Human evolution began approximately 7 crore years ago.


Answer:

Approximately 7 crore years ago, the dinosaurs disappeared completely. At that time, monkey-like animals appeared from more or less similar to the modern lemurs. Tail of these monkey-like animals disappeared about 4 crore years ago. Due to enlargement of brain and improvement in their hands, ape-like animals were evolved and then later they evolved into gibbon and orangutan. Therefore, it is evident from the image that human evolution began approximately 7 crore years ago.
