Evolution, but I think you are looking for something else that escapes me right now.
The principle that all species were derived from common ancestors is known as evolution. This theory was proposed by Charles Darwin in the 19th century and is supported by evidence from various fields of science, including genetics, Paleontology, and comparative anatomy.
Baboons and gorillas are not direct ancestors of humans. Humans share a common ancestor with primates like baboons and gorillas from millions of years ago, but they are not direct descendants of these species. We share a more recent common ancestor with great apes like chimpanzees and bonobos.
Australopithecus afarensis is not a direct ancestor of modern humans but is an ancestral species that lived around 3-4 million years ago. It is believed to be closely related to the common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees. Other hominid species such as Homo habilis and Homo erectus are considered more direct ancestors to modern humans.
Chimpanzees share a common ancestor with humans, which lived around 6-8 million years ago. This common ancestor is believed to be a species of chimpanzee-like ape that gave rise to both modern humans and modern chimpanzees.
Yes, the theory of evolution is well-supported by scientific evidence, including fossil records and genetic studies. Humans share a common ancestor with other primates, and have undergone changes over millions of years to become the species we are today.
Yes, humans are classified as animals and have evolved from earlier primate ancestors over millions of years through the process of evolution. The theory of evolution explains how all species, including humans, have descended from common ancestors through natural selection and adaptation to their environments.
The principle that all species were derived from common ancestors is known as Common descent.

The limbs of Species A have a similar structure to the limbs of Species B, but perform a different function.
Homologous structures.
the sharing of common ancestors within the species' evolutionary history.
yes, theses ancestors are called common decent
It describes via what mechanism modern life forms derived from their common ancestors.
the formation of species
Some traits are derived from the species' genome, and a species is defined as a group of organisms that are genetically similar enough to leave fertile offspring.
Scientists use Ancestors and DNA to group DNA.
