Pros of hiring an architect. 1  You, as the owner, have an agent to keep an eye on the contractor and workmanship throughout the project. The architect has a fiduciary responsibility to the owner (under a full service contract). 2  Better design.
Converting centiMorgans into percentages. In order to get an approximate percentage of shared DNA from a Family Tree DNA Family Finder test, take all of the segments above 5 cM, add them together and then divide by 68. The way the calculation works is that your total genome in cMs with the Family Finder test is 6770 cM.
This is a deceptively simple question. First - how to even measure percentage of shared DNA is problematic, especially when there are different numbers of chromosomes between species. I think the consensus is that chimps are closest to humans at around 98% and Gorillas are second at around 96%. After that it gets murky.
