Question

These two images show the evolutionary relationship between humans and chimpanzees. Which chart more accurately depicts the process of evolution?

Answer 1

Answer:

Image 2 shows how new species evolve from existing species during evolution. A new species does not replace an ancestral species as soon as it evolves. The ancestral species may continue to survive, or it may eventually become extinct. So, the second image depicts the process of evolution accurately. Image 1 suggests that primates evolved directly into humans, which is not accurate.

Answer 2

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no charts attached, we can say that the process that more accurately depicts the evolution of humankind is the following. Humans developed form early forms of primates. After Australopithecus, the Homo Abilis appeared approximately 1.5 million years ago. Then, the Homo Erectus approximately 300 000-200 000 years ago. Somehow we cohabited with the Nehardental, and then we appeared as the Homo Sapiens. Today, scientists state that we are related to bonobos and chimpanzees.
