Question
Starting with the work of Thomas Huxley, Charles Darwin based his theory of
human origins on which set of observations?
Since the fossil record known at the time linked humans and orangs, both Huxley and
Darwin assumed humans evolved in Asia.
O There was an excellent fossil record of human evolution from which Huxley and Darwin
concluded that humans had a close evolutionary relationship with the African apes.
O Humans are bipedal while other apes are not, humans have larger canines than other apes,
humans are tool users, and humans have larger brains.
Humans are bipedal while other apes are not; humans have smaller canines than chimps,
gorillas, or orangs; humans are tool users; and humans have larger brains.
