Not long ago someone asked if it is possible to cross-fertilizate a human with
a monkey.  Yesterday I read in a scientific magazine that it is impossible.  It
is true that human chromosomes have many similarities other monkeys' chromo-
somes, but they are a little rearranged.

If you combine a set of human and a set of monkey-chromosomes, such a combina-
tion cannot give rise to a specimen of anything.  You see, two of each rudiment
is needed to develop a foetus.
