evolution is correct in that we break down and become altered.
it is not correct in building up.
naturally dna is lost destroyed or altered.
because of this rule, our dna is subjected to breaking down and changing
as a result we get variations.
Except that isn't true in the slightest.
DNA is not lost or destroyed, in any way shape or form. Genes become dormant because the pressures that select for those genes are not needed (such as humans being capable of having our whole body in hair or having a tail. Such a gene is dormant in a massive number of the population).
DNA does not break down, the genes inside of DNA can become dominant or recessive depending on outside pressures.
my cousin the cheetah is prime example of DNA breakdown.
except that his breakdown was considered beneficial.
however at a huge cost to health.
Your 'cousin' is a prime example of a genetic bottleneck because of outside pressures. That is why they have health risks; because their genetic population is so small that they don't have the same genetic variety of other felines.
monkeys and apes have an extra chromosomes to make up for losses.
That's not why they have extra chromosomes at all. Chimps have an extra pair of chromosomes over humans (48 over 4) but that's just because of the way their DNA divides itself. Bonobos have 46 pairs of chromosomes exactly the same as humans. Some species of ferns have over 1200 pairs of chromosomes!
