Dequibenzo, the moon causes the tides. Another factor accelerating evolution are the seasons, which are caused by the earth's tilt. I find it hard to comprehend how life on a planet without these factors could be advanced.
To expand, life originated in the seas. Countless times, ocean life would have been forced onto the land because of the tides, so those organisms with characteristics enabling them to survive on land would evolve to become amphibians, then life would expand outwards onto land to become mammals, etc. The seasons use the same process, only instead of water, it's different temperatures the populations have to cope with.
Without a moon like ours there's very little encouragement for life to evolve.
