93 percent
"I tried to say that our DNA is very similar, but has important differences"
Just an interesting note
The genes you inherit from your mother and father are at a maximum only 93% similar and they are human genes.
Hemoglobin in humans and chimpanzees are about 98% similar
but so is hemoglobin in slime molds (similar to humans) yet a slime mold is so very different from a human.
A cloud, watermelon and a jellyfish are 98% water. To use evolutionary logic there is no difference(or little) between these three things. Yet what we see... the extra 2% makes a World of difference

Re: 93 percent
I got my information of the video "A question of Origins"
I know it sounds weird that slime molds have hemoglobin. I agree myself but i was just stating what i heard from the video.
