Answer to Question 1

Early modern humans evolved from a single woman in Africa, whose offspring then migrated from
Africa, perhaps as recently as 100,000 years ago, and populated Europe and Asia, driving the earlier
hominid populations to extinction. Alternatively, early modern humans did not have an isolated origin
in Africa, but rather they established separate populations throughout Eurasia. Occasional contact and
interbreeding between these populations enabled our species to maintain its overall cohesiveness while
still preserving the regional differences in people that we see today.



Answer to Question 2

The hominids, which includes present-day humans and our ancestors, are bipedal; have an upright
posture; show a trend toward a large and complex brain; and have a reduced face, small canine teeth,
omnivorous feeding, increased manual dexterity, and the use of sophisticated tools.
