Human Evolution May Be Speeding Up

Not only is the development of human technology speeding up but according to a new study human evolution may be speeding up as well.

Henry C. Harpending, an anthropologist at the University of Utah along colleagues compared the DNA of chimpanzees (our closest relative) and humans. They noted that the current rate of change does not match the number of differences concluding that our evolution must have been much slower than it is now.

"Rapid population growth has been coupled with vast changes in cultures and ecology, creating new opportunities for adaptation," the study says. "The past 10,000 years have seen rapid skeletal and dental evolution in human populations, as well as the appearance of many new genetic responses to diet and disease."

As humans from the various corners of the planet have thus far evolved along their myriad tracks it will be interesting to speculate how the current trends of globalization will affect our development as a species.

The findings will be published in the online edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

If you prefer to place your geese for sale ads locally, then just have them printed in the local newspaper or simply place signs at grocery stores. You could even add designs to the ad to attract first time buyers of geese. You also need to be specific with what kind of geese you have to offer. And surely, in no time at all, you will have buyers lined up. cheap beats http://ingram-associates.com
