w-1 day6

Nine-tenths of our genes are identical to that of a mouse. It doesn’t tell much. Neither would this: sixty percent of DNA found in the humans is also found in a banana. Where lies the mystery then?
DNA in a molecule is a genetic universe. A difference of .1 in a molecule would make some 3 million genetic differences. From such numbers material nature can give a mouse its own uniqueness as a man.( cf. Week 4. 5th day).
Genetic material of man and nematode are of same nature: Material nature. This nature gives both the wherewithal to respond to external stimulii.
Tailpiece: But if different species having acquired special skills and would still opt for a relationship of sorts would it not mean each stands to gain thereof? It also implies some kind of order. The expression ‘You watch my back and I shall watch yours.’illustrates it.
