The most recent common ancestor on a phylogenetic tree is the most recent species from which all other species on the tree have descended. Understanding this ancestor helps scientists trace the evolutionary relationships among different species and determine how they are related to each other through shared ancestry.
The principle that states all species have descended from a common ancestor is known as the theory of evolution. Proposed by Charles Darwin in the 19th century, this theory explains how populations change over time through the process of natural selection, leading to the diversity of life we see today.
