An international team has discovered that each species of primates, including humans, has an enormous amount of unique fragments in its genome. The study, involving two researchers at the Institute of Evolutionary Biology (joint center of the University Pompeu Fabra and the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas), helps to understand the mechanisms of human evolution and the basis of various diseases are unique in its kind. The research is published in
Nature, a special edition dedicated to the celebration of the bicentenary of the birth of the English naturalist Charles Darwin.
During the last decade, the scientific community has accepted the hypothesis that humans and their closest living relatives, chimpanzees, differed at only 1.24% of their DNA sequences. However, the findings of this study show that this estimate is incorrect and that in fact the number of differences can be up to 10 times higher.

The reverse osmosis process is that by which reverses the flow of water molecules through a semipermeable membrane, as a result of applying pressure to the solution of higher concentration.
You may then obtain pure water from a high concentration solution through a mechanical method

With the growth of world population, demand for fresh water has increased considerably, if we add to this industrial growth, the water and wastewater treatment have become something important for the development of society.
It is for this reason that the water was declared a scarce resource. With the development of modern technology, have created new alternatives for water and wastewater treatment such as reverse osmosis, this has been a massive development in the field of desalination of brackish water, especially in the industrial field, replacing or complement the methods previously used as a type of method is not exclusive of others.
