7 Facts About Human Evolution

Human Evolution Is Still Going On Today

Many people think that evolution takes millions of years or at least thousands of years, and it is a very slow process to track. But, scientists are now able to track the genetic shifts in real time. Thanks to technology and advancement in science.

It may seem like humans have already completed their evolutionary process.

This is however just an illusion. And it’s because evolution is a continuous process. It is driven by mutations in the genetic code, which gets transmitted to the next generation, without exception.

While the inheritance of a few mutations doesn’t really mean much, the constant occurrence of mutations and their subsequent accumulation eventually leads to the rise of new species.

In other words, as long as the mutation and inheritance process goes on, evolution will continue.
