The Missing Link

Charles Darwin first drew theories of man evolving from apes. It was a product of vigorous research and a lot of explorations to have proofs for his 'Theory of Evolution'.

Technological advancements made it possible for Darwin's theory to come in hand. DNA samples ancient remains were put into research to find out how we had possibly evolved to complexity. But there was a glitch. It was discovered that a chain of nucleic acids were not present to support the human evolution theory, the missing link.



Excerpt from Social Science Class of Ms. Cherry Joy Billedo:

There is truth behind the missing link, and that DNA samples providing proofs for this might be found beneath the ocean floors. Apes as we know are vulnerable creatures, and if the theory of evolution implies that we came from apes, then those apes must have developed a way to protect themselves from their predators. Apes might have lived and evolved to sustain their lives underwater. This way, living might have been easier for them.

There are proofs for this theory: (1) Modern human nose is pointed downwards, not allowing water to easily flow in; (2) human legs are longer than those of apes' for pedal in water; (3) human skin has less hair allowing less drag as we swim into the water; (4) newborns are capable of 'breathing' underwater - we even lived inside a womb full of no-air.
