For one, both humans and bats are in the class Mamalia, which is reason enough to suggest that they come from a common ancestor. The modern classification system, developed by Linnaeus, and modified by scientists such as Darwin and Lyell, is based of common ancestors. So, all mammals come from a common ancestor. How do we know this? Well, all mammals share a peculiar trait: All mammals are completely indistinguishable at the pre embryonic stage. This proves that bats and humans come from common ancestry.
What else can I help you with?
Was Charles Darwin the scientist who stated that humans have evolved from apes?
Charles Darwin proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection, which suggests that humans and apes share a common ancestor. He did not specifically say that humans evolved from apes, but rather that both species descended from a common evolutionary ancestor.
Name the last level at which dogs and humans shared a common ancestor?
The last common ancestor of dogs and humans lived approximately 95 million years ago, during the Cretaceous Period. This ancestor was a small mammal that was neither a dog nor a human, but was a distant relative of both species.
Which of the following facts implies that humans and fish had a common ancestor?
Embryos from both species have gills
Did humans evolve from chimps?
No. Both groups evolved from a common ancestor, which was neither a chimp nor a human.
How monkeys form humans?
Monkeys do not directly evolve into humans. However, humans and monkeys do share a common ancestor. Over millions of years, evolutionary processes led to the development of different species, with humans evolving separately from monkeys. The evolutionary path that led to modern humans involved significant changes in brain size, tool use, and social behavior.
What if your friend says that humans have evolved from apes How would you respond to that statement using the information provided in class?
I would explain that humans and apes share a common ancestor, not that humans evolved directly from apes. The theory of evolution suggests that humans and apes diverged from a common ancestor millions of years ago, with each species evolving separately over time. The evidence for this comes from comparative anatomy, genetics, and the fossil record.
Was Charles Darwin the scientist who stated that humans have evolved from apes?
Charles Darwin proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection, which suggests that humans and apes share a common ancestor. He did not specifically say that humans evolved from apes, but rather that both species descended from a common evolutionary ancestor.
How were humans created eg apes monkeys or god or evolved on our own?
The theory of evolution suggests that humans evolved from earlier primates over millions of years through a process of natural selection. This means that humans share a common ancestor with other primates, such as apes and monkeys. The theory of evolution is supported by a wide range of scientific evidence from fields such as paleontology, genetics, and comparative anatomy.
Do humans and bats have a common ancestor?
Yes, humans and bats share a common ancestor. Both humans and bats belong to the group of mammals, which evolved from a common ancestor millions of years ago.
Do seals and humans share a common ancestor?
yes they do in facts share a common ancestor.
What does it say when humans and chimpanzees have similar DNA?
Humans and chimpanzees having similar DNA suggests a close evolutionary relationship between the two species. It indicates a common ancestor from which both humans and chimpanzees diverged millions of years ago. The similarity in DNA points to shared genetic heritage and biological similarities.
What does the principle of common descent imply about humans?
Apes and humans descended from the same common ancestor.
When is the common ancestor of humans and chimps thought to have lived?
It's thought to be about 5 to 7 million years since humans and chimps shared a common ancestor.
How are humans and chimpanzees phylogenetically related?
They share a common ancestor.
What process says you share a common ancestor?
You might be reffering to Newtons Laws of Evolution, but then, that is not a process. In fact, there is no process dedicated to proving we have a common ancestor. It is a piecing together of speperate works of research that help us draw this conclusion. The process(es) that are relevant to your query: Mitochondrial Lineage is used to age our last common ancestor. i.e) By estimating the rate at which mutations occur in mtDNA (Mitochondrial DNA), the age of the common ancestral mtDNA type can be estimated.Molecular evidence suggests that between 8 and 4 mya (approx 1-2 million years ago), first the gorillas, and then the chimpanzee (genus Pan) split off from the line leading to the humans. And: The Homo genus (Man) diverged from the australopithecines (Our "Common ancestor") about 2 million years ago in Africa. Scientists have estimated that humans branched off from their common ancestor with chimpanzees around then.
What evidence suggests Neanderthals were like present day humans?
Hi
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.
