Abstract

With rare exceptions, each sexually reproduced individual is endowed with a distinctive genetic constitution. Nevertheless living organisms share many genes, the greatest level of sharing characterizing those belonging to the same species. The total number of such species is unknown, but probably exceeds ten million, the vast majority of them being small invertebrate animals.
