Evolution assumes that man dropped out of the trees 1 to 5 million years ago and became fully human approximately 100,000 years ago. Yet archeological records show civilization arising only about 5,000 years ago (based on evolutionary thinking). In other words, by evolutionary reasoning, it took mankind 95,000 years after becoming fully human to figure out that food could be produced by dropping a seed into the ground! It has been estimated by evolutionary anthropologists that the earth could have easily supported 10 million hunter/gatherer type humans. To maintain an average of 10 million people, spread over the entire plane, with an average life span of 25 years, for the last 100,000 years . . . .would mean that 40 billion people had lived and died. Archeological evidence clearly shows that these "stone age" people buried their dead. Forty billion graves should be easy to find. Yet only a few thousand exist. The obvious implication is that people have been around for far less time.

The natural process is very slow. Can you help?
Are there algae/plankton seeds available that dont harm water quality/aquatic life and propagate real fast?

I buy normal washing up liquid and have done so for over 10 years now. While I buy the a well known brand I have never bothered paying the extra for the anti bacterial stuff. The reason is that a while ago I was told by a biologist that the anionic surfactants found in all washing up liquid is antibacterial anyway so the new ones labelled as antibacterial are little more than a marketing ploy. Is this true?

I read on wikipedia that they have 50 strains of bacteria, but my husband says they also have plague in their mouth. Doesn't hurt them, but hurts those they bite. Any exotic types out there know if the plague thing is true?

When i'm at work I clean my mug, plate and cutlery by rinsing (or soaking depending on how longs it been left) in water to remove the food then rinsing with boiling water. Is this sufficient to clean them i.e to kill and harmfull bacteria or am i risking a nasty stomach upset? I always thought that boiling water would kill all known bacteria but someone suggested that it won't.

If were once apes, and we evolved to match our needs, like bigger feet to stand on our legs and so on.... why did humans start to grow long hair? what was the social or environmental need that made us evolve into needing long hair?

HELP!!! I'm measuring the rate of transpiration of a leafy shoot every 30 mins and there are two sets of conditions, Condition A and Condition B. The following are the results:-

30mins - A 3mm, B 1mm
60mins - A 6mm, B 2mm
90mins - A 9mm, B 4mm
120mins - A 14mm, B 3mm
150mins - A 17mm, B 3mm
180mins - A 23mm, B 3mm

From these results what would you expect Conditions A to be like (in terms of light intensity, humidity, wind movement)?. Explain why you think so.

I hope someone can help with this, thank you soooo much!! =)
