#6: Family Resemblance
While not exactly an important fact on a global scale, this image does contain something that can be universally recognized and universally appreciated. This girl has exactly the same eyebrows as the man pictured, who happens to be her great-great-grandfather. If you need proof of genetic heredity, here it is.
We really like to look at our children and say “she has my nose” or “he has my nose hairs” but it would seem these traits really do go back for generations, tracing a genetic history back to much earlier ancestors than our parents or even grandparents. At least, that means we can’t take the blame.
