Which best characterizes the current understanding of the distribution pattern of hominin fossils over time? a) The oldest hominin fossils are found on multiple continents suggesting multiple origins of lineages that eventually became unique lineages of the genus Homo. Modern humans may have arisen from Neanderthals or Denisovans before replacing those ancestors. b) The oldest hominin fossils are found in the Middle East while the earliest Homo fossils spread into Africa and into Europe (H. Neanderthalensis). Later Homo sapiens first appeared in Africa and then subsequently spread to other parts of the world O c) The oldest hominin fossils are found in the Africa and spread to other part of the world some of those ancient lineages evolved into Homo lineages on different continents. One lineage became Homo sapiens which first appeared in Africa before replacing the other species of Homo. d) The oldest hominin fossils are found in Africa while the earliest Homo fossils spread out of Africa to multiple locations while later Homo sapiens first appeared in Africa and then subsequently also spread to other parts of the world
