Human Evolution- Homo Neanderthalic and Homo Sapien Mutations

Meer over het boek

Focusing on human evolution, the book explores how peninsular India served as a site for the transformation from Homo neanderthalis to Homo sapiens. It highlights specific genetic mutations found in the Kerala population, such as the SLOS mutation, which plays a crucial role in regulating cholesterol and preventing diseases. Other mutations are linked to Neanderthal traits and contribute to understanding protein toxicity. The integration of archaeal genomic sequences further illustrates the genetic interplay that shaped human evolution, emphasizing a linear transformation between species.
