4
Unique characteristics of mammals: Mammary glands Sweat glands Hair Four-chambered heart Other notable characteristics: –Internal fertilization of eggs –Warm-blooded
5
Primates evolved from an ancestral arboreal insectivore about 60 mya
7
Early primates: Dexterous hands with opposable thumbs Nails instead of claws Eyes in front-good depth perception Daytime vision (less reliance on smell)

Great Apes--hominoids Gorillas Orangutans Gibbons Humans

Our closest living relative: the chimpanzee

14
From Primates to Humans “Uniquely” human traits evolved through modification of traits that evolved earlier in ancestral forms

19
Trends in Lineage Leading to Humans Less reliance on smell, more on vision
20
Trends in Lineage Leading to Humans Less reliance on smell, more on vision Modifications of hand allow fine movements

22
Trends in Lineage Leading to Humans Less reliance on smell, more on vision Modifications of hand allow fine movements Bow-shaped jaw and smaller teeth
23
Trends in Lineage Leading to Humans Less reliance on smell, more on vision Modifications of hand allow fine movements Bow-shaped jaw and smaller teeth Longer lifespan and period of dependency
25
Trends in Lineage Leading to Humans Less reliance on smell, more on vision Modifications of hand allow fine movements Bow-shaped jaw and smaller teeth Longer lifespan and period of dependency Skeletal changes to allow bipedalism –Not as efficient as quadrupedal movement, but keeps eyes up and forward, keeps hands free

ANCESTRAL PRIMATES 60-40 mya Between 10 and 5 mya, the adaptive radiation of first hominiods (apelike forms) Between 10 and 5 mya, divergences leading to gorillas, chimpanzees, and hominids EARLY HOMINOIDS EARLY ANTHROPOIDS HOMINIDS A. afarensisA. boisei A. robustus A. africanus Homo rudolfensis Australopithecus Ardipithecus ramidus A. garhiH. erectus H. neanderthalensis H. sapiens H. habilis CHIMPANZEE GORILLA ORANGUTAN GIBBON OLD WORLD MONKEYS NEW WORLD MONKEYS PROSIMIANS 4 mya3 mya2 mya1 myapresent

Earliest Fossils Are African Sub-saharan Africa appears to be the cradle of human evolution No human fossils older than 2 million years exist anywhere but Africa
31
Fig. 26-37a, p.457 Tools made by australopiths and/or H. habilis
32
Reconstruction of Homo habilis in an East African woodland
33
Homo erectus 2 million-53,000? years ago Evolved in Africa Migrated into Europe and Asia from 2 million to 500,000 years ago Larger brain than H. habilis Creative toolmaker Built fires and used furs for clothing
34
Homo sapiens Modern man evolved by 100,000 years ago Compared to Homo erectus: –Smaller teeth and jaws –Chin –Smaller facial bones –Larger-volume brain case
35
Neanderthals Early humans that lived in Europe and Near East Massively built, with large brains Disappeared when H. sapiens appeared DNA evidence suggests that they did not contribute to modern European populations
37
40,000 years ago Estimated times when populations of early H. sapiens were colonizing different regions of the world
38
Where Did H. sapiens Arise? Two hypotheses: –Multiregional model –African emergence model Both attempt to address biochemical and fossil evidence
39
Multiregional Model Argues that H. erectus migrated to many locations by about 1 million years ago Geographically separated populations gave rise to phenotypically different races of H. sapiens in different locations (parallel evolution) Gene flow prevented races from becoming species
40
African Emergence Model Argues that H. sapiens arose in sub-Saharan Africa H. sapiens migrated out of Africa and into regions where H. erectus had preceded them (and likely outcompeted them) Only after leaving Africa did phenotypic differences arise
