they now think animals could have developed 200 million years before previous estimateshttps://tekniikanmaailma.fi/ensimmaiset-elaimet-saattoivat-kehittya-200-miljoonaa-vuotta-luultua-aiemmin/the first animals were identical to plants in form, but did not have capability of generating power from the sunanimals grew on the ocean bottom and were largely immobilethe first emergence of animals could have been 950 million years agowell known fossils of more developed animals are from 600 million years ago, older than that and everything resembles largely plantsthis origin from 950 million years ago would make sense because it is otherwise quite weird to see all animal groups appear exactly 550 million years ago out of nowherethere was 720 million year old fossils in norwegian mountains, they would have been submerged at that timethey are without doubt animal fossils but not anything as complicated as a lobster but more simple form
>>17066751The premise is weird, that the fossile deposit had plants only and no animals.
