Скачать или смотреть DNA Evidence That Humans & Chimps Share A Common Ancestor: Endogenous Retroviruses

I now have a series of videos doing a deep dive into ERVs on the "Stated Casually" channel. Check it out here:    • Did God put Endogenous Retrovirus DNA in o...  

Here we explore the amazing discovery of Endogenous Retroviruses (ERVs) in our own DNA. These are genetic remnants of antient virus infections suffered by our ancestors. It turns out that many of our Endogenous Retroviruses are shared by chimpanzees. This is because we share a common ancestor with them.
