All humans carry genetic information in the form of DNA. It is because of this huge ......... that scientists and historians have been able to identify ancient remains. oblige segue molecule miniscule
However, there were limitations on the use of DNA. The analysis was only ......... to remains of a few thousand years old. applicable apropos aphides argotic
Fortunately, this changed with the discovery of another technique for replicating genes. Using PCR, a researcher can take even the smallest sample and enlarge it into a ......... amount for analysis. futuristic feasible functional fortuitous
With the discovery of PCR, scientists were able to accurately date well-preserved remains of ......... bones with the use of an automated sequencing machine that can interpret the genetic code. Neosporin Neostigmine Neonatal Neanderthal
Researchers also discovered some mutations that occurred throughout history. Geneticists' used this evidence to determine that some of the mutational DNA had a ......... length of time. finite future fatalistic fantastic
Scientists have discovered a few surprises when using stands of DNA. Samples taken from Neanderthal bones showed no link between ......... from that time period and modern humans. homogenous homogenized Homo sapiens homoeopathy
Mungo Man was a human whose remains were found in Australia in 2001. DNA dated him to be 41,000 years old, but having only slight ......... matches to modern day humans. Another surprise was that he was not the forefather of Australian Aborigines. genetic genius genuine generous
One explanation given by researchers for the slight DNA match was that Mungo Man may have been part of a populus whose genetic ......... did not survive. haricot hemorrhoid heritage heritable
