Human Evolution Timeline

1. About 800,000 years ago, fire was controlled by early humans.
2. About 4 million years ago most early human species became bipedal.
3. The Homo Habilis used to live in Eastern and southern Africa.
4. About 12,000 years ago, humans managed to control the growth and breeding of some plants and animals.
5. The Sahelanthropus tchadensis is the earliest human species from the timeline.


Answer these questions:

1. What's been the role of climate change in the development of humans?
-Climate changes are very important for the human development because they define the environment in wich the early human lived. Thanks to climate change humans starts to eat different, live in different places and even affect to the brain size increase and the extinction of some early human species.

2. In your opinion, what is the most significant milestone for the human evolution? Why?
-In my opinion the most significant milestone is becoming bipedal because that's the start to everything. With becoming bipedal begins the evolution of the species and without that maybe we wouldn't be how actually we are.

3. Which early human species was thought to be the first to use tools made from stone?
-Homo habilis was thought to be the first stone toolmaker but then older tools were discovered.

-Homo heidelbergensis were the first human species to travel and live in Europe, about 700,000 to 200,000 years ago.

5. Which species survived for the longest time? For how long?
- Homo Erectus was the one who survived the longest time, for about 1,747 million years (almost two million years!)

Post 3: My favorite gadget

My favorite gadget is my PSP, her name is "Precious" so it's like the ring and I'm like Gollum ((Lord of the rings fan here!). I  got it about four or five years ago, I work at a restaurant to collect the money and buy it. I use my PSP a lot! maybe too much. Sometimes I don't sleep because the game it's getting better and i can't stop playing until the end. Sometimes I skip food time too, but it's not all the time. This happens mostly when I'm on vacations or free time, in class period I have no time to play so it's a little sad, I miss my Precious!
Anyway, I still love it because games are so fun and I can go playing everywhere with my Portable, It can play music, videos and photos so it's functional too, also is so beautiful! I love the form, the color, the little buttons and the sound it makes when the game CD starts to spin up.
My life without my Precious would be so boring! I hate play games in the PC because I like joysticks and go outside to play in a park, for example, so is more comfortable the little Portable than other video game consoles. I'm thinking of buying a DS or a WiiU but I'm a poor person right now so I'm happy to have my Precious with me!

Blog post 2- My opinions

1. Coca Cola is the best drink in the world.
I disagree, CC is too sweet for me! when I drink it feels like syrup. I prefer Pepsi, is softer!


2. The best type of transport is the bike.
I completely agree! cars are bad for the enviroment so biking helps to keep a good air quality.

3. I really like fast food.
I disagree. Home-made food is so much better than fast food, when someone cooks for you, it tastes like love!

4. Woman drivers are very dangerous.
I completely disagree! woman drivers are thoughtful than man drivers. Woman are safer drivers!

5. English is an easy language to learn.
I agree! English is funny and easy if you put some effort to learn it! There are so many ways to practice!

6. Education in Chile should be free.
I completely agree! Education is a human right and you are the one who decides wheter or not to study, not your money situation or status in society!

7. War is sometimes the only option to resolve some differences.
I completely disagree! war is the sickness of power some people have inside them. The world would be a peaceful place without armies and those awful stuff!
