Is there a phylogenetic tree of all biological organisms from their original creation up until the present? Such a tree would cover the age of the Dinosaurs.
There is a phylogenetic tree posted on the internet which extends the 3 domains tree of Carl Woese, into 7 domains which covers the age of the Dinosarus.
It indicates that everything evolved from two types of mini-virus, which could be called the Last Universal Common Ancestors (LUCA's).
Can this be right?
