Indeed you did... I'd forgotten:
No intermediary species? I wonder how someone could come up with this graph:
(it's huge, so I'll hide it)
Here are some examples from our own evolution:
Can you not see the features developing from top to bottom?
Brain size increases, jaws recede and become smaller? no? can't see it? I doubt you can't see it... considering how you can comprehend the complexity in DNA...
There is a big problem in sexually reproductive species, when they have a single breeding pair. Cheetahs were (or still are) close to this situation. This generally leads to a decreased biological fitness of a population[4][5] (called inbreeding depression), which is its ability to survive and reproduce. An individual who inherits such deleterious traits is referred to as inbred.]Inbreeding results in homozygosity, which can increase the chances of offspring being affected by recessive or deleterious traits.[3] This generally leads to a decreased biological fitness of a population[4][5] (called inbreeding depression), which is its ability to survive and reproduce. An individual who inherits such deleterious traits is referred to as inbred.
So, it seems very unlikely that any species, humans included, were ever limited to a single pair of breeding specimens. It would have always been a population-wide effect.
That would be mitochondrial RNA that is only passed down in the egg from the female side.
And, if I remember correctly, they've traced mitochondrial RNA back to an African population... not a single person
Doesn't mean the graph is accurate or correct.

What about octopus and squid?
Crocodiles and alligators are same genus so same kind. I believe the same is true for octopus and squid.
Let me give you a clue. Not even all crocodiles belong in the same genus.
Crocodiles and alligators are not the same genus.
They are not of the same family.
The smallest classification to which they both belong is order.
So there we have it.
Kind is not specie. It is not genus. It is not family. It is for the moment order.
Well, starting from the very bottom, we are already half way up to the top of Linean classification scheme. When we get all the way to the very top, domain that encompass all biotic life on earth, you will reach the closest approach to being right your Bible addled brain can ever come.
Maybe we will still drag you kicking and screaming Bible quotes all the way to the right answer.
