The classification system provides insight into the DNA make-up of organisms across the planet, but it also shows how cell DNA might have mutated in the past, making it possible for one species to evolve into an entirely different species over time. It could reveal how humans might have evolved from apes, and if there is merit to this well-known theory and other theories surrounding the dramatic evolution of life on Earth. The research, published in Science, was carried out through DNA Zoo, a global initiative that analyses DNA from different species to help researchers, leaders and policy-makers better understand species through their DNA as well a
