Answer 1

Answer:

Hi

Explanation:

The dinosaurs became extinct around 7 crore years ago and from that point, human evolution began. Humans are thought to have evolved from monkey-like animals that looked more or less like modern lemurs. These monkey-like animals further evolved into ape-like animals. Some of these ape-like animals evolved into gibbon and orangutan while the rest of them evolved into gorilla and chimpanzees. From their evolved, the first human-like animal called Ramapethicus. The following table lists the evolutionary history of modern man:  

Year Evolution  

15 million years ago Dryopithecus (ape-like) and Ramapithecus (man-like)

3 - 4 million years ago Man-like primates

2 million years ago Australopithecines, also called Homo habilis, lived in East Africa

1.5 million years ago  Homo erectus

1,000 - 40, 000 years ago Neanderthal man

75, 000 - 10, 000 years ago Homo sapiens

Answer 2

Explanation:

It is true that human evolution began 7 - 10 million years ago. Theories like the 'The Origin of Species' by Charles Darwin suggested that humans emerged from the apes who lived in the African regions which was confirmed by the study of the 3-4 million old Australopithecus fossils.
