From the chart,itis“obvious”thatweallstartedoffaspenicilliumwithonly2chromosomes,andthatweslowlyevolvedinto fruit flies. After many “millions of years” we turned intotomatoes (or house flies) and so on, until we reached the humanstage with46chromosomes. One of our ancestors must have beenone of the identical triplets—possums, redwood trees, and kidneybeans—with22chromosomeseach.Ifweareallowedto“continueevolving”we may someday be tobacco plants andmaybe we may even become carp with100, or maybe even the ultimate lifeform,afernwith480chromosomes!Don’t you believe it!
