Question

What is the name of Darwins' hypothetical intermediate living form between humans and apes?

Answer 1

There is no intermediate living form between humans and apes, because man *is* an ape. We are a particular species of apes, belonging to the sub-family of the African great apes, which includes chimpanzees and gorillas.

They are not our ancestors but our cousins. The correct statement is not that man evolved from apes but that man and the other modern apes evolved from a common ancestor.

Answer 2

The Rosieodonnellopithecus.

Answer 3

the missing link

Answer 4

Ann Coulter

Answer 5

A transitional fossil or transitional form "Missing link"

The Australopithecus afarensis  or know also as "Lucy"

Answer 6

I'm afraid Darwin had nothing to do with it.

Here are some of our relatives:

Australopithecus ramidus - 5 to 4 million years ago

Australopithecus afarensis - 4 to 2.7 million years ago

Australopithecus africanus - 3.0 to 2.0 million years ago

Australopithecus robustus - 2.2 to 1.0 million years ago

Homo habilis - 2.2 to 1.6 million years ago

Homo erectus - 2 to 0.4 million years ago

Homo sapiens - 400,000 to 200,000 years ago

Homo sapiens neandertalensis - 200,000 to 30,000 years ago

Homo sapiens sapiens - 130,000 years ago to present

Before them, between 5 and 10 million years ago, there was our common ancestor with the apes. This is what is romantically called "The missing link".

And it is not hypothetical, it just hasn't been found yet. In reality, any of the Australopithecus could be considered an intermediate, but they were more man-like than ape-like.
