Evolution is a theory in which organisms change over time and become either better or more complex. ( 1 ) Charles Darwin‚ the Father of the Theory of Evolution‚ discovered that similar birds had adopted different beaks (finches 2 ). And thus‚ the theory of evolution‚ already placed in Darwins head by his grandfather‚ (

average fully grown adult Homo sapiens is approximately 1200 to 1600 cubic centimetres and weighing three pounds. In comparison‚ the earliest trace of human ancestors‚ the Australopithecus clan had brains slightly greater than apes‚ around 400 cubic centimetres. Anatomically the Australopithecus were bipedal akin to humans‚ but intellectually akin to primates‚ which suggests that bipedalism preceded the growth of the brain on the timeline of human evolution. The next ancestors‚ Homo habilis had an increased

hominids. The discoverers called Lucy‚ Australopithecus afarensis which stands for “southern ape of the Afar region”. This genus was one of the earliest species of hominids; the family of bipedal primates also includes homo hablis and homo erectus. While Australopithecus and Homo species vary in many ways‚ both hominids share common characteristics that define them as a group. The most distinct of these traits is bipedal locomotion‚ which means

find out how modern humans evovled (Marks‚ 2012). There are many models of how Homo saipan evolved. The Multiregional Continuity Model suggests that Homo erectus left Africa and moved into the Middle East‚ Europe‚ and Asia. Then these different groups evolved simultaneously into Homo saipan without direct connection to each other. The other main theory is the Out of Africa Model. This model suggests that Homo saipan evolved in Africa and then migrated into the Middle East‚ Europe and Asia.
