  • Moving along from the anthropoids, we arrive at the Miocene apes. This is where our lineage branches off from monkeys. Important species from these time include Kamoyapithecus, Proconsul, and Ekembo. Where did these organisms live and what was their behavior? Let's take a look!

We can't help but see things from our own perspective, but that's just a minute little representation of time, and space. And to think of all of the events that came before us. Before life. Before the earth formed. And the future? You got me all excited over here thinking about nature.

    It should be noted that we have no fossil evidence for knuckle walking Miocene apes. The estimate for our split from gorillas is based on speculation of a “knuckle walking” ancestor in the late Miocene, which we have no evidence for. The genetic estimate for the split ranges at 8 million years ago at the earliest and 6 million years ago at the most recent, with potential hybridization continuing up to 3-4 million years ago. Our split with chimpanzees is stated at the earliest of 6 million years ago and most recent at 4 million years ago.

    • @ungulatemanalpha
      @ungulatemanalpha 5 месяцев назад +3

      Notably, it's plausible that facultative bipedality evolved while these apes were in the trees, since it's a useful means of locomotion when you're brachiating around. If this is the case, there likely wouldn't have been a step where the apes that became obligate bipeds ever had to knuckle-walk.

    • @slipknottin
      @slipknottin 5 месяцев назад

      Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. We have virtually no fossil remains of apes in that ~8 million year range, apart from some fragments and teeth.

    You do know that just because the dna is similar doesn't really mean anything because dna is not the same entirely. Why do you guys assume that just because parts of the dna are the same they are related? If one piece of the dna is diifferent then that makes it different. You guys see the similarities in apes and humans but on the other side there is alot of differences. Also there is dna strands out there that when you break them down they eventually reach a point where you can't break them down anymore. Also stepping out side of dna why is it that humans are vastly different to other animals mentally. Like it's a massive gap. Almost as if we are meant to do something. Even if evolution was real it doesn't negate creationism because the evolution would have had to come from somewhere and the big bang theory has been debunked. Also even if the big bang theory was true that would also have to come from somewhere. From the universe down to our dna. Our constantly working cells that never sleep. The minerals in the earth. Volcanic eruption rapidly cooled by water and plants produceing oxigen. I would say that the complex design of everything is to conveniant to not be a creation. You can firgure out what it is or name it. You can figure how to use it. But you can never figure why it's there in the first place. LOL lion king "look beyond what you see".

      genetic similarity between two species isn't just some meaningless percentage, that's very real traits encoded in there which did, do, or only sometimes get translated into actual properties visible on the organism... can you explain to me why exactly do humans have disabled genes for forming a proper monkey-like tail, a full on fur coat or canine teeth? these genes shouldn't be present if they weren't active and useful at some point, meanwhile nowadays if a child is (very rarely, thankfully) born with a mutation which activates them, it ends up being nothing but a huge disability that can only be resolved by a surgery

      Why do you guys just assume that because we do not yet know the precise cause of the big bang or the exact moment at which life formed, that it must mean your god did it? Once upon a time we thought there were droughts because some deity was angry and therefore we had to sacrifice humans to appease it. Now we understand climate science. The fact that something is not currently totally clear to science in no way suggests the existence of, nor necessitates the existence of intelligent design.
