      Many different organisms have similar proteins and enzymes. The closer the relationships among organisms, the greater their biochemical similarity, thus suggesting evolutionary relationships. (ex.- protein Cytochrome C , amino acid chain is the same in humans and apes, Insulin from pigs and sheep is used in humans, snake bites and horse blood).

With cultural evolution, humans continue to acquire knowledge, enabling us to exert more control over our environment than any other species ever has, but we have probably done more damage also. What does this mean for the future of

      When Darwin left, the world was thought to be about 6000 years old and that humans had essentially existed since the beginning. Darwin’s contemporary Lyell suggested the Earth was millions of years old based on geological processes. We now know the Earth to be closer to four and a half billion years old.
