: I have a theory that birds are descended from insects, because: 1/ Insects knew how to fly already (being small, these creatures could take advantage of the slightest breeze to become and remain airborne.) 2/ The avian lung is more like the insect's system, and remote from those of dinosaurs/reptiles. 3/ Insects have wings already. 4/ Insects have been around longer. 5/ Insects have shorter generations allowing faster natural selection. This is a botanical group. If you want to have a theory like that, at least make it botany related. Birds are descended from maple seeds. 1) Maple seeds fly. 2) Things always develop into better things, so birds fly better than maple seeds. 3) Maple seeds have a wing, birds have two wings, insects have 4 wings, insects are descended from birds. 4) Birds can often be seen sitting in maple trees, which is where you generally find maple seeds.
