Re: Any SOLID arguments against evolution?

... is composed of 146 amino acids (Perutz, 1978). Both alpha and beta globin proteins share similar secondary and tertiary structures, each with 8 helical segments (labeled helix A-G) (Keates, 2004). Each globin chain also contains one heme molecule." FZ you have a diagram of the heme molecule. ...
