From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Changes in chromosomes during evolution. During human evolution, two ancestral ape chromosomes fused to produce human chromosome 2 (shown in the diagram, green outline). Humans are more distantly related to other mammals than to chimps. The greater divergence of chromosomal contiguity for cats and rats is shown.
