Primate Chromosome Sequencing Reveals Evolutionary Insights
Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery by generating the first complete chromosome sequences from non-human primates, shedding light on species diversity and evolution. Published in Nature, the study compared ape chromosomes to human X and Y chromosomes, revealing significant variation and uncovering previously unstudied regions of great ape genomes. The research offers valuable insights into human evolution and genetic relationships between primates and humans.
Children Anticipate Others’ Food Preferences, But Great Apes Don’t
Children Anticipate What Others Want, But Great Apes Don’t New research published in PLOS ONE suggests that the ability to anticipate others’ food preferences may be unique to humans, setting them apart from nonhuman great apes. The study, conducted by…
