Humans share a common ancestor with several hominids, including Neanderthals, Denisovans, and other extinct species such as Homo habilis and Homo erectus. These species are part of the hominin lineage that diverged from a common ancestor with chimpanzees and bonobos approximately 6 to 7 million years ago. The evolutionary tree of hominids illustrates the complex relationships and adaptations that have occurred over millions of years, leading to the emergence of modern humans (Homo sapiens).

What other hominids evolved from the same common ancestor as human?
homminids evolved from the same common
Did gorillas evolve from humans?
Humans did not evolve from chimpanzees. Humans share a common ancestor with modern African apes, like gorillas and chimpanzees. Scientists believe this common ancestor existed 5 to 8 million years ago. Shortly thereafter, the species diverged into two separate lineages. One of these lineages ultimately evolved into gorillas and chimps, and the other evolved into early human ancestors called hominids.
Is it rue that humans have not descended from chimpanzees but do have a common ancestor with them?
Humans did not evolve from chimpanzees. According the the theory of evolution, all types of organisms share a common ancestor. Those "basic" species evolved into other species. So humans and chimpanzees are descended from a common primate ancestor Humans decended from a common ancestor, one of which evolved to the chimps and the other to humans. So we are therefore the 5th ape. All living things share a universal common ancestor as we are the products of evolution by natural selection. And there are skeletal remains to prove it.
Were Humans made from Gorrilas?
NO please read the bible ======================== No. The closest primates to humans are chimpanzees. We all (humans, chimpanzes, gorillas, and other primates) evolved, over millions of years, from some common ancestor, but anthropologists have not yet identified that common ancestor.
What of these was not a characteristic of hominids that lived before humans?
One characteristic of hominids that did not exist before humans is the ability to create and use advanced tools. This skill of crafting and utilizing tools is a unique trait that distinguishes humans from other hominids.
Humans and other humanlike creatures that walk upright?
Hominids
Did man and ape have a common ancestor?
An 'ape' is any primate belonging to the superfamily Hominoidea, and this includes humans, so we 'are' apes, along with gorillas, chimpanzees and orangutans. All these species though have a common ancestor.
Is it true that we all started off as gorillas?
No. Humans and gorillas evolved from the same common ancestor, but one did not come from the other.

What organisms share the most recent common ancestor?
Organisms that share the most recent common ancestor are those that are closely related in evolutionary terms, such as humans and chimpanzees. They both belong to the family Hominidae and diverged from a common ancestor about 6 to 7 million years ago. Other examples include all mammals, which share a common ancestor that lived around 200 million years ago. The concept of a common ancestor highlights the interconnectedness of life through evolutionary processes.
Are apes from human descendant?
Yes. We're not just descendant from them, we are apes (and therefore must logically also be descendant from apes). Of course we're not descended from any modern species of ape: we share a common ancestor with the other modern apes, which would also have been an ape.
What is the name for human like primates who lived about 4 to 6 million years ago?
Most scientists believe our common ancestor existed 5 to 8 million years ago. Then two species broke off into separate lineages, one ultimately evolving into gorillas and chimps, the other evolving into early humans called hominids.
