Is it true that human genome has 60% similarity with banana? (ChatGPT, 2024-10-19) (車行形上學)

Yes, it’s true that the human genome shares about 60% similarity with the banana genome. This doesn’t mean that humans are 60% banana; rather, it reflects the fact that many basic cellular processes are shared among living organisms. These common genetic sequences are involved in fundamental biological functions, like cell division and metabolism, which are conserved across different species due to evolution. Thus, even organisms as different as humans and bananas can share a significant portion of their DNA.
