Human evolution

Human evolution is the lengthy process of change by which people originated from apelike ancestors. Scientific evidence shows that the physical and behavioral traits shared by all people originated from apelike ancestors and evolved over a period of approximately six million years.
One of the earliest defining human traits, bipedalism -- the ability to walk on two legs -- evolved over 4 million years ago. Other important human characteristics -- such as a large and complex brain, the ability to make and use tools, and the capacity for language -- developed more recently. Many advanced traits -- including complex symbolic expression, art, and elaborate cultural diversity -- emerged mainly during the past 100,000 years.
Humans are primates. Physical and genetic similarities show that the modern human species, Homo sapiens, has a very close relationship to another group of primate species, the apes. Humans and the great apes (large apes) of Africa -- chimpanzees (including bonobos, or so-called “pygmy chimpanzees”) and gorillas -- share a common ancestor that lived between 8 and 6 million years ago. Humans first evolved in Africa, and much of human evolution occurred on that continent. The fossils of early humans who lived between 6 and 2 million years ago come entirely from Africa.
Most scientists currently recognize some 15 to 20 different species of early humans. Scientists do not all agree, however, about how these species are related or which ones simply died out. Many early human species -- certainly the majority of them – left no living descendants. Scientists also debate over how to identify and classify particular species of early humans, and about what factors influenced the evolution and extinction of each species.
Early humans first migrated out of Africa into Asia probably between 2 million and 1.8 million years ago. They entered Europe somewhat later, between 1.5 million and 1 million years. Species of modern humans populated many parts of the world much later. For instance, people first came to Australia probably within the past 60,000 years and to the Americas within the past 30,000 years or so. The beginnings of agriculture and the rise of the first civilizations occurred within the past 12,000 years.

Where does the first stage of cellular respiration occur?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Z

Explanation:

The first stage of cellular respiration is called GLYCOLYSIS, where glucose is broken down into pyruvate. Because glycolysis occurs irrespective of whether there is oxygen or not, it occurs in all organisms. Hence, glycolysis occurs in the CYTOPLASM of their cell.

In this question, a diagram was given as an attachment. In the diagram, letters W, X, Y amd Z are used to represent organelles in the cell. Letter Z represents the cytoplasm, hence, the first stage of cellular respiration takes place in Z.

Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for plant growth. But farmers who cultivate pulse crops like green gram, bengal gram,black gram, etc. do not apply nitrogenous fertilizers during cultivation because of following reason
1. Leguminous plants like green gram, bengal gram,black gram contain nitrogen fixing RHIZOBIUM  bacteria which convert nitrogen gas of air into nitrogen compounds which can be used by plants for their compounds

2. The nitrogen fixing Rhizohium bacteria live in the root nodules of leguminous plants.
