Biology Quote by Robert M. Sapolsky

By comparing the human and chimp genomes, we can see the process of evolution clearly in the changes (in DNA) since we diverged from…

When we look at chimpanzees . . . we get this extremely fine-grained view of evolution, and as a result we understand a lot…

For example, both humans and chimps have a broken copy of a gene that in other mammals helps make vitamin C. ... It's hard…

In fact, humans have less variation genetically than chimpanzees.

“In our own genetic profile, believe it or not, scientific evidence indicates that we humans share 99.4% of our total DNA sequences with the chimpanzee.”

— Jill Bolte Taylor

Very close cousins like humans and chimps have almost all their genes in common. Slightly less close cousins like humans and monkeys still have…

If one compares the sequence of amino acids that go to form the protein haemoglobin, it becomes apparent that humans and chimps are identical…

— Simon Conway Morris

“Proponents of the "we're all one race," swill took another hit recently when scientists revealed that bananas share about 50% of the DNA of…

We have the same genetic code for all living creatures. We have a large number of genes that are manifestly the same, but with…

— Richard Dawkins

The regulation of genes is often more interesting than the genes themselves, and it's the environment that regulates genes.

— Robert M. Sapolsky

If we start with chimpanzees, they differ from us with the composition of the DNA by only just over one percent. So, as far…

“The genetic differences between human races turn out to be based largely in allele frequencies,”
