes] nor human [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birds birds]. They are of the [[human]] and prehuman types, neither superfishes nor [[glorified]] birds but distinctly [[mortal]].

49:2.16 Of the [[electric]] [[groupings]] of [[mortal]] life, almost twenty-three per cent belong to class number four, the [[Urantia]] [[type]] of [[existence]]. These [[types]] are [[distributed]] as follows: number 1, one per cent; number 2, two per cent; number 3, five per cent; number 4, twenty-three per cent; number 5, twenty-seven per cent; number 6, twenty-four per cent; number 7, eight per cent; number 8, five per cent; number 9, three per cent; number 10, two per cent—in whole percentages.

49:2.17 6. ''The energizing types''. Not all worlds are alike in the [[manner]] of taking in [[energy]]. Not all inhabited worlds have an [[atmospheric]] [[ocean]] suited to [[respiratory]] exchange of [[gases]], such as is present on [[Urantia]]. During the earlier and the later [[stages]] of many [[planets]], [[beings]] of your present order could not exist; and when the [[respiratory]] [[factors]] of a [[planet]] are very high or very low, but when all other prerequisites to [[intelligent]] life are adequate, the [[Life Carriers]] often [[establish]] on such worlds a [[modified]] [[form]] of [[mortal]] [[existence]], [[beings]] who are competent to [[effect]] their life-[[process]] exchanges directly by means of [[light]]-[[energy]] and the firsthand [[power]] [[transmutations]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:4._THE_MASTER_PHYSICAL_CONTROLLERS Master Physical Controllers].

49:2.18 There are six [[differing]] [[types]] of [[animal]] and [[mortal]] [[nutrition]]: The ''subbreathers'' employ the first type of [[nutrition]], the [[marine]] dwellers the second, the mid-breathers the third, as on [[Urantia]]. The ''superbreathers'' employ the fourth type of [[energy]] intake, while the ''nonbreathers'' utilize the fifth order of [[nutrition]] and [[energy]]. The sixth [[technique]] of energizing is [[limited]] to the [[midway creatures]].

49:2.19 7. ''The unnamed types''. There are numerous additional [[physical]] variations in [[planetary]] life, but all of these [[differences]] are wholly matters of anatomica] [[modification]], physiologic differentiation, and electrochemical [[adjustment]]. Such distinctions do not concern the [[intellectual]] or the [[spiritual]] life.
