Question

Is really the gorrila was our ancestor?if no where from we came?

Answer 1

Gorillas and humans share a common ancestor.  At some point in biological evolution, this common ancestor evolved into separate species.  One species would eventually evolve into modern humans (Homo sapiens sapiens), the other would evolve into gorillas (Gorilla gorilla), and still, others would branch off into other great ape species including chimpanzees, bonobos, and orangutans.

Answer 2

No, the gorilla was NOT our ancestor. Humans and gorillas had a common ancestor between 11 and 9 million years ago. Similarly, humans and monkeys had a common ancestor about 50 million years ago. Think of evolution as a branching pattern. Humans are one branch of the tree. Gorillas are another branch. Monkeys, orangutans, chimpanzees are other distinct and separate branches.

Answer 3

No, we and gorrillas both came from a common ancestor. We and the other apes split off from each other over time.

Has a lot of information about human evolution.

Answer 4

No gorilla is not our ancestor.We r all Gods unique  creation.

Answer 5

no!!   we came from god he made us

Answer 6

actually i read that our ancestors were from Africa and we have migrated to different places due to some disasters as that of godwana land getting divided and then also due to other phenomenons.i dont know till how much this is correct.

Answer 7

Are you really that ignorant? Humans and gorillas are related but we are far more closely related to Chimpanzees. So no, they're not our ancestors and neither are Chimpanzees. If you can't figure out why I guess you just aren't intelligent enough to be told the answer.

Answer 8

The idea that we have a common ancestor with primates doesn't really hold water....if we have only 94-96 percent of our DNA in comon, that means for 3 billion base pairs of genes in our genome, we have a difference of 4-6 percent or 120-180 million individual differences. How could humans have sustained 120-180 million individual beneficial mutations over 10-50 million years when even a single beneficial mutation is rare? The vast majority of mutations are either harmful or neutral.

What evidence do we have that we are having those beneficial mutations today?

We were created by God is the only logical choice.

Answer 9

Gorilla is superior race!

Answer 10

Niotilov was correct.  We have a common ancestor with the Gorilla.  About 8 million years ago (give or take a couple millions) an ape split into two lines possibly because one group got separated from the other.  One evolved into the chimp/human line, the other continued evolving into a gorilla, assuming it wasn't already close enough to a modern gorilla to be considered one which we don't know at this time.  The human chimp line split again around 6 million years, one eventually evolving into humans and a myriad of closely related species.  The other became chimps and bonobos.

Answer 11

Yes yours only. My was Humans. Anyone can tell.

Answer 12

No way, its all myth...he is not

Answer 13

Wow, learn some proper english much? And it was not a gorilla, I've heard it's actually a chimpanzee, since we are 95% like them, the other 5% makes up the monkey-like qualities they possess, the other answerers have better links, you should visit them and learn. Please please PLEASE don't tell me you though that "god" plopped down adam (caucasian) and eve (caucasian) and a few million years later we had all different races and civilizations. *headdesk*
