Do you know why all of us has an appendix? I don't either.
It's the remnant of an organ that was once of use to us but no longer is useful. Our bodies have changed because of environmental changes.

The theory of evolution by natural selection is the process by which organisms change over time as a result of changes in heritable physical or behavioural traits. Basically changes in organisms are selected or not selected (use/disuse) and the result are inherited traits (changes inherited by the next generation).
