New Discoveries of Our Ancestor face

An ancestor or forebear is the parent of an ancestor (i.e., a grandparent, great-grandparent, great-great-grandparent, and so forth).

Two individuals have a genetic relationship if one is the ancestor of the other, or if they share a common ancestor. In evolutionary theory, species which share an evolutionary ancestor are said to be of common descent

Humanity’s Greatest Threat | Human/Animal Hybrids


The discoveries of new species by cloning human with animal hybrids are humanity’s greatest threat. British scientists have secretly generated more than 150 human-animal hybrid embryos.

 The Daily Mail gleaned an exclusive look at the figures which show 155 "admixed" embryos with human and animal genes have been concocted since the 2008 Human Fertilization Embryology Act. 

This legalized the creation of a variety of hybrids, including an animal egg fertilized by a human sperm; ‘hybrids’, in which a human nucleus is implanted into an animal cell; and ‘chimeras’, in which human cells are mixed with animal embryos. 

Conducted at King's College London, Newcastle University, and Warwick University, scientists say the experiments can be used to produce embryonic stem cells that treat a host of illnesses.

The discovery of the new species - Yutyrannus

It has been reported that the Palaeontologists of China has recently found remaining of largest feathered dinosaur. The new species thus found has been identified as Yutyrannus. The discovery of the new species has thrilled the Palaeontologists.

It has been informed that Yutyrannus existed on the Earth 125 years ago. It is estimated that an adult Yutyrannus might have weighed 1,400 kg. Besides, they used to rely over flesh for their existence. It has been informed that the dinosaurs were wiped off from the Earth by huge asteroids. Full Story

Discovered New Species of Frog in US

A new species of frog has been discovered in the bustling city of amid the skyscrapers and subways, which scientists say is "nothing short of amazing."

"The species is completely distinct," said Leslie Rissler, programme director with the National Science Foundation.

The newly-identified animal is among more than a dozen distinct leopard frog species.

While it is fairly common to find new species of animals in the remote wildness or in rain forests, to discover one in marshes and ponds within an urban area such as New York is nothing short of amazing, Rissler, who is part of the team of scientists that found the species, was quoted as saying by CNN.

Amazing Interspecific Hybrids – Two in One

Interspecific hybrids are bred by mating two species, usually from within the same genus. The offspring display behavior and characteristics of both parents. The offspring of an interspecific cross are very often sterile; thus, hybrid sterility prevents the movement of genes from one species to the other, keeping both species distinct. Sterility is often attributed to the different number of chromosomes the two species have.

Hybrids are often named by the portmanteau method, combining the names of the two parent species. For example, a zeedonk is a cross between a zebra and a donkey. Since the traits of hybrid offspring often vary depending on which species was mother and which was father, it is traditional to use the father's species as the first half of the portmanteau. For example, a liger is a cross between a male lion and a female tiger, while a tiglon is a cross between a male tiger and a female lion.
