Nanso asɛm no ne sɛ nkwammoaa ho nsɛm a “wɔakyerɛw” no so mfaso ne sɛn? Nea ɛhia sɛ yɛbisa koraa ne sɛ, ‘Nsɛm no nyinaa fi he?’

NSƐM A ƐBOA NKWAMMOAA

Ebia woabisa wo ho pɛn sɛ, ‘Ɛyɛ dɛn koraa na aba bi nyini bɛyɛ dua kɛseɛ anaa mmadwoa nyini bɛyɛ nipa?’ Wo su ne wo nipaban nso ɛ, woabisa wo ho nea ɛyɛe a wonyaeɛ? Ne nyinaa wɔ wo DNA mu.

Ɛkame ayɛ sɛ nkwammoaa nyinaa wɔ DNA. Wohwɛ DNA ho mfoni a, wobɛka sɛ atwedeɛ bi a wɔakyinkyim no. Sɛ wofa nnipa DNA sɛɛ a, nneɛma a ɛhyehyɛ “atwedeɛ” no mu no bɛyɛ ɔpepepem mmiɛnsa. Nneɛma a ɛhyehyɛ mu no yɛ mmienu mmienu na ne nyinaa yɛ nnan.

Ɛfi 1960 reba na wɔfii ase tee saa asɛm no ase yie.

Ɛnnɛ, wɔtumi fa akwan horow so kora nneɛma te sɛ mfoni, nnyegyeeɛ, ne nsɛm so. Sɛ yɛbɛyɛ nhwɛso a, kɔmputa wɔ akwan a ɛfa so kora nneɛma so. Saa ara na nkwammoaa nso kora nsɛm wɔ DNA mu. Sɛ nkwammoaa mu kyekyɛ anaa abɔde bi nya ne sɛso a, emu biara nya ne DNA. Wei na ɛma abɔde biara nya ne su.

Sɛ yɛse yɛrekyerɛw bacteria ho asɛm a, yɛbɛhia nwoma a ɛkura kratafa mmaako, mmaako 1,000

Wɔkora nsɛm wɔ nkwammoaa no mu kɔsi bere a ɛho bɛhia. Ɛtɔ da a na ɛhia sɛ nkwammoaa foforo a ɛyɛ den bɛsi nea ayɛ mmerɛ anaa awu ananmu anaa ɛde su bi ma abɔde foforo. Nsɛm dodow sɛn na DNA tumi kora so? Ma yɛnhwɛ aboa ketekete te sɛ bacteria. Germanni nyansahufo bi a wɔfrɛ no Bernd-Olaf Küppers kaa sɛ: “Nea ɛbɛma yɛate asɛm no ase no, yɛmfa no sɛ yɛrekyerɛw bacteria ho asɛm. Yɛbɛhia nwoma a ɛkura kratafa apem na akɔ mu.” Enti ɔbenfo David Deamer kyerɛwee sɛ: “Yɛhwɛ nneɛma nketenkete te sɛ bacteria mpo a, yɛhu sɛ ɛho nsɛm nni ano.” Ɛnneɛ nipa nso ɛ? Küppers buaa sɛ: “Sɛ worekyerɛw nnipa DNA ho nsɛm a, ɛbɛgye nwomakorabea kɛseɛ na ne nyinaa akɔ hɔ.”

“WƆAKYERƐW NA OBIARA ATUMI ATE ASEƐ”

Nwomanimfoɔ taa ka sɛ DNA yɛ “awosu a wɔakyerɛw wɔ kasa bi mu.” Küppers kaa sɛ, saa asɛm yi nyɛ “kasakoa bi kɛkɛ.” Mmom no, sɛnea “kasa biara” wɔ ne mmara no, saa ara na DNA nso wɔ ne deɛ. Yɛbɛtwa no tiaa a, DNA wɔ “mmara” a ɛde yɛ adwuma, na sɛnea wɔahyehyɛ “mmara” no, ɛdi so pɛpɛɛpɛ.

Enti sɛ yɛbɛka a, obi ho nsɛm a “wɔakyerɛw” wɔ ne DNA mu no na ɛkyerɛ sɛnea nneɛma bɛkeka abom wɔ nkwammoaa mu, sɛnea aduane ho akwankyerɛ a obi bɛdi so boa ma ɔtumi yɛ aduane pɔtee bi no. Sɛ nhwɛso no, nsɛm a “wɔakyerɛw” wɔ DNA mu na ɛboa ma yɛnya nnompe mu nkwammoaa, ntini mu nkwammoaa, ne wedeɛ mu nkwammoaa. Richard Dawkins yɛ abɔde ho ɔbenfo, na ɔkyerɛw sɛ: “Ahoma a ɛkura DNA mu no nyinaa yɛ awosu mu nsɛm a wɔakyerɛw wɔ mu. Wohwɛ a, wobɛka sɛ asɛm yi nyɛ nokware, nanso wɔakyerɛw na obiara atumi ate aseɛ.”

Dawid bɔɔ Onyankopɔn mpae sɛ: “Berɛ a meyɛ mogyatoa mpo no, w’ani hunuu me, na wɔtwerɛɛ m’akwaa nyinaa wɔ wo nwoma mu.” (Dwom 139:16) Ɛwom, Dawid de kasakoa na ɛyɛɛ adwuma, nanso nea ɔkaeɛ no yɛ nokware turodoo te sɛ Bible akyerɛwfo a aka no. Wɔn mu biara ammɔ ne srɛ mu anka biribiara da, na saa ara nso na wɔn mu biara anto anansesɛm.—2 Samuel 23:1, 2; 2 Timoteo 3:16.
