Embryo
It's speculated the host's body begins to grow the Embryo due to the Xenomorph's altering of the host's DNA. The Embryo grows in the chest cavity just behind the host's sternum for protection, but unfortunately this means a very painful death for the host. Speculation also suggest the Embryo uses some of the host's ingested nutrients causing the host to feel hungry upon regaining consciousness. The Embryo introduces a chemical into the host's digestive system to keep other Xenomorphs from damaging the host. It's also known that a host will experience a slight fever after removal of a Facehugger as their immune systems reacts to the foreign tissue but due to the altering of the host's DNA the Embryo is able to develop unharmed.
The time it takes for an Embryo to develop is seventeen to twenty-four hours, and with a Queen Embryo the time is more than twenty-four hours which is speculated to be because of the Queen's more complicated structure. On the U.S.M. Auriga the Embryos took only two to four hours to develop with a Queen Embryo taking only eight to twelve hours for development which was due to the mixture of human and Alien DNA. If a host dies with an Embryo inside him this doesn't necessarily mean the Embryo will die too because there's no evidence to suggest that it's tied into the host's main systems. The life span of an Embryo has yet to be determined
heres a thought about the HUGGERS
During an instance where the potential host is either cocooned into the Xenomorph hive walls, or is in some other way incapacitated, the Facehugger has been recorded crawling from the egg, as opposed to leaping from the egg. In this means of acquiring a host the Facehugger actually takes on the characteristics of a passive creature: it's actions are slower, and seem to be executed with a certain degree of care - as if to avoid harming the potential host
Speculatively, within the hive, the Facehugger may be responding to a pheromone trace that has been excreted by the adult Xenomorph responsible for the cocooning of the host. Such a pheromone trace would serve a duel purpose: to be used as a means of locating the host when returning with an egg from the egg chamber (employed by an adult Xenomorph), and to act as a "beacon" for the Facehugger once the egg is open. This would account for the larva's apparent "nonchalance" in settling on a host so as to begin the process of depositing the embryo. After depositing the Alien embryo, the Facehugger departs from the host, generally dying within a short distance.
now chestbursters
Strangely enough the Chestburster does not feed off the dead host's body. A factual reason for this behavior has yet to be determined. I speculate that the Alien instinctively flees the host on account of its vulnerable state, attempting to find a secure location in which to molt into the adult. What the Chestburster eats during the maturation process is unknown. It is known that the Xenomorph will molt its shell numerous times in achieving the size of a fully developed Alien
The chestburster has an astonishing metabolism rate that is significantly higher than at any other point in the life cycle. Based off of the available information, it takes roughly two to three hours for the Alien to reach its full size, an estimated two meters in vertical height
I think its odd since the imprednation and growing takes so long
and drones
The Adult Xenomorph is able to spit a concentrated ray of venom toward a potential host that can dissolve flesh and enter their blood stream eventually rendering the potential host immobile.
The Xenomorph's detection organs are all located in or around its head, and are extremely acute. It appears the Xenomorph feeds upon humans, but what its dietary needs are have yet to be determined. Also, what type of internal organs an Adult contains is unknown along with its life span.
SOOO NO one knows how long they live even giger
The other four tube-like appendages have been hypothesized to contain glands that secret a type of resin much like that used to construct a hive which would aid the Xenomorph in dropping down onto prey or ascending great heights while leaving the arms, legs, and tail free for use. It's possible they are used to secret the resin that the hive is constructed of, but it would be easier just to have the Xenomorph regurgitate that substance
HE CAN FLY! wait Oh no! SPLAT
The long head of the Adult may be due to housing an enlarged brain. This does not necessarily mean that the creature possesses a greater natural or innate intelligence. However, this could signify that the Alien's brain is more complex than that of other Earthly terrestrial organisms. It has been speculated that a translucent, featureless cowl on the exterior of a Xenomorph's head shows it is young. As the creature ages, the smooth cowl is lost, exposing distinct textured lining like that of the Xenomorphs encountered on LV-426 during the movie "Aliens". The reason for the cowl is probably to serve as a protective shell for the still developing cranium. The smooth heads of each alien(s) in the other three movies bears testament to this speculative fact.
WAIT MY HEADS 2 HEAVY I'm GOING TO FALL!
all aliens generate no heat meaning that they can live anywhere and since they can live in space the could LIVE on everests peak!
ENOUGH ABOUT THE STUPID DRONES i like queens!
It possesses a large cranial crown which extends two meters behind the back of its head, and it has a second set of smaller arms
The Queen's head is kept hidden in its cranium until awakened at which time the front portion of the head will emerge much like a turtle. The large crown may be used for communication between the queen and the workers of the hive
turtle turtle!
The secondary jaws of the Queen are similar to the Adult Xenomorph's secondary jaws, except they're proportionately larger with a striking length of roughly thirty-six inches.
ha you can't get me i'm 6 1/2 inches a AHHHH
second set of smaller arms the Queen possesses was originally thought to be used in a mating process, but the Queen on the U.S.M. Auriga was born fertile, however, this may be due to the mixture of human and Alien DNA. A mature Queen has an ovipositor which can reach a length of eight meters.
Both the Queen and its ovipositor are suspended from the roof of a hive by thick strands of resin. From the end of the ovipositor an egg is set down onto the floor of the hive. Ultimately, the Queen is responsible for producing a Queen-bearing Egg(s) but when she starts producing them is uncertain. Speculation suggests that when a Queen's Egg laying abilities are nearing an end the next Queen born takes over.
you animals... killing your mom! wait you are animals no you are weapons SERVE ME! AHHHHH NOT THE FACE!
this stinks! mybe i want speed like runners
Alien 3 saw the introduction of a new feature of Alien reproduction, a feature that has since become known as the DNA reflex theory. This is the theory that whenever an Alien infects another species, it takes traits from the host's DNA to help the Alien survive in the environment. And the first Alien to ever show this kind of ability was known as the Runner.
The Runner, or Dog Alien, is the result of an Alien infecting a quadruped. It typically moves on four legs but is very capable of standing on only two. Because of it using all four legs, the Runner has increased speed and agility. It is similar in size to a human born Alien, standing well over two meters tall, the Runner also has a different appearance to the other Aliens that had been encountered. It had an almost brown or red appearance (while it may have been due to the lighting used in the film, the Runner has always been portrayed as brown or red since), and no longer has any dorsal spines. Like the Alien in "Alien" and "Alien Resurrection", the Runner has a smooth cowl on its head but this might also be to denote age since the Runner was relatively young.
Unlike previous Aliens, the Runner was born in an "adult" form. It skipped the Chestburster phase altogether and emerged as a smaller version of itself. The Runner also had the ability to spit acid. Like in "Alien Resurrection", the acid appeared to be weaker than its actual blood. The Runner also seemed to have a higher resistance to fire.
I do not want to plagorize so i give all credit to corpal hicks to writting this execpt the comments in between
WAIT DARKFIRE...
what?
what about the newborn or predalien
okay i thought the newborn was a HORRUBLE IDEA and since it killed the queen i do not condier IT as an alien
predlaien well...go to the movie theater on DEC.25 or is it JAN 8th i forgot anway not much is known about that by ANYONE...
so thats a general small info section about aliens injoy and read happy!
