The Tree of Life Project

The Tree of Life Project is an initiative aimed at understanding the relationships between all living organisms on Earth through a visual representation known as a "tree of life." This tree illustrates how different species are connected through evolution, showing their common ancestors and the diversity of life. By documenting species' genetic information and characteristics, scientists can trace the history of life and better understand biodiversity, evolution, and the impact of environmental changes. The project fosters collaboration among researchers and helps educate the public about the ecological interconnections that sustain life on our planet.
