The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Select the incorrect statement," we need to analyze each statement provided in the options. Let's break down the statements one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze the First Statement:** - **Statement:** "Neanderthal man used hides to protect their body and buried their dead." - **Evaluation:** This statement is correct. Neanderthals are known to have used animal hides for clothing and protection, and they also practiced burial of their dead, indicating some form of ritual or respect for the deceased. 2. **Analyze the Second Statement:** - **Statement:** "During Ice Age between 75,000 to 10,000 years ago, Modern Homo Sapiens arose." - **Evaluation:** This statement is also correct. Modern Homo sapiens did emerge during the latter part of the Ice Age, around 200,000 years ago, and they were present during the time frame mentioned. 3. **Analyze the Third Statement:** - **Statement:** "Homo erectus had a brain size around 650-800 cc." - **Evaluation:** This statement is incorrect. The average cranial capacity of Homo erectus is approximately 900 to 1,100 cc, which is larger than the range given in the statement. Therefore, this is the incorrect statement. 4. **Analyze the Fourth Statement:** - **Statement:** "Homo habilis were not carnivorous." - **Evaluation:** This statement is correct. Homo habilis is generally considered to have been primarily herbivorous, relying on plants and possibly scavenging for meat rather than being a strict carnivore. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement among the options provided is the third one: "Homo erectus had a brain size around 650-800 cc." ### Final Answer: **The incorrect statement is the third one.** ---
