T-Rex and Chicken?
“Protein extracted from 68 million-year-old T. rex bones has shed new light on the evolutionary link between dinosaurs and birds.
Researchers compared organic molecules preserved in the T. rex fossils with those of living animals, and found they were similar to chicken protein.
The discovery of protein in dinosaur bones is a surprise - organic material was not thought to survive this long.
A US team of researchers have published the finding in Science journal.
The team says their technique could help reveal evolutionary relationships between other living and extinct organisms.
The finding is consistent with the idea that birds can trace a direct evolutionary line to dinosaurs.”
Chicken and T-Rex having evoluntionary link? Interesting!! The resemblance may not be immediately obvious.
