How did the first man on Earth appear and where did he come from?

On Earth, the appearance of humans can be said to be an 'accident'. There were no humans on Earth in the first place. Humans only appeared after the mass extinction of dinosaurs.

On Earth, the appearance of humans can be said to be an 'accident'. There were no humans on Earth in the first place. Humans only appeared after the mass extinction of dinosaurs.

And after humans appeared, they continued to evolve and eventually became the top of the Earth's food chain. Of course, according to our scientific understanding, apart from catastrophic problems and different life cycles, there seems to be nothing that can affect humans.

At least in the food chain, humans can basically defeat other life forms in many different ways when fighting for relevance alone. But there has always been a question about the emergence of humans, that is, there were no humans on Earth, humans were all born from women. So how did the first man on Earth come into being?

The emergence of mankind

Scientifically speaking, humans only appeared after the fifth mass extinction of life on Earth - that is, after the extinction of the dinosaurs. Before that, there were no humans.

There are also many hypotheses about the appearance of humans. In mythology, it is said that humans were created, and Nuwa (Nuwa) created humans, etc. Of course, these cannot be established in science. In science, the appearance of humans is the result of the process of 'evolution' .

How did it evolve? Theoretically, human evolution originated from apes and developed step by step from primates through a long evolutionary process.

It has gone through 4 stages: ape, primitive man, sapiens and modern man. So this is how humans were formed, and according to modern scientific research, a part of genetic DNA has also been discovered, proving the partial authenticity of the evolutionary process.

And in 2020, there's still evidence that humans are still evolving. According to research published in the Journal of Anatomy, studies of human arms have found that there is an extra artery in the human arm, and the condition is becoming increasingly common.

It's also increasing: in the mid-1880s, the probability of having this artery was about 10% in people born in the late 20th century, compared with 30% in people born in the late 20th century. So this shows that human evolution has not been a problem.

So, although the theory of evolution is just a theoretical statement, from the known situation, there seems to be no problem with human evolution. Let us then consider the main issues.

There were no humans on Earth and humans were all born from women. So how did the first human on Earth come into being?

Since we have been talking about evolution, this can certainly be explained.

About 6,500 years ago, after what we call the 'extinction of the dinosaurs' theory , the age of reptiles ended at this point. After this mass extinction, primitive mammals escaped the disaster and survived for a long time, then evolved rapidly, so the above said 'the emergence of humans was an accident'. Without such a foundation, it would be difficult to happen, at least on theoretical grounds.

 After this mass extinction, mammals evolved rapidly. (Illustration photo).

The process of evolutionary radiation of primates also took place rapidly , evolving from lower species to higher organisms. Soon apes such as monkeys, rhesus monkeys, baboons and apes appeared.

Apes originated and evolved about 33 million to 24 million years ago. Later, related apes appeared in Africa, Asia, Europe, and elsewhere.

From about 10 million years ago to about 3.8 or more than 2 million years ago, the entire ape species underwent a transitional development, divided into Ramapithecus and Australopithecus. Through fossil research, it is found that humans gradually evolved from Australopithecus.

So the first ancient apes on Earth evolved from ancient apes. There were really no humans on Earth. From an evolutionary perspective, they came about through evolution.

All men are born of women, so was the first human born of a woman? You can say this, but you cannot know whether the first human was a woman or a man. Why?

For the evolution of organisms, it is equivalent to a "group evolution" situation , in other words, the emergence of humans can appear in a "group" manner , and it is impossible for a single evolution to occur.

As mentioned above, the human arm continues to grow. Can humans change like this? That is definitely not the case, at least according to research, it does not exist. So after the appearance of evolution, there must be a group of people who are difficult to determine who was the first, the scientific community has not found any evidence. However, this does not affect the later evolutionary development of humans.

Conclude

Human evolution is still ongoing, so evolution may have a certain supporting role in human evolution. For the transformation of humans on Earth, the evolution of ancient apes into humans is still the main one .

It is true that all humans are born from women, but as for the first man on Earth, there is no actual evidence to prove it , or in other words, we do not know where the first man on Earth came from. Unless we find fossil evidence of correlation.

Because the only thing that can be proven about the first humans on Earth is "fossils" . Although humans have continued to study fossils for "tens of thousands of years" in recent years. But compared to humans, fully discovering the 'starting point' of human evolution is still a long-term problem that needs to be studied.

If such evidence could be found similar to the ancient creatures we find in the permafrost, then the discovery of human evolution would also be an important piece of evidence. But apart from the discovery of ancient creatures, we have not discovered anything about humans.
