| For the DNA question- the main difference genetically between us and the ape is that two of the apes' chromosome pairs fused (a seroious mutation, for anyone who didn't know that). They have 24- we have 23 (pairs, that is). The info is basically the same between the two pairs in the ape and the one pair in the ape, however. This could be a difference.
And who says dolphins or something aren't *smarter* than us? |
