Primeramente, se plantea cómo los avances científicos nos han ayudado a concebir la dinámica de los procesos biológicos de la naturaleza. Después, la relación filogenética que los humanos tenemos con el resto de las especies biológicas que existen y han existido en el planeta, y los linajes evolutivos que nos unen con un ancestro común. Por último, los estudios etológicos, morfológicos, fisiológicos, bioquímicos y genéticos, soportan las similitudes que compartimos con los mamíferos y en especial con el resto de los primates. Solo 1% de las características genéticas nos diferencian de especies como los chimpancés y los bonobos, son estas diferencias las que han permitido que Homo sapiens haya realizado proezas como llegar hasta la luna o enviar memes mediante aplicaciones tecnológicas.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract This essay exposes, in three central axes, the impact that evolutionary theory has had on humanity's conception of nature, biodiversity and itself. Firstly, it considers how scientific advances have helped us to conceive the dynamics of biological processes in nature. Then, the phylogenetic relationship that humans have with the rest of the biological species that exist and have existed on the planet, and the evolutionary lineages that binds us together with a common ancestor. Finally, ethological, morphological, physiological, biochemical and genetic studies support the similarities that we share with mammals and especially with other primates. Only 1% of the genetic characteristics differentiate us from species such as chimpanzees and bonobos, it is these differences that have allowed Homo sapiens to perform great achievements such as reaching the moon or sending memes through technological applications.]]></p></abstract>
