create a phylogeny of human evolution. It should include all known hominids beginning with the earliest and ending with modern Homo sapiens. In your version of a future, humans will create a phylogeny of human evolution. It should include all known hominids beginning with the earliest and ending with modern Homo sapiens and your version of a future human. The requirement is to put the genus and species name of the hominid, beginning with the earliest one, which is Sehelanthropus tchadensis, in the phylogeny along with its dating age.

When I first studied hominin evolution, they had found "Lucy", an Australopithecus afarensis, and everyone thought her species was an early ancestor of Homo sapien. The picture is much more complicated, with lots of hominins living in close proximity for millions of years...much different than our now singular species. Look at the phylogenetic tree and use it as a guide to briefly describe hominin lines in Africa up to Homo. Do not discuss Homo.Just discuss a sense that you generally can grasp what was going on in Africa with our Genus for 6 or 7 million years!
We have studied how the six major primate groups evolved, with the most recent group being the hominins.The hominins branched off from main ape group around 7 million years ago.According to our lessons explain your reasoning as to whether there is a missing link,or one single specimen that embodies both ape and hominin traits, that serves as a transition between what is clearly ape and what is clearly hominin?What have you found most interesting about the beginning of hominin evolution and why?
Draw an evolutionary tree representing the hominins from 7 million years to the present. You can use a combination of dotted and solid lines to indicate descent.
Which of the following statements about hominins is FALSE? Each hominin species on Earth was directly descended from the species that preceded it Multiple hominin species lived at the same time The genus homo arose about 2.5 million years ago We have now discovered a vast number of hominin fossils, allowing us to trace the evolution of humans fairly well
You are reading a scientific paper regarding the relationships of the anatomical and behavioral characteristics of chimpanzees and their implications for early hominid evolution. With the emphasis on anatomical and behavioral characteristics, this implies that the researchers are relying on A. Traditional classifications of chimpanzees and humans B. Nonevolutionary classifications of chimpanzees and humans C. An incorrect classification of human ancestors D. Cladistic classifications of chimpanzees and humans
The Evolutionary History and Spread of Our Species (Homo sapiens) a. Briefly describe the two major theories discussed in this chapter about the origin of modern humans. b. Which of these two theories would predict a closer relationship for the various modern human populations? c. Which of the two theories is best supported by the genetic evidence?
Genomics and Human Evolution The Denisovan genome contains sequences that originated from an unknown human species. Using Figure 19.11, speculate on which species this might be. Is it possible that there are other ancestral species that may remain to be discovered that would change the phylogeny presented in the figure? FIGURE 19.11 Estimates for the dates of origin and extinction for the three main groups of hominins (green, blue, and orange). The australopithecines split into two groups about 2.7 million years ago. One of those groups, the genus Homo, contains the ancestors to our species, H. sapiens.
Linear evolution suggests that there is a ladder, or step- progression, to evolution over time one species building and transitioning into another species. A bushy interpretation of evolution suggests multiple overlapping species of hominins, with some species short-lived, and others existing for a long period of time. What type of evolutionary model does A. sediba support? Explain your answer.

The pattern in hominin evolution in which the dental, locomotor, and neurological systems evolved at markedly different rates is referred to as? Group of answer choices mosaic evolution simultaneous origins differential evolution divergent physiology physiological evolutionary dichotomy
Modern humans vary in the amount of Neanderthal DNA they carry in their genomes What geographic regions have the most Neanderthal DNA and which have the least? Why is Neanderthal DNA differently distributed among modern human populations, particularly those regions with the most and those regions with the least?
Which hominins might be ancestral to us choose one that you find especially interesting (except H. sapiens) and explain how it fits into the picture of the Hominin family?
