When Did Humans Develop Language


When Did Humans Develop Language

Studies have shown that there is a gene, one chromosome that separates us from animals, allowing us to speak. One chromosome that, differs from any and all of the animals, is chromosome 7, in which, there are links, that other animals with the same chromosome do not have. It’s this difference that allows us to speak and develop language.
To further prove this, there is a family in England, which have a heavy speech impediment that impairs their pronunciation and speech. This is not just a single thing either, as there is a child, completely unrelated on a different side of the world, with the same condition. Gene studies have found that these people have missing links in their chromosome 7 gene.
