What is a group of species that includes a single common ancestor and all descendents?
Unless life evolved multiple times on Earth all species share a common ancestor with each other. The list is for all practical purposes limitless. Humans and wolves Guinee Pigs and Wales Cock Roaches and Mice and so on.....
What is common descent?
Darwin's theory of common decent focuses on the proposition that those of common decent shared common ancestors. The theory also espouses the last universal decent from which all life descended.
What were Charles Darwin's concepts?
Charles Darwin's theories are known as Darwinism. His most well-known theory is his Theory of Evolution which states that all life is related and has descended from a common ancestor: the birds and the bananas, the fishes and the flowers.
What led Darwin to believe that organisms originate from a common ancestor?
Darwin observed that high birthrates and a shortage of life's necessities forced organisms into a constant "struggle for existence", both against the environment and against each other is which led Darwin to propose his theory of constitution
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".

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 fact that all organisms have DNA as their genetic material is evidence that?
We all current life has a single common ancestor.
Do birds and reptiles share a common ancestor?
Yes. If you go back far enough, all life on Earth shares a common ancestor.
Darwin's claim that all of life descended from a common ancestor is best supported with evidence from?
molecular biology

Are life forms related why?
Life forms are indeed related. The reason is due to all life forms starting out with a single, unicellular common ancestor, with that common creature radiating into multiple forms to take advantage of its environment.
Did humans evolve yes or no?
yes all animals evolved from a "common ancestor" and are still evolvingrelationships between all animals are summarised in "trees of life" that propose possible scenaris of evolution according to available scientific datas.You can visualise on them when divergence occured between animals from a common ancestor
What best describes the theroy of evolution?
It describes via what mechanism modern life forms derived from their common ancestors.
Does the great diversity of life forms is the result of adaptations to different environments?
The great diversity of life form is the result of adaptations to different environments. It is also due to descent from a common ancestor.
Did a human evolve from an ape?
No, not exactly. However, going into the past Apes and Humans have a common ancestor. Think of it like a tree, the things living today are the tips of the branches of the tree. But these tips join together as you move towards the tree trunk. The tree trunk is the common ancestor of ALL life on Earth.
What is the name of the first living thing on earth?
There is no particular name for it, since we do not know exactly what that organism was. We do, however, have a general name LUCA, which stands for Last Universal Common Ancestor, meaning the last living thing that was the ancestor of all life on Earth.
