"Human–chimpanzee comparative genome research is essential for narrowing down genetic changes involved in the acquisition of unique human features, such as highly developed cognitive functions, bipedalism or the use of complex language."
DNA sequence and comparative analysis of chimpanzee chromosome 22 The human genome project is now complete and scientists have been telling us that it is essential to map the Chimpanzee genome. They are only begining to make comparisons and one difference supprised the researchers. The presence of indels was something completly unexpected. There were 68,000 indels in the two chromosomes and the signifigance of this should not be overlooked. When they were comparing the strings there would be an insertion in the human genome, thus an insertion, at times there would be something missing, thus a deletion, thus insertion (IN) deletion (DEL) or indels.
Question for debate:
Assuming the most recent common ancestor model from natural history is valid then how did these differences occur? Now any issues relating to the creation/evolution controvesy will be welcome here:
How did the human brain evolve?
