Which of the following seem to be true of Homo erectus? O Remains have been discovered at Dmanisi, in the Republic of Georgia, that date to 1.81 mya and are associated with Oldowan industry tools that make them contemporaries of the earliest Homo erectus in East Africa. O Homo erectus from Indonesia lived as contemporaries with Homo sapiens, perhaps living in Java until 40,000 ya! O Some argue that Homo erectus should be used for Asian Homo and Homoergaster for African as they were separate for perhaps a million years. O The oldest evidence of hominins in western Europe dates to 1.2 mya, but may not be Homo erectus. They use Oldowan tools. O The Acheulian tool technology seems to have been invented after 1.6 mya in East Africa, but shows up in Asia, Europe and Indonesia Homo erectus excavations. This indicates 2 migrations out of Africa. O All of the above are correct.

Because the Laetoli footprints date to 3.6 mya and they are clearly made by a bipedal hominin, it is likely that they were made by Australopithecus afarensis, who appears to have been the only hominin around at that time. True O False

Which statement is a tenet of the out of Africa hypothesis for the origin of modern humans? O O O O Modern humans evolved in Africa and then migrated throughout the world, replacing earlier human populations. O Modern humans evolved in Eurasia and migrated to Africa, driving resident populations of early humans out of Africa and resulting in their extinction. Homo erectus populations migrated out of Africa and interbred with Homo neanderthalensis populations in Eurasia to give rise to modern humans. O Numerous Homo erectus populations that scattered throughout the world evolved simultaneously to give rise to modern humans.
Which of the following is NOT true about the Homo floresiensis fossil remains? Group of answer choices Were likely afflicted with a severe growth defects May have evolved from ancestors that left Africa before Homo erectus They were recovered in Liang Bua Cave on the island of Flores, east of Java have been affectionately named "the Hobbits" Were contemporary with modern humans 25 kya
You are searching for hominin fossils in Africa and discover a skull with a sagittal keel, an angular cranial vault, a brain size of 900 cc, and a bar-like supraorbital torus. Which hominin did you most likely find? Homo habilis Homo erectus Homo neanderthalensis O Homo floresiensis Homo naledi
Neanderthals are recognizably human but have distinctive facial features and a stocky build that were evolutionary adaptations to cold, dry environments. They shared Europe for 10,000 years with Homo sapiens. Today they no longer exist. Beyond these facts the fate of Neanderthals has generated much debate. Why did Neanderthalsbecome extinct? State at least two major factors toexplain their fate.
You have discovered a 2.1 million year old fossil with a parabola-shaped tooth row and a brain size of 600ec. Nearby were some Oldowan tools. What species of hominin should it be placed in? O Paranthropus boisei O Homo habilis O Andipithecus ramidus O Australopithecus afarensis

43. Which of the following recent fossil discoveries dating between 4.4 – 5.8 mya was clearly bipedal as reflected by features of the hip and thigh bone, but still had long, curved toes and an opposable big toe set off to the side (i.e., with a saddle joint like a thumb), leading human paleontologists to suggest that the fossil species is relatively close to our last common ancestor with other African apes? Orrorin tugenensis Archaic Homo sapiens Homo sapiens neanderthalensis Homo habilis Homo erectus
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.
