This picture shows the evolution of mankind over millions of years from primates to homo sapiens. The development took place from primates, Australopithecus, homo habilis, homo erecturs, Neanderthals to homo sapiens. The modern human (homo sapiens) is a mammal from the order of primates. It belongs to the suborder Haplorhini and to the family of Hominidae. Hominidae and Pongidae used to be considered two different families due to significant mental development of himans, recent findings see close relations between both groups and put them in the same family. The modern human is the only representative of the Homo. Definition: the evolution of organisms in the cause of global history that is based on a combination of hereditary variation (by mutation and re-combination through hybridization), selection and isolation of the genotypes.
