Question

What is the evolutionary explanation for the evolution of humankind? (2 points)

Humans evolved from chimpanzees.

Humans and modern primates share a common ancestor, with humans evolving further while the rest of the primates we know of today remained the same.

Human beings branched from a common ancestors along with primates, but fall into a different group called the hominids, and homo sapiens (modern man) is the only specie of this group to have survived to our time.

Humans and primates do not have any evolutionary relation.

Answer 1

Humans did not evolve from chimpanzees. Humans and modern primates do not share a common ancestor, humans have not evolved further. Human beings have not branched from a common ancestor along with primates. The group called hominids is a human naming convention, not an absolute fact. Homo sapiens (modern man) is the only species of this group to have survived to our time.

Humans and primates do not have any evolutionary relation.True.

The fossil record contains the remains of a number of bipedal animals extending back 7 my. There are many morphological features between all the fossils that have been interpreted to support evolution, but there are many transitional forms that are missing, indicating that the gradual progression that is the evolutionary paradigm can not be verified. Additionally, there is no evolutionary mechanism for the creation of consciousness which only humans possess. The quantum leaps between organisms are not trivial - brain size, teeth, eyes, hands, feet, arms, length ratios, postures. skeletal structure, hair, fur, metabolism, reproduction, hundreds of million nucleotide differences, etc.

All the posited hominid relationships are circumstantial and speculative on the basis of naturalistically mandated interpretations, not verified objective scientific evidence.

Answer 2

Human beings branched from a common ancestors along with primates, but fall into a different group called the hominids, and homo sapiens (modern man) is the only specie of this group to have survived to our time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Evolution is the the process by which different kinds of living organism are believed to have developed from earlier forms during the history of the earth.

There is a strong assertion of an evolutionary link between humans and chimpanzees from evidences of evolution. Usually, organisms that evolved from a common ancestor share certain structures in common. This asserts the authenticity of an evolutionary link between species.
