An amazing find in the world of polyeontology

in #science7 years ago

Found a soft dinosaur fabric

Molecular paleontologist of the University of North Carolina Mary Schweitzer in 2005 in the petrified limb of a tyrannosaurus teenager from Montana (65 million years old) discovered soft tissues.
Previously, it was believed that any protein will expand for a maximum of several thousand years, so no one in fossils and did not look. After that, soft tissues (collagen) were found in other ancient specimens.

From the work of two scientific groups it became clear that from 1 to 3% of the genome of the average European or Asian goes back to the Neanderthals. But every modern individual has different Neanderthal alleles (different forms of the same gene), so the total amount of "Neanderthal" genes is much higher, up to 30%.

"Heirs" of Neanderthals (crossing occurred about 45 thousand years ago) - mostly Europeans; Asians in the genome have traces of crossing with another hominid - a "Denisov man." The most "pure" Homo sapiens are natives of the African continent
