Just because a whale has a bone that resembles the hip bone of hippotomus does not make them brothers or sisters. Who can state with certainty that, for example, a cyanobacterium actually possessed life...those particular prokaryotes, by means of their stromatolites, played a major part in the...
Sorry for the typos, I'll take my time in the future. should read: survive past the first three or "four" seconds.
