Day 3. "The interesting fact about our DNA"
Today I read an interesting article. And now I want to tell about it)
Did you know that women see colors better than men because of their DNA? I didn't know about it.
Scientists say the reason is in our DNA. Our chromosomes contain DNA, which controls many things about us. The ability to see the colour red is carried by the X chromosome. Men have only one X chromosome, but women have two of them. This means that it’s easier for women to see red. This was important in prehistoric times when women were looking for a fruit to eat. They needed to choose a right fruit, so they had to be able to see a difference between different colours. If they made a mistake, they could kill their families and themselves. So, it was more important for women to see different colours, while men had a other important skills.

--> "Fruit" is almost always an uncountable noun.
--> Good synthesis and explanation of how the chromosomes differ from each other and why that's important.
They needed to choose a the right fruit, so they had to be able to see a the difference between different colours. If they made a mistake, they could kill (also: poison) their families and themselves. So, it was more important for women to see different colours, while men had a other important skills.
-->Great summary on a super interesting topic!

Men have only one X chromosome, but women have two of them. This means that it’s easier for women to see red.
This ability was important in prehistoric times when women were looking looked/searched for a fruit to eat. They needed to choose a ripe right fruit, so they had to be able to see a clear difference between the different colours.
