Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The human have first appeared during the Quaternary period that covers the time from about 2.6 million years to the present. It is comprised of the Pleistocene and the Holocene epoch.

The species 'Homo erectus' first appeared in Africa in the beginning of this period, and they gradually have undergone evolution, thereby forming bigger brains and also enhanced in terms of intelligence. The very first modern humans have evolved in Africa some 190,000 years ago and they scattered to the various regions of Europe as well as Asia. They further migrated to Australia and America.

During this course of evolution, life has drastically changed in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. This period also provided the required factors for a better existence of living organisms.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

What are the<br> effect of wind on temperature of a place.

Alinara [238K]

Explanation:

Effects of Wind

on forecasted temperatures

At night, the earth's surface cools by radiating heat off to space. The strongest cooling takes place right near the surface while temperatures at roughly 3000 feet are actually warmer than those at the surface. On a windy night, some of the warmer air aloft is mixed down towards the surface. This occurs because the winds are faster aloft than at the surface.

To visualize this, place one hand over the other about six inches apart. The bottom hand represents the air near the surface and the top hand represents the warmer wind higher up. Move the bottom hand slowly and the upper hand faster (to indicate the faster winds aloft). The faster air above and slower air below causes the air to overturn or spin (as in the picture below). This overturning motion is how warmer air from above is transported downward on windy nights.
