This is because, although I am not a scientist, I am not sure that I would have had the realization of where we had gotten our hand, foot, arm, and leg structures from. I assumed that these characteristics came from the first amphibians and before now I had never wondered where amphibians adapted these traits from. The type of animal that these qualities derived from was a transitional fish. This fish had hand like limbs in the front of its body in order to propel its self out of the water and onto the land, and the fins on the back of this animal kept it from toppling over when on land and helped it swim while in water. The video informed me that this animal was a member of the “Stega” family, a family of animals that have played a huge part in the study of evolution our
