Every thing created pair

Salam to All,
Brother Imran asked a very good question. How did this Whiptail came into existence.
I found out its a result of hybridization of a sexual species of the lizard. The female hybrids start to produce clones distinct from either parental species. In other words, they instantly become a new species of their own.

Peace centi50,
Possible explanation
Clarification
The ayah didn't say "Everything", rather it said "from/of everything ". It's an arabic expression used to mean "many/ a lot of".
Let's examine other ayahs first
1- God says in surat Annaml 2723
Sahih International
Indeed, I found a woman ruling them, and she has been given of all things, and she has a great throne.In the same surah ayah 16
Sahih International
And Solomon inherited David. He said, "O people, we have been taught the language of birds, and we have been given from all things. Indeed, this is evident bounty."We don't need to say that Sulayman- Peace be upon him- and the woman didn't have "every thing" but they were given "from" every thing as the woman's kingdom wasn't given to Sulayman and vise versa. It refers to those things only which are needed by the government or an empire. Otherwise it is obvious that they did not have cars or railways in those days. It means that whatever services are needed to a king or an aristocrat according to their time, they all were available to her. It is, however, obvious that those things that were not available to them, their unavailability is not in conflict with this verse.
