Humans Likely Contain Some Amount of Neanderthal DNA
Numerous human subspecies existed alongside modern humans for a very long time ago. Among them were the Neanderthals.
Today, the Neanderthal is extinct. However, a part of the Neanderthal DNA may be present in modern humans particularly those who live in places like Europe and Asia. According to studies and researches on humans, it is believed that humans have 20% of Neanderthal DNA. The Neanderthal DNA in humans is found in skin, hair, and nails. Even the modern diseases among humans have close relations to the Neanderthal DNA.
The theory has been proposed that at one point in human history when humans and Neanderthals were living together, some Neanderthals mixed with modern humans and passed on their genes.
This is still being studied and with the passage of time, we will be able to find out more.
