Quote:

The existance of extra junk DNA is probably just the result of extra copying from generation to generation.

One hypothesis theorizes that much of the extra DNA exists to increase the physical bulk of the nucleus.

However the prevailing view in molecular biology is that the extra sequences are somewhat parasitic-that over the generations a collection of sequences have accumulated in the cell, exploiting the cells resources and machinery and for its own reproduction needs without providing any benefit to the cell in return.




While all of these might be true, its also true that much of non-coding dna is responsible for safe dna replication (I may be mixing up the terms, but I'm sure you get the point). Some of it, appears to be junk (you can't prove non-coding dna has no purpose, you can only prove we don't know the purpose).

The problem is in a lazy designer. Well, if chimps and humans already have similar DNA, it stands to reason that much of their 'true' junk dna will be generated to be similar (even with a creator).

JCL is gonna be a bit overwhelmed when he gets back!
