Chimps May Have Evolved More Than Humans

New documentation suggests that chimpanzee genes have evolved more than human ones. At this week’s proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, University of Michigan researches analyzed DNA from 14,000 protein coded genes from both species and presented their findings. They concluded that genes in chimps evolved in more ways that were beneficial to them than in their human counterparts. The results of the study suggests that they could possibly be based on the fact that overall humans had a smaller population size when compared with the chimps. We are thinking that perhaps we just need a smidgen more evolution time to catch up to our Darwinian cousins.
