Yes, they would have to.

Explanation:

All humans are 99.9 percent identical and, of that tiny 0.1 percent difference, 94 percent of the variation is among individuals from the same populations. This according to the journal Science published in 2002.

Humans and chimps share a surprising 98.8 percent of their DNA. And to top it off, humans have 50 percent the DNA of bananas.

All of this is the reason that we resemble our parents, cousins and other relatives as well as all other humans.

Your DNA and your parents' varies but slightly. (0.1%).
