Cenozoic Era :)
Cenozoic Era :)
You're here, aren't you? We are living in the Cenozoic era right now. Anything after the Cretaceous period is considered Cenozoic. However, modern humans have only been around for a few million years, and human civilizations have only been around for about 10,000 years.
Africa.
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.
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.
Cenozoic Era :)
Humans are thought to have evolved during the Pleistocene era. This period began about 2.5 million years ago and lasted until about 11,700 years ago. It was characterized by multiple ice ages and the emergence of early human species.
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.
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.
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.
Cats are evolved from wild felines tamed by ancient humans and are now a domestic,small house pet. No one really thought of cats.
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.
no humans were apes that had over time evolved to humans
Nothing evolved from humans. As of now, we are the highest on the evolutionary chain. At least, for now we are.
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
A New Era of Thought was created in 1888.
they evolved into humans.
