==Contrary to the popular belief that Humans came from monkeys, we actually came from a COMMON ANCESTOR meaning we are two different species, with some similarities. Human evolution is the evolutionary process leading up to the appearance of modern humans. It began with the last common ancestor of all life, the topic usually covers only the evolutionary history of primates, in particular the genus Homo, and the emergence of Homo sapiens as a distinct species of primate. ==

Deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA is a molecule that encodes the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms and many viruses. DNA are double helix, which are held together by nucleotides, every nucleotide is composed of guanine, adenine, thymine, and cytosine, which are represented by; G, A, T, and C, G can only go with C, A can only go with T, otherwise the Helix would be too wide, or too thin.

DNA is passed down from your parents, and their parents, and so on. You get 23 Chromosomes from your Mother, and 23 Chromosomes from your Father. This defines everything about you, your hair color, your skin color, your eye color, everything down to how you behave. It also is the reason for Hereditary diseases, such as Huntington's disease.



DNA Replication is when a double helix strand of DNA is split in two by the DNA Helicase, which is then scanned by the DNA Polymerase.
