True, they descend from a common ancestor.


How do you use Common Ancestry in a sentence?

Common ancestry refers to the shared biological heritage between two or more species, indicating that they all descend from a common ancestor. For example, scientists study common ancestry to understand the evolutionary relationships between different species and trace their evolutionary history.


What letter does a clade look like on a cladogram?

On a cladogram, a clade typically resembles a branching structure, which can sometimes be visualized as a "V" or "Y" shape. Each branch point, or node, represents a common ancestor, and the branches leading from it represent the descendant lineages. The clade includes all the organisms that descend from that common ancestor, forming a distinct grouping on the diagram.


Which organisms have possible common ancestor?

What was LU-CA?

LUCA stands for Last Universal Common Ancestor, the last organism that is the common ancestor of all life on Earth.


The mammal trait of having fur is an example of a derived character because?

A synapomorphic (derived) character is defined as a trait that multiple taxa and their last common ancestor possess, but that the ancestor of this last common ancestor did not possess. The multiple taxa in this case could be the 29 orders of mammals, all of which have fur. All mammals descend from cynodonts. It is probable that cynodonts were covered in fur. Cynodonts evolved (with various steps in between) from early amniotes, which did not have fur. We do not know when exactly fur appeared in the evolution of mammals.

What is our evidence of Luca, the common ancestor that we can link all living organisms to?

Scientists have identified Luca as the Last Universal Common Ancestor, or the common ancestor of all living organisms. Evidence for Luca comes from the study of genetic material and the similarities found in the genetic code of different species.


Do humans descend from gorillas?

No, we are not descended from chimps, and no one believes that we are. *********************** It's an interesting question, since all life on earth comes from the first living organisms on the planet. Therefore, you could say that we are related to chimps, as we probably have a common ancestor, however we don't "descend" from them. If you are interested in evolution I recommend reading Darwin's "Origin of species".
