Step-by-step explanation:

The multiregional hypothesis of human evolution theorizes that humans evolved in various places outside of Africa from separate populations of Homo erectus. Fossil evidence from outside of Africa that shows intermediate development into modern humans seems to suggest that this theory is correct.
