Cenozoic Era :)
Edwin Mitchell
Humans are thought to have evolved in the Pleistocene era, commonly referred to as the Ice Age. This era began around 2.6 million years ago and lasted until about 12,000 years ago. It was a time of significant environmental change that likely influenced human evolution.

Humans are thought to have evolved in what era?
Humans are thought to have evolved during the geological epoch known as the Pleistocene, which began around 2.6 million years ago and ended approximately 11,700 years ago. This period was marked by multiple ice ages and significant changes in climate and environment.
Were there humans during the Cenozoic Era?
Yes, the Cenozoic Era began around 66 million years ago and continues to the present day. Humans, specifically Homo sapiens, evolved during the Cenozoic Era, appearing in the fossil record around 300,000 years ago.
Scientists who argue that modern humans evolved from a single population believe that humans came from the continent of?
Africa.
Did humans evolve from cows?
Tempting as the thought might be - no. Humans didn't come from cows-as-we-know-them. But cows and humans are both vertebrates and placental mammals, so way back when there is a common ancestor. A fairly small mammal that branched off time after time- One line eventually turning out cows and another eventually turning out humans.
How were the first humans made when there were no human beings to reproduce?
The first humans are believed to have evolved over millions of years from earlier hominid species. Evolution is a gradual process where small changes over generations lead to the development of new species. It is thought that modern humans, Homo sapiens, emerged in Africa around 200,000 years ago.

Humans are thought to have evolved during the what era?
The Cenozoic or "recent life" era
Humans evolved in what era?
The first homonids (animals from the same genus as people) evolved about 3 million years ago. Our species, Homo sapiens, evolved about 200,000 years ago. All of the time since the dinosaurs died out 65.5 million years ago is called the Cenozoic Era, thus humans evolved in the Cenozoic.
Which era did people evolve in?
Humans evolved in the Pleistocene era, which is the most recent part of the larger Cenozoic era. Modern humans first begin appearing in the fossil record approximately 200,000 years ago.
Do humans evolved in the Eocene period?
No. The dinosaurs rose in the Mesozoic era. The end of the Mesozoic era was also the end of the dinosaurs. The era following is the Cenozoic, which we are still in today.
Who thought of cats?
Cats are evolved from wild felines tamed by ancient humans and are now a domestic,small house pet. No one really thought of cats.
Is it correct that life evolved in the Cambrian and humans evolved in Africa?
While it is certainly true that life diversified significantly during the Cambrian, it did not originate in the Cambrian, but roughly three billion years before that. And yes, the first populations of anatomically modern humans are thought to have emerged in Africa.
Were humans dogs?
no humans were apes that had over time evolved to humans
What are the ten things that have evolved out of humans?
Nothing evolved from humans. As of now, we are the highest on the evolutionary chain. At least, for now we are.
What is the relationship between archaea and humans?
archaea are ancient prokaryotes and humans are eukaryotes. archaea and eukaryotes have some similar genetic processes so it is thought that archaea are evolutionary closer to eukaryotes. this in turn means that humans have evolved indirectly from archaea
how did australopithecus extinct?
they evolved into humans.
What is the division of geologic time you live in today?
We live in the Cenozoic era. Currently, we are in the Holocene epoch of the Quaternary period. Humans evolved in the Pleistocene epoch which was also in the Quaternary period.
