And I just want to say that that is absolutely not going to be the case.

The initial frequency of the red hair gene is therefore 50 percent, or 10 of 20 total genes.

These are commonly prescribed antidepressants.

We have no written record. Well, actually, we do.

This is how this can work.

It's genetic.

Gene.

And maybe I got some version of the straight allele.

But it is and I think you already have an idea.

In Discover Magazine, I'm an investigative puzzle maker.

But these retroviruses, they're actually changing our genetic makeup.

And we got these overlapping circles.

So she has the gene right there for curly hair.

Our genetic heritage...

There's no reason for us to be here we're just accidents of genetics,

Recommendation 2

And I have a genetic anomaly.

I'm more than my genes all together.

So these two bacteria both of a common gene called the HFQ gene, which Nye

Ah, oh no, these genes are actually different.

And we're also their closest cousin.

So let's say the 150 base pairs that coded for insulin, these make up a gene.

Some of you have this. And it's sex linked.

So my father's version of that gene, he had the allele for straightness.

We are all 99.9 genetically equal.

And I'd like to submit to you that we have sequenced the human genome, we know everything about the sequence of the gene, the language of the gene, the alphabet of the gene,

They're still our closest genetic kin.

Metagenic research.

It's now under a 10th of a cent.

Unaltered ?

A key thing is that the major violence genes, it's called the MAO A gene.

We'll dive deep into the biological processes, to learn how people have different bloodtypes

So we think that we can expand or contract genomes, depending on your point of view here, to maybe 300 to 400 genes from the minimal of 500.

It's a social gene running through us.

These people were chosen by geneticists?

I'll use that word.

The gene just says, look, this is the gene for whether or not your hair is curly.

Not that weird for this town.

3. Genetic exceptionalism

But a gene turns on that actually fuses those together.

So, scientists were very excited, and they said, a single oncogene can do it.

So I got like the fifth version of the curly allele.

Transposons are just small pieces of DNA that randomly insert in the genetic code.

We share 98.8 percent of the genes.

Why don't we play it like golf or sailing?
