Are all birds descendants of a single dinosaur species that lived at

Yes.



Or multiple species?


Yes, that too.

That makes no sense at all. The alternatives are mutually exclusive.


Did one species maybe
evolve into ostriches, emus, etc. another into penguins, and another
into all the other bird species?


Yes, three.

That makes even less sense.

Or was nonsense your goal?


Si.

So hard to tell, since most of what you say is nonsense, even when you
(apparently) aren't intending it.

Eukaryotes are the best prokaryotes.

ITYM eukaryotes are the best karyotes.

Eukaryotes make the best carryouts.

But I thought prokaryotes were all the life forms that weren't
eukaryotes.

according to

http://www.earthlife.net/cells.html

All living things are divided into two major groups depending on how
their cells are set up, these two groups are the Prokaryotes, and the
Eukaryotes.


Thus the eukaryotes must have descended from prokaryotes, hence
eukaryotes must be prokaryotes. It would be hard to explain how a
eukaryote could emerge, except from a simpler cell, which would have to
be a prokaryote.
