Solution

Birth of the first human:

  1. This species, one of the first members of the genus Homo, had a smaller face and teeth compared to Australopithecus or other older human species, as well as a somewhat larger braincase.
  2. It does, however, still have some ape-like characteristics, such as lengthy arms and a fairly prognathic face.
  3. Homo habilis, sometimes known as "handyman", was one of the oldest known humans and lived between 2.4 million and 1.4 million years ago in Eastern and Southern Africa.
  4. Between five and seven million years ago, some apelike creatures in Africa apparently started to walk normally on two legs, which is when the earliest known human progenitors first appeared.
  5. After two million years, some of them moved from Africa to Asia and Europe.
