(you knew I was going to go here, didn't you) Apparently, something like 36% of the substitutions are the same when compared to the functional rat GLO gene. If we assume that there is some pro-simian ancestor that has a functional GLO gene, then it would appear that humans are more closely related to guinea pigs than to this pro-simian ancestor. This would seem to defy the evolutionary scenario. How do you explain this? |
If you're seriously interested in exploring this, you'll need to give a reference for the data. It's not in the Max paper.
Of course, it's possible that you're not serious about exploring it, but that you just wanted to throw out some mumbo-jumbo with numbers in it, to appear as if you have a clue.
