JUNK DNA. “The reason why most of these useless pieces have not been weeded out is simply because there was no need to. We should remember that evolution does not work toward a best possible outcome, it can only do the best with what it already has. It’s too much of a risk and too much work to get rid of all these defective and non-functional sequences if they aren’t a burden; the work of simply duplicating these sequences is much lesser than that of getting rid of them.”
