Humans did not evolve from monkeys. Did we evolve from monkeys ? Humans are more closely related to Modern apes than to monkeys, but we didn't evolve from apes, either.
They are anatomically similar and related to the great apes ( orangutans , chimpanzees, bonobos , & gorillas) Physical Difference They are distinguished by a marked erectness of body carriage that frees the hands for use as manipulative members.
Brain size difference Humans are differentiated by more highly developed brain that allows for the capacity for articulate speech and abstract reasoning.
WHEN DID HUMANS EVOLVE? 7 million years ago
AUSTRALOPITHECINES HOMO HABILIS HOMO - ERGASTER/ERECTUS HOMO - HEIDELBERGENSIS HOMO - NEANDERTHALENSIS ARDIPITHECUS RAMIDUS
Its the earliest know genus of the zoological family Hominidae . HOMO HABILIS They moved out of Africa approximately 1.8million years ago. They are early bipedal hominid species called homo habilies. The unique features about them is they had a larger brain. They lived between 5.8 to 4.4 million years ago. ARDIPITHECUS RAMIDUS AUSTRALOPITHECUS These may have been the first primates to get a round mainly by walking upright. Firstly they appeared in east Africa approximately 4.4 million years ago. HOMO ERGASTER/ERECTUS This early hominids lived on the ground, walked upright, created tools to aid in hunting.
They appeared in Europe, Northeastern Africa and possibly Asia. They appeared in western Asia and Europe between 200000 and 250000 years ago. HOMO HEIDELBERGENSIS The species lived from 600000 to 200000 years ago. HOMO NEANDERTHALENSIS They developed to survive the harsh climates in which they lived.
HOMO SAPIENS The species that you and all other living human beings on this planet belong to is Homo Sapiens. Homo Sapiens evolved in Africa 300000 years ago. There was a change in behaviors that helped them respond to the challenges of survival in unstable environments.
JUST HOW OLD ARE HOMO SAPIENS? Homo sapiens are approximately 200,000 years ago. F A C T S Skull is rounded and indicates a reduction in neck muscles. Face is reasonably small with a projecting nose bone.
CAN WE DEVOLVE? LIKE THIS? OR MAY BE LIKE THIS? THESE ARE ALL POSSIBLE SCENARIOS & ALREADY PARTLY REAL.
C O N C L U S I O N The appearance of man was a climatic event in the history of earth. Man evolved from Ramapithecus to Recent man. Evolution was of short span of time i.e. Pleistocene to Holocene. Distribution is according to Natural Resources. Man is the finest product in the Evolution. Hope this presentation has increased your scientific knowledge about ourselves. THANK YOU
