Is it possible for another species of animal to evolve like humans?

Whales once had legs and lived on the land. They evolved from a terrestrial ungulate (most likely) known as a mesonychid. Snakes also once had legs. Bats gradually evolved wings and the ability to use echolocation (sonar).
Human evolution was pretty minor compared to these other creatures. We evolved skill with language. That seems pretty minor, to me, compared to the ability to fly and snatch bugs out of the air in the dark. Bats are amazing creatures.

What can result in the immediate creation of a new species?
That depends on what you mean by 'immediate'. Drastic rates of evolution are possible in many species, where mutations are either relatively very common or where the environment results in harsh selection. But nothing will make one species "immediately" evolve into another in one generation, or even two or ten.
Can a mushroom evolve?
Mushrooms do not have legs so they can't move.
What occurs when species that were distinct evolve similar traits?
The species probably evolved under similar circumstances and they become more similar as a result. Additionally, they can become more competitive with one another.
What does the sexual reproduction give the species?
Species that reproduce sexually can evolve more rapidly than species that reproduce asexually.
What theory proposes species evolve during short periods of rapid change?
Punctuated equilibrium See link below.
Which animal does an earthworm evolve from?
The earthworm did not evolve,rather it was created as a worm. It did not come from another species,all of it's ancestors were worms.
Is it possible for another species to evolve into something as intelligent as humans?
Theoretically it is possible, but "theoretical" and "probable" are two very, very different things.
Which of the animal phyla was the first to evolve three germ layers?
The first animal phylum to evolve three germ layers was the Cnidaria. These germ layers are the ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm, found in more complex animals for the development of different structures and organs.
Do sea creatures evolve?
Certainly. Every living species can evolve. At some point seaweed evolved out of something, and other plants no doubt evolved out of seaweed-like ancestors. However, no individual plant or animal can evolve in the sense of changing into a different plant or animal in the course of a single lifetime.
Why would an animal evolve shorter legs?
If its environment merited them to need short legs or short legs made them survive longer, then a species would evolve short legs.
Which animal have the potential to to evolve to humanlike?
There is no animal to EVOLVE, but the closest animal to humans is the Chimpanzee.
What is an example of co evolution in the tundra?
This is when one animal will evolve into two different species. Many animals and insects will do this in certain areas.
Why cant new species evolve from natural selection?
They can, and we believe that they do. That's how all the animals (including the human animal) got to be the way they are.
Does an individual a population or a species evolve?
Populations evolve.
Why did compounds that affect the physiology of animal cells evolve in photosynthetic species?
Actually compounds that are neccessary for animal physiology evolve from chlorophlorous specie due to the trend of natural conservation of energy as animal are unable to make food (autotrophs)and due to the composition of well reserve energy supply in green plant
What did the alamosaurus evolve from?
The alamosaurus did not evolve from anything. The alamosaurus is a fiction animal in the game pokemon. It is not a real animal but a animal in a game.
