What percentage of Lion and Tiger genes are the same?
827312
Apparently quite a few, because the can be successfully mated to produce offspring.

According to the videos ive just seen, the tigers better!\n\nBut the lion wins in this one:\n\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4318948967926803903\n\nOf course either can win really... it depends on the animal and if a mother is protecting her young or whatever.

According to my sources:\n\n"Today only about 5,000 wild tigers live in Asia."

Offspring between a lion and tiger:\n\nmale tiger + female lion = tigon\nmale lion + female tiger = liger

The lion would win. The lion and the tiger are almost evenly matched in cunning, hunting skills and speed, however, the lion has the advantage of more muscle strength and thereby more stamina. As the fight will get stretched, the scales will tip in favor of the lion. This is the basic rule of one-to-one combat - that the longer the battle extends, the factor of physical strength becomes more and more decisive. So clearly, here, lion has the advantage. \n\nIn one of the programs on Discovery, a similar research was carried out in which the strengths and weakness of both these predators were matched. They made out models of them and calculated the force applied and all other factors in various consitions. The lion came on tops.

You've probably heard the fact that our DNA is 98% the same as that of a monkey, what many people don't know is that our DNA is also about 80% the same as that of a fruit fly. Dog DNA probably comes in somewhere in between. I don't think anyone has ever done a study on that though.

Siegfried & Roy are Las Vegas entertainers. Their long running show of magic and illusion was famous for including white tigers.\n\nWhite tigers are Bengal tigers or tigers of mixed Bengal/Amur ancestry with pink noses, white-to-creme coloured fur and black, grey or chocolate-coloured stripes. Their eyes are usually blue, but may be green or amber. There are several hundred captive white tigers worldwide (this number increases annually), all of whom can trace their ancestry back to a white Bengal tigers caught in Rewa, India.\n\nWhite tigers are formed from an inbreeding on a mother to a son, a sister to a brother or father to a daughter.\n\nDue to the opinion that their colouration is widely considered striking, white tigers have become popular attractions in zoos and entertainment that showcases exotic animals; the magicians Siegfried and Roy are famous for using several trained white tigers in their shows. Contrary to popular belief, white tigers are not a separate species in their own right, but are a mutant form of the orange Bengal tigers.

our genetic code is 99.999 % similar.\n\nsince human species has not arrived too long (on a geological/whatever scale) the varation of genes between humans is very little.\n\nthere is much more genetic varaibility between chimps, monkeys, cows, rats etc....than between humans.

Lions have 38 chromosomes (or 19 paired).

tigers are stronger and faster and "fitter" but in a fight the lion would win. cause they have been  fighting since young and are very well trained. they have also more hair and fats to protect them against bites

No even though where similar geneticly where not that close. I think the only species that can do that are a zebra/donkey and  donkey/horse

The lot of genetic sequencing. Although, both being mammals, there is a great deal of genetic similarity. However, a change of less that 1% of an organism's genetic code makes a vastly different creature, such as in the difference between a chimpanzee and a human, which share between 98% and 99% of the same DNA.

c is the right answer.\n\nA makes no sense in relation to the question\nB natural selection has a bit of randomness in it of course but is basically not random. I mean, the fastest critter in the herd may have had an unlucky day and so he will not procreate, oops. But otherwise, the slowest are intentionally selected by the lion and that is never random.\nD just isn't true, plenty of proof there.

it's at least 99.99%... the 0.01% difference is what pharmacogenetics/genomics is trying to exploit... their are hap-maps and genetic diversity studies being generated by companies such as perlegen and affymetrix... check out their sites.\n\nthe single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) make genomic profiles unique, even among the unique profiles, there are clusters or groupings with similar patterns...
