Question

1. fossil, linguistic, and genetic (dna) evidence support which of the following hypotheses about early human migrations?

early humans such as homo erectus and homo sapiens migrated out of africa.
central polynesia was settled by peoples sailing from the western coast of south america.
anatomically modern humans spread from their origins in western european regions.
early humans migrated from western asia across the atlantic to south america.

Explanation:

Fossil, linguistic, and genetic (DNA) evidence all support the theory that early human species like Homo erectus and Homo sapiens originated in Africa and then migrated out of the continent. The other options are inconsistent with scientific evidence: Central Polynesia was settled by peoples from Southeast Asia (not South America), anatomically modern humans originated in Africa (not western Europe), and there is no evidence of early humans migrating from western Asia across the Atlantic to South America.

Answer:

A. Early humans such as Homo erectus and Homo sapiens migrated out of Africa.
