Solution

The correct option is A Africa
  • The earliest humans were found in Africa, which is where much of early human evolution occurred.
  • The fossils of these early hominids, which lived 2 to 6 million years ago, all come from this continent.
  • Most scientists believe that early humans migrated from Africa to Asia between 2 million and 1.7 million years ago, entering Europe some time within the past 1 million years.
So, the correct option is 'Africa'.
