Human evolution is a complex process that traces the development of modern humans from our early ancestors. To arrange the stages of human evolution from past to recent, consider the following order:
- Homo habilis (A): Often considered one of the earliest members of the genus Homo, known for using tools.
- Homo erectus (D): Known for standing more upright and for spreading from Africa to other parts of the world.
- Homo neanderthalensis (C): A distinct species that lived concurrently with early Homo sapiens in Europe and parts of Asia.
- Homo sapiens (B): The species to which all modern human beings belong.
The correct sequence, therefore, is: A-D-C-B.
