[/quote] You're on. The chicken has about as many genes as a human. 20 000- 23 000 in chickens, 20 000- 25 000 in humans. However the chicken genome has far fewer base pairs than for humans. Around 1 billion versus around 2.8 billion. The difference is due to less junk DNA. Only about 10% of the chicken's base pairs are repeating, as opposed to about 50% for humans.

Nihil Obstat Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I don't even like chickens very much. The above two posts represent about five minutes of internet searches on my part. I like to eat chickens though. I prefer chicken to any red meat, except for lamb, but since I don't get lamb very often, and I can have chicken multiple times in a week, chicken tends to win for practicality. One time I had frog legs. To be honest it was a little disappointing. Maybe part of it was the preparation. It was in a sort of tomato base, and I think it had been slow cooked. I'm not saying that's bad, but I didn't really enjoy it as much as I'd expected. I've also had escargot, and THAT is something I really enjoy. I've never had a bad snail. The consistency and texture is very nice, and it's also more filling than I had expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
