... The problem is that we humans think it’s “all about us”! We often define progress by how it affects our species. But that definition is anthropocentric. It is tempting to see evolution as a grand progressive ladder with Homo sapiens emerging at the top. But evolution produces a tree, not a ladder — ...

This is only a result of two separate species adapting to similar environments over time. o This is called ________________. Structures with ...
