Why isn't it changing now?

Question

if we came from apes,how come there isn't any changing going on now?no changes in dna in any speices.not one little bit.dog/dog cat/cat human/human ape/ape.etc,etc

Answer 1

Actually, there are lots of changes. We've seen dramatic changes in bacteria, for example, as they evolve defenses against antibiotics--when antibiotics were first used in the 1930s, Penicillin could kill most bacteria. Researchers continued to discover new types of antibiotics to use through the years, and while they've been doing that, bacteria have been busy developing immunity, so now we have bacteria that no antibiotics can kill.

Answer 2

you will probably live less than a hundred years. evolution takes millions of years.

Answer 3

changes take a long time to show. We may have changed dramatically and just dont realize it because we only saw it as gradual.  Nothing changes over night.

Answer 4

Change is a process - it takes millions to notice a considerable change. Keeping apes aside just consider Mosquitoes - r they not more resistant to repellents now than before??.

Taking humans as an example - there may be a day when we will not have an appendix!! Our skin may be more tolerent to UV rays etc.

Answer 5

Check out the latest edition of Discover Magazine.  We're still evolving and always will be.

Answer 6

You are a realist like me, species evolve, not dramatically change into another, except by man experimenting. We did not come from apes, similarities are not proof of relationship.

Answer 7

Actually, there is adaptive changing going on all the time.  Scientist recently discovered moths in Great Britain were changing from white to gray to match the polluted air and remain camouflaged.  Insect changes are easier to see because they live such short lives.  It took many millions of years for the changes we see in people and animals today.  Stick around for a few million years and you'll see some changes.

Answer 8

Of course, you are absolutely right my friend, there is not one shred of evidence for evolution, especially of our beginnings as Apes. Anthropology is a subject made up of assumption, theory, cheating and downright lies. Not to mention the odd backstabber.

Answer 9

Actually, if you notice, people have different eyes, skin and body shape and size than they did just fifty years ago, more different a hundred years ago.

Answer 10

i don't believe we came from apes. thats why there isnt that much change.

Answer 11

it takes a long time to evlove.

Answer 12

Actually, you are quite wrong. Go here for evidence of such things as polyploidy, which I can safely assume you know nothing about.
