The African Replacement Model (arguing that modern Homo sapiens first appeared in one place, and then spread out to other parts

of the world) suggests that modern Homo sapiens:
a. evolved in Africa and migrated into the rest of the world replacing all other populations
b. evolved in Africa and migrated directly in to Americas
c. evolved in Europe and migrated to Africa
d. evolved locally in Europe, Africa, and Asia from populations of archaic humans

Answer:

A. Evolved in Africa and migrated into the rest of the world replacing all other populations.

Explanation:

The origin of human races has remained as a much debated point among the scientists studying the human evolution. Many scientists believe that different races evolved independently from <em>Homo erectus</em> and they adapted in into different places like Orientals in Asia, Caucasians in Europe, Aborigines in Australia and so on. But it is highly unlikely to believe that same species evolved more than once in different places.

Other scientists believe that human races appeared after <em>Homo sapiens</em> evolved from <em>Homo erectus. </em>The mitochondrial DNA study from human beings all over the world clearly shows that all human races originated from one <em>Homo sapiens</em> ancestor in Africa.  Since the mitochondrial DNA is transmitted only by the females, scientists looked at it to study evolution. So far it has been observed that greatest number of different mitochondrial DNA sequences occur among the Africans and since the DNA accumulates mutations over time, the oldest DNA should show the largest number of mutations. These finding suggest that humans have been living in Africa longer than on any other continent. This supports the African replacement model which argues that <em>H. sapiens</em> evolved in Africa and human races evolved after that.

The subsections of a myofibril that perform muscle contraction are called
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Sarcomere

Explanation:

The sarcomere is the smallest contractile unit of muscle. It extends from one Z disc to the next and therefore, is the region between two consecutive Z discs. It contains an A band flanked by half an I band at each end. Contraction of a muscle fiber occurs as the sarcomeres within the myofibrils shorten. During the shortening of the sarcomere, the thin actin filaments slide past the thick myosin filaments and approach one another. The resultant shortening of the I band and complete disappearance of H zone cause contraction of muscle fiber.
