"Homo sapiens" implies
1 Human race
2 Human beings
3 Modern man
4 None of these
Explanation:
"Homo sapiens sapiens" is the scientific name for modern humans the only extant species of the genus, "Homo". Modern humans have a cranial capacity of \(1450-1600 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\). It has been evolved in the world \(25000-\) 10000 years ago, It is further divided into Negroid, Caucasian, Eastern and Mongoloid.

Which of the following is the direct ancestor of Homo sapiens?
1 Australopithecus
2 H. sapiens neanderthals
3 Homo erectus
4 Homo sapiens fossilis
Explanation:
Homo erectus was the direct ancestor of later species including Homo sapiens. Louis leakey argued energetically that Homo erectus populations particularly in Africa. Homo erectus is the oldest known species to have a human like body, it had an upright posture, a large brain around \(900 \mathrm{cc}\) and probably eat meat.

There are two opposing views about origin of modern man. According to one view Homo erectus in Asia were the ancestors of modern man. A study of variations of DNA however suggested African origin of modern man. What kind of observation of DNA variation could suggest this?
1 Greater variation in Africa than in Asia
2 Variation only in Asia and no variation in Africa
3 Greater variation in Asia than in Africa
4 Similar variation in Africa and Asia
Explanation:
Scientists studying mitochondrial DNA from living human all over the world have argued that their research shows that all human races originated from one Homo sapiens ancestor in Africa. The divergence of mitochondrial DNA of Africans from common source begun just some years back which was late for Homo erectus to split in Asia. Thus, there are greater variation in Asia than in Africa.

Who is directly related to man:
1 Gorilla
2 Rhesus
3 Gibbon
4 Orangutan
Explanation:
Gorillas share \(98.3 \%\) of their genetic code with humans, making them our closest cousins after chimpanzees and bonobos. The largest of the great apes, gorillas are stocky animals with broad chests and shoulders, large, human- like hands, and small eyes set into hairless faces. Gorillas are social animals and live in family groups called troops.
