      It is- crazy to think isn’t it! We actually share up to 60% of our DNA with bananas.This is because many of our genes are needed for basic cell functions. Banana cells have the same needs and for that reason we share a lot of DNA with them!

      All living things share DNA with each other! Its because at the end of the line we all came from one cell according to evolution. 🙂
