It appears that some asexual species on earth are immortal like hydras

As I started thinking more about this it occurred to me that asexuality appears to have something to do with immortality (at least in Hydras) where they regenerate but never die in the wilds.

So, there might be something about sexual reproduction in any species that causes death eventually. Whereas in some species without sexual reproduction immortality might be possible.

This just occurred to me as I thought more about this.

Why would this be true?

Possibly because sexual congress in any species often results in the death of one or both mates because of fighting between males or females in order to successfully mate. However, this fighting also allows for the healthier mates either male or female to survive to be able to mate.

This also allows for the evolution of the species where only the best fighters who might also be the more intelligent and innovative of their species will survive. Also, the more intense of their species also might be able to fend off predators of their young as well which would also encourage their young to grow up and mate and have other young.

So, it is my thought that sexual reproduction is going to increase intelligence through evolution of a species and it also might result in physically stronger and more coordinated members of that species who might become more intelligent over time.

However, this pits evolution against immortality in any species too.

In other words sexual congress might create stronger and more intelligent individuals of every species while causing their eventual deaths as well as opposed to immortality in something like a Hydra which might not be able to evolve because of asexual reproduction.

This is a hypothesis of mine at present but also could eventually become a theory or even a law with more evidence.

Question: Could the transference to an asexual organism in humans around 70 to 90 years of age result in potential immortality?

Possibly.

I'm asking a question here but I'm not sure how one would go about their transition into asexual immortality after a lifetime of sexuality, having children etc.

In some ways many people convert to an asexual existence simply because their mate dies or goes away. And is it necessary to give up sexuality to become immortal?

I'm thinking that this is something worth giving more thought to regarding the potential immortality of the human race.

So, does the hydra have something to share with humanity in regard to potential physical immortality regarding human beings? Possibly.

So, the goal likely would be to replicate the regeneration capacities of a hydra in humans to begin the "infinite regeneration process" leading to human immortality here on earth.
