Answer:

D. all of the above

Explanation:

Australopithecus (first ape-man): Australopithecus is considered as the connecting link between apes and man as they shared the characteristics of both. The fossil records shows that they appeared around 5 million years ago. <em>Australopithecus africanus</em> was about 1.5 meters high and had human as well as ape like features. It was with bipedal locomotion, omnivorous in their diet and had erect posture. It had human like teeth with small canines and large chewing teeth. The brain was more like an ape with the brain capacity of about 500 cc similar to that of an ape. He lived in caves, had projected  brow ridges with no chin. Its believed that <em>Australopithecus africanus</em> gave rise to <em>Homo habilis</em> about 2 million years ago.

The earliest species of Homo genus is <em>Homo habilis</em>. They were skill full man also called as handy man or the tool maker. He had erect posture with bipedal locomotion. The teeth were like modern man. He was skilled and made tools with stones. Slowly with evolution the prognathous face changed to orthognathous in cro magnon (<em>Homo sapiens fossilis</em>).

Area measuring 5 m² contains 50 earthworms what is the population density of the earth worms
Darina [25.2K]

The density of a population of living organisms is usually measured in individuals on one square km. In here we have 50 earthworms on an area of 5 square meters, thus we have 10 earthworms on every square meter. In order to get to the result we need to see first how many square meters there are in one square km. One square km has one thousand meters of length and one thousand meters of width so:

1,000 x 1,000 = 1,000,000 km²

Since we established that we have 10 earthworms on every one square meter, we just need to multiply the number of square meters with the amount of earthworms on every square meter:

1,000,000 x 10 = 10,000,000

So we have a density of 10 million earthworms per square km.
