What else can I help you with?
Why can't patterns of inheritance in humans be as easily studied as in peas and frruit flies.?
Firstly, peas and fruit flies come to maturity much faster than humans so you can fit in lots of generations in a practicable time. Secondly, fruit flies have a much simpler genotype than we do. Finally there are far fewer ethical restrictions when you experiment on flies or peas.
Do fruit flies and humans have about the same evolutionary relationship to wheat?
Oh, dude, not even close! Fruit flies and humans are like distant cousins twice removed when it comes to wheat. Fruit flies are more like that annoying neighbor you wave to but don't really want to hang out with, while humans are like the cool kids at the party that wheat wants to chill with. So yeah, they're pretty far apart on the evolutionary tree.
How much DNA do gorillas share with humans?
Gorillas share about 98 of their DNA with humans.
How much DNA do humans share with bacteria?
Humans share about 1-2 of their DNA with bacteria.
How much DNA do humans share with apes?
Humans share approximately 98-99 of their DNA with apes.

How much DNA do humans share with dogs?
I have heard several figures, but the most believable I've heard was 75% of our DNA being the same as that of a dog even though they have 78 chromosomes while we have 46. We share 50% of our DNA with bananas, same for fruit flies. 97% of our DNA is shared with Chimps.
How much DNA do humans share with apes?
Humans share approximately 98-99 of their DNA with apes.
How much DNA do humans share with monkeys?
Humans share approximately 98-99 of their DNA with monkeys.
How much DNA do humans and apes share in common?
Humans and apes share about 98-99 of their DNA in common.
How much DNA do we share with mice?
Humans share about 85 of their DNA with mice.
What are house flies environment?
Fruit flies, sometimes called gnats, are tiny insects that are often found buzzing around a bowl of fresh fruit. Scientists find fruit flies useful to study because some of their genes are very similar to those of humans. The fruit fly is highly susceptible to environmental factors, the genetic effects of which can be seen over the course of a few generations in fruit flies, since they reproduce, age, and pass on so much more quickly than other organisms.
How much DNA do we share with gorillas?
Humans share approximately 98 of their DNA with gorillas.
How much space do fruit flies need?
You can raise hundreds of fruit flies in a small vial that is 1" in diameter and 4 inches tall.
