American scientists conducted a study in which they discovered that genes are shared by humans and multicellular organisms.
And the Proceedings of the Royal Society B reported that ocean creatures in the Ediacaran age, which are 555 million years old, share genes with humans.
According to a study by the University of California Riverside, these creatures had no head, legs or arms.
However, both in protozoan multicellular organisms and in modern animals, including humans, it is the genes responsible for the main elements of the immune system itself.
For example, the first multicellular organisms were able to repair damaged body parts through a process known as apoptosis. This mechanism helps humans destroy virus-infected cells and cancer cells.Scientists drew their conclusions by studying well-preserved fossil records. For their analysis, the researchers looked at four animals that represent more than 40 different species of the Ediacaran era, including Triprashidium, Accaria, Deakinsonia, and Cambrila.
