How do scientists determine we share 98% of our DNA with Chimps?

How do they determine it?

 

You reckon they put up a bullseye with various percents in various places & then throw darts?

 

It's actually much worse than that....

 

They only have 1/10000000000 of the Board and the darts are Grapefruits. 

 

So they just return to the "a priori" adherence to a fairytale train they just got off.... prior to their 13 Century Alchemy tests they perform that they call "science" so as to provide a "Pseudo-Validity Tow the Company Line" smokescreen that they know most assuredly will not be scrutinized by Joe Coffee and Betty Bread-Maker.

 

Rinse Repeat Rinse Repeat

 

IMHO:

 

Ah yes, the Company Line

I owe my soul the the Company Line;

I loaded 16 tons of # 9 monkey,

& the strawboss said, "It's good that your our flunky."

 

Academic freedom & freedom of speech are lacking, at least before tenure.

 

This is such a great post because "flunky' rhymes with "monkey".  Silly scientist should be poets, and then everything would make sense and be so much easier...

 

thanks 4 kind words

well, I'm wondering if anyone has answered the question that started all this.....   maybe I missed something.

 

 

Just how do they know that they are 98% the same???

The number comes from DNA-DNA Hybridization.  Human to Human DNA uncoils and separates at a given temperature.  DNA from two species can be combined, then when heat is applied they will also separate, but not at the same temperature.  Chimp and Human DNA separates at 98% of the temp that human to human DNA separates.  As I mentioned a few posts ago, this mothod is now giving way to sequencing, but my point was more about meta data than data.

Well, I see why I missed it.....     I've been kind of busy lately.

It is absurd to say that we share the same dna just because of temperature separations.....

 

What does the sequencing show?

90+%  We share DNA, just not as much, with all organisms.  DNA is just a combination of chemicals - and yes, it does not mean we are related.

Which should not be a surprise.  After all, we all live in the biosphere.  Adam and Eve had the 98% as well.

We don't share 90% with Chimps LOL, dealt with that here: 

 

These tests and comparisons are a joke currently, They're manipulated and fragmented and are only 2 dimensional.  The Polyfunctional  or 3 Dimensional aspects of DNA are not apart of the equation, which is laughable @ this point. 

 

It's Tantamount to measuring Lake Erie and the Pacific Ocean with a hand held straight edge.... then concluding they're similar because both contain water.  :huh:
