While coding differences are minimal, gene insertions, deletions, and duplications, particularly in non-coding regions, play a significant role in gene regulation and may explain the distinct traits, such as language capabilities, observed in humans.

It explains inhalation and exhalation processes, the muscle interactions that expand and contract the thoracic cavity, and mentions an average respiratory rate of 15-18 breaths per minute.

By determining the life span of individuals in a population and how many offspring they produce human demographers and ecologists can summarize key aspects of a population, such as average life span, generation time, and growth rate. This allows comparisons between different populations and species.
