- Research shows that the same "jumping genes" (DNA sequences that move from one location on the genome to another) are active both in the human brain and in the brain of two species of Octopus. This similarity between man and octopus could be explained as an example of convergent evolution https://bmcbiol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12915-022-01303-5 3 comments science
