Group of answer choices Speciation was occurring quite frequently. Early hominin species had restricted ranges, thus it is likely they each exploited a small area allowing for rapid genetic diversification through genetic drift and natural selection and speciation. Most of the species appear to have been tied to desert-arid habitats. With the exception of early Homo, there are few evolutionary trends regarding increases in body size or encephalization. All of the early hominins show an ape-like developmental pattern.arrow_forward
