[QUOTE="Guy Threepwood, post: 74871560, member: 423388"] I believe some of the best earliest examples used to establish this - were in examining the DNA of fruit flies. It could be observed that specific mutations on specific parts of the DNA sequence corresponded to specific mutations in the fly's development (e.g. vestigial wings) again specific code literally [I]specifies [/I]how wings should develop That's pretty basic, but research has come a long way and many specific genetic identifiers are known and used in forensics- inherited traits etc. I don't like to send people down rabbit holes with links, but there is tons of info on this- where it gets controversial is in exactly how much is specified & how much is junk- because again- when info is encoded it's very difficult to tell- we produce a lot of info that is encoded specifically to look like junk when it is not- so it's ongoing The larger point being; there is obviously a great deal of specified info present in DNA and required for our bodies to develop [/QUOTE]
