Though i haven't been keeping up to date on my genetic research lately.

2020-07-21 20:02:56 UTC  

Humans share half our DNA with bananas

2020-07-21 20:09:41 UTC  

What's wrong with the information they give?

2020-07-21 20:09:53 UTC  

you don't like the name?

2020-07-21 20:10:50 UTC  

Well, cause we just proved it wrong within the first couple sentences.

2020-07-21 20:11:14 UTC  

you really think humans share 50% dna with bananas?

2020-07-21 20:11:42 UTC  

I know so

2020-07-21 20:12:47 UTC  

Yeah. I've seen the dna sequences matched up.. maybe not with a banana specifically, but with other animals and such.

2020-07-21 20:13:03 UTC  

well this particular sequence doesn't match up

2020-07-21 20:13:07 UTC  

apes and humans

2020-07-21 20:14:16 UTC  

im also talking about DNA

2020-07-21 20:15:20 UTC  

just saying, I can believe evolution isn't real and you can believe it is.

2020-07-21 20:19:14 UTC  

you're using all this info based on evolution being real, even though it's shown that humans and apes don't have the same DNA

2020-07-21 20:22:02 UTC  

"Well, rather surprisingly, genes – the regions of DNA that code for proteins – only make up about 2% of your DNA. So sharing 50% of our genes with bananas means we only actually share 1% of our DNA with them – not 50."

2020-07-21 20:27:00 UTC  

Oh, evolution is absolutely real, we've seen it happen before our eyes.

2020-07-21 20:28:01 UTC  

what some people are usually against is MACRO evolution

2020-07-21 20:30:10 UTC  

scientists lie about global warming, why wouldn't they lie about humans evolving from apes?

2020-07-21 20:30:25 UTC  

I'm talking about humans evolving from apes, I haven't looked into moths.

2020-07-21 20:30:54 UTC  

That's an example of microevolution

2020-07-21 20:38:17 UTC  

i was taught in public school that we evolved from tadpoles to land fish onto apes to humans. if we eat fish does that make us some type of cannibal?

2020-07-21 20:40:37 UTC  

anyway, i think being skeptical is good. I for one find the evidence damning. Our genetic markers are not the same at all and I just don't believe we evolved from fish to land fish and then into furry mammals somehow

2020-07-21 20:41:27 UTC  

Evolution takes time. Millions and millions of years

2020-07-21 20:41:41 UTC  

I just read a BBC article on how humans are related to fish and all they had was how embryos sort of looking fish-like as their evidence

2020-07-21 20:42:18 UTC  

Okay yeah, that is a bit of a stretch

2020-07-21 20:42:33 UTC  

But there is evidence for evolution all over the place

2020-07-21 20:43:01 UTC  

maybe

2020-07-21 20:43:22 UTC  

"fishy features" they call it

2020-07-21 20:44:07 UTC  

and hiccups make us fish related

2020-07-21 20:44:53 UTC  

and somehow shark gonads and human gonads somehow make us similar to fish

2020-07-21 20:45:30 UTC  

shark gonads don't descend and human gonads do descend so.... evidence

2020-07-21 20:46:51 UTC  

shark isn't a fish...it's a mammal still swimming

2020-07-21 20:48:38 UTC  

a shark is a fish

2020-07-21 20:51:11 UTC  

Lmfao

2020-07-21 20:55:12 UTC  

They say the philtrum has no use whaaat!? It's used to help babies breathe when they're breast feeding.

2020-07-21 20:57:43 UTC

2020-07-21 21:17:59 UTC  

Humans didn't evolve from monkeys or apes, we both just split off from a common ancestor <:dogekek:726878872607653918> That's why apes are apes and humans are humans today.

2020-07-21 21:19:01 UTC  

wasn't what I was taught in school and i still don't think we evolved

2020-07-21 21:19:17 UTC  

are they changing the evolution curriculum too?

2020-07-21 21:20:36 UTC  

Yeah, that "humans come from apes" thing is a misconception. I also never really learned about evolution in science classes in my life; only about biology with plants and some animals
