Under Mo Xiaoxue's smiling gaze, Mo Jingchun hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
After a year of research, he had made very slow progress with the Gene Optimization Fluid left behind by an unknown civilization. He had only made the surprising discovery that it really did affect human genes.
More precisely, it affected most of the living things on Blue Star.
This couldn't help but make Mo Jingchun wonder whether the genes of all organic life in the universe were like those of Blue Star's living things, with a double-helix structure. Even more intriguing was that all life on Blue Star shared many similar genes.
According to research by international biological laboratories, the genetic similarity between humans was an astonishing 99%.
The genetic similarity between humans and chimpanzees was 96%!
The genetic similarity between humans and mice was 85%.
That was why biological laboratories always began with experiments on mice. If those showed no problems, they moved on to chimpanzees, and only then to clinical trials.
A drug could go on the market only after experiments confirmed that its side effects were within acceptable limits.
Surprisingly, humans and bananas shared 50% of their genes. Why was that?
The reason living things shared so many genes was that nearly all life originated from a common ancestor: LUCA.
In theory, all life on Blue Star came from the same single-celled organism.
The problem was, the Gene Optimization Fluid obtained through a trade with the unknown civilization seemed as if it had been made for life on Blue Star.
The only other explanation Mo Jingchun could think of was that organisms throughout the universe whose genetic material was double-stranded DNA shared similar genetic sequences.
"Sure, but there are many dangerous chemicals and items in my laboratory. If Zero tells you not
