PDF-(EBOOK)-Human Origins: What Bones and Genomes Tell Us about Ourselves

Ever since the recognition of the Neanderthals as an archaic human in the midnineteenth century the fossilized bones of extinct humans have been used by paleoanthropologists to explore human origins These bones told the story of how the earliest humansbipedal apes actuallyfirst emerged in Africa some 6 to 7 million years ago Starting about 2 million years ago the bones revealed as humans became anatomically and behaviorally more modern they swept out of Africa in waves into Asia Europe and finally the New WorldEven as paleoanthropologists continued to make important discoveriesMary Leakeys Nutcracker Man in 1959 Don Johansons Lucy in 1974 and most recently Martin Pickfords Millennium Man to name just a fewexperts in genetics were looking at the human species from a very different angle In 1953 James Watson and Francis Crick first saw the double helix structure of DNA the basic building block of all life In the 1970s it was shown that humans share 987 of their genes with the great apesthat in fact genetically we are more closely related to chimpanzees than chimpanzees are to gorillas And most recently the entire human genome has been mappedwe now know where each of the genes on the chromosomes that make up DNA is located on the double helixIn Human Origins What Bones and Genomes Tell Us about Ourselves two of the worlds foremost scientists geneticist Rob DeSalle and paleoanthropologist Ian Tattersall show how research into the human genome confirms what fossil bones have told us about human origins This unprecedented integration of the fossil and genomic records provides the most complete understanding possible of humanitys place in nature its emergence from the rest of the living world and the evolutionary processes that have molded human populations to be what they are todayHuman Origins serves as a companion volume to the American Museum of Natural Historys new permanent exhibit as well as standing alone as an accessible overview of recent insights into what it means to be human.

This means a linear concatamer of phage DNA is synthesized, used to fill a phage head, then cut when the head is full. Generally, one head will fit more than 100% of a genome, say, 103-110%. This ensures that wherever the DNA is cut, at least one working copy of each gene is present.. Skin SSG . May 2018. Catherine Carpenter-Clawson, Programme Manager, WE GMC.
