That’s literally the point - lower species are supposed to have begotten higher species. There is no proof this has ever happened beyond everything being here.
Problem you run into there is supposed constancy of the molecular clock.
A beneficial change which promotes enhanced survival relative to one particular environmental change, cannot occur until the proper mutation happens.
And the proper mutation can't happen, until or unless any old mutation at all happens.
It is easy to come up with scenarios where the rate of environmental change far outstrips the rate of random genetic changes to keep up at all: even assuming for the nonce that by some Las Vegas luck, for that species, at that particular environmental era, it hits the jackpot on a dozen slot machines in a row and ALL of the mutations happen to be the exact ones needed to handle that particular environmental modification.
But that has to happen every single time over and over, or that species dies out.
...and that says NOTHING about the prediliction of baby critters of all species to get eaten by predators of another species, or get pushed out of the nest by a stronger sibling, or get COVID, or what have you.
That's not how evolution works, retard.

No, it's not. It's gradual change at the population level over many generations. There are countless examples of this happening in the fossil record.
