A new study finds that just seven percent of the genome, or all genes, of modern humans is special to that group. It suggests today’s humans are extremely similar genetically to their ancestors from tens of thousands of years ago.
The research appeared in the publication Science Advances.
“That’s a
pretty small percentage,” says Nathan Schaefer, a biologist, or life scientist, at the University of California, and a leader of the research.
“This kind of finding is why scientists are turning away from thinking that we humans are so

¿Qué hace únicos a los seres humanos? Los científicos dieron un nuevo paso hacia la solución de ese viejo misterio con una herramienta que pudiera permitir comparaciones precisas entre el ADN de los humanos modernos y el de nuestros antepasados extintos.
Sólo 7% de nuestro genoma es compartido exclusivamente con otros humanos y no compartido con nuestros antepasados, de acuerdo con un estudio publicado el viernes por la revista Science Advances.
