A MOLECULAR TIME SCALE FOR HUMAN EVOLUTION*

RESUMO

We discuss published molecular evidence concerning the relationship of man to African apes and Old World monkeys. Quantitative comparisons of their serum albumins, transferrins, hemoglobins, and DNA show that man is genetically much more similar to the African apes than to the Old World monkeys.
