Human Evolution

Since it first defined, evolution theory has been a debate. According to Charles Darwin, our ancestor is chimpanzees, but is it true? Darwin believes that chimpanzees evolves and become who we are today. If it is true, then why the chimpanzees still share the habitat with us. The controversial theory is in a denial. More scientists do research to evolution and provide some answer to the evolution process.

The world widely known giant reptiles such as dinosaurs has been wiped out from the earth sixty mya. Due to the lack of water, some of the dinosaurs shrinks them selves and become small reptiles that live underground. The fossil we’ve found and some modern birds and reptiles today share the same gene. Based on the research and evidences, we have to agree with the evolution theory.

Animal evolutions have been proven, what about human? Scientists try to trace back to find our ancestors, and finally making a conclusion that we share gene with chimpanzees, gorilla, other creatures, and even plants. Our characteristics derive us into groups that vary across lineages; therefore, we can build our phylogenetic tree that represents our ancestry.
