Is it true that nearly all the major phyla present on the earth today evolved from bacteria in 10 million year
I just read that in a pop science book and i wondered if any of our biology friends could corroberate it for me?
Answer
Your pop science book is right about what happened, but if it really says 10 million years, it is way off on the time line.3 billion years is closer to right and that is truly an unimaginable amount of time for most of us.
