Humans and chimps share a surprising 98.8 percent of their DNA.
[tex]\huge ☘︎\bf \ \purple{Explanation}[/tex]
The DNA sequence that can be directly compared between the two genomes is almost 99 percent identical. When DNA insertions and deletions are taken into account, humans and chimps still share 96 percent of their sequence. At the protein level, 29 percent of genes code for the same amino sequences in chimps and humans.

98.8 percent
Humans and chimps share a surprising 98.8 percent of their DNA. How can we be so similar--and yet so different?
This is so confusing but answering this question helped me a lot in my studies
I don't know will you find this helpful or not but this helped me a lot
Thanks a bunch
