Evolution of life
Three and a half billion years ago, there
was nothing on planet earth but nucleic acid, lying in the sea. About 1.6
billion years later, bacteria formed in the sea, along with archaea and
eukaryotes. At that point, life began in the sea. About 7 million years
later, living things in the sea formed, creating new species such as octopuses,
snails and worms. About 600 million years later, animals from the sea, began
moving to land thus creating life on land.
The first fish to walk on land was called
Tiktaalik, but unfortunately, the Tiktaalik species went extinct long ago.
Overtime, fish from the sea would evolve to new, different species. Two hundred
and thirty million years later, Tetrapods, amphibians, Marsupials, Reptiles,
Birds, and Eutherians became new species. Over time, those species evolved into
a lot of different species such as Tuatara, Kangaroos, Elephants and much more.
Eight million years ago, Eutherians later
evolved into primates. Primates learned to fight, hunt and a lot of other
things we learn now (besides modern-day things), therefore, making primates
smarter overtime.
After two million years, primates evolved
into humans. Overtime, humans gained more intelligence and started creating
modern technology we use now.
