Scientists have once again turned their attention to a mysterious blood type that still raises many questions among researchers - we're talking about the Rhesus-negative blood group (Rh-). According to the latest data, carriers of this blood group have unique genetic characteristics that may be the key to unlocking ancient mysteries of human evolution.

Research has shown that the Rhesus-negative factor occurs in less than 15% of the Earth's population, and its origin remains a subject of scientific debate. Some geneticists suggest that this blood type may have appeared as a result of a natural mutation related to adaptation to infections or environmental conditions. However, there is also a more unusual theory: according to some scientists, Rh- may be a trace of an ancient genetic lineage that is uncharacteristic for most modern humans.

Of particular interest is the fact that women with Rh- more often face immunological problems during pregnancy if the fetus is Rh+. This unique biological phenomenon, which is not fully explained, fuels interest in the "mysterious genetic code" of this group.

Research in this area continues, and scientists hope that further DNA analysis of people with Rhesus-negative blood will help shed light on the origin of this rare mutation and its impact on human health and evolution.
