Which primate is closest to man regarding organic evoltuon :
Verify mobile number to view the solution
Sinanthropus is Peking Man which was considered by some to be a direct ancestor of modern humans.
The prehistoric man who lived on earth during late Pleistocene period :
Both Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans were initially thought to have evolved from Homo erectus between 300,000 and 200,000 years ago. H. erectus had emerged around 1.8 million years ago, and had long been present, in various subspecies throughout Eurasia.
Which character applies to Homo sapiens :
Homo sapiens does not have opposable toe, large canine and chin is present. The only character applies to homo sapiens is cranial capacity of 1450cc.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
Fossils of Pithecanthropus have been recovered from :
Java and it's pithecanthropus also known as java man.
Ancestor of man who first time showed bipedal movement
Bipedalism evolved well before the large human brain or the development of stone tools. Recent evidence regarding modern human sexual dimorphism (physical differences between male and female) in the lumbar spine has been seen in pre-modern primates such as Australopithecus africanus.
Who was known as the direct ancestors of homo sapiens?
Homo erectus were known as the direct ancestors of humans. It had many similarities to modern man. Their face, skull structure, and posture were the same.
Homo erectus different from Cro-magnon man in having :
B- While Homo erectus used chiseled stones to make different tools, Cro magnon excavations have shown that they used materials like bones, antlers, teeth and ivory. With these new materials, they were able to create sharper blades, needles for sewing, and fishhooks for fishing.
The probable direct ancestor fo modern man is :
Cro Magnon man is the direct ancestor of a modern human. These are the first early Modern Humans of the European Upper Paleolithic. It appeared during Holocene period that lived about 40,000 years ago. The brain capacity was about 1,600 cc, larger than the average for modern humans. They were robustly built and powerful. The body was generally heavy and solid with a strong musculature. The face was short and wide and chin is prominent.
So, the correct answer is option C.
The probable first prehistoric man was:
Homo habilis is a proposed archaic (early) species of Homo which lived between roughly 2.1 and 1.5 million years ago, during the Gelasian (earliest period) and early Calabrian (geologic time scale) stages of the Pleistocene geological epoch (this period lasted from about 2,580,000 to 11,700 years ago).
Which of the following statement is correct
Proconsul was ancestor of man and not of ape
Proconsul belongs to animal kingdom and it is a chordata and belongs to class mammalia which is near in the mixture of old monkey and ape.They are called the ancestors of apes and monkeys.
Scientific name of man is :
Homo sapiens is the binomial nomenclature for the only extant human species. Homo is the human genus, which also includes Neanderthals and many other extinct species of hominid; H. sapiens is the only surviving species of the genus Homo. The binomial name Homo sapiens was coined by Carl Linnaeus.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
The first ancestor of man whose fossils have been discovered was
Australopithecus, a hominid that lived 4.5 to 4 million years ago, was discovered in 1924 from South Africa and hence is also called as “Southern ape of Africa ”.Fossils of Homo erectus were discovered from Pleistocene rocks of Central Jawa and hence the name Jawa man.
On which continent maximum fossils of prehistoric man have been found :
Humans first appeared in the African continent 6 million years ago. According to the genetic and paleontological record, we only started to leave Africa between 60,000 and 70,000 years ago , in the middle of the stone age and this is the reason why most fossils are found in the African continent.
Most recent man found as fossil was :
Most recent man found fossil was Cromagnon man. It lived during the upper Paleolithic period (40,000 to 10,000 years ago) in Europe. The fossils were discovered in 1868 in a shallow cave at Cro-Magnon in southwestern France. The body was generally heavy and solid, apparently with strong musculature. The forehead was straight, with slight brow ridges, and the face short and wide. Cro-Magnons were the first humans to have a prominent chin. The brain capacity was about 1,600 cc.
