Evolution in another million years?

Question

What do you think will change in humans over the next million years or so (assuming humans still exist on Earth)?

Answer 1

Best guess would be larger heads (and larger brains).

Currently, the female pelvis has reached it's limit in the ability to deliver a child. Any wider and a woman's ability to walk would be compromised.

C-sections avoid this issue allowing more babies with larger heads to be born. In theory, this will continue to the point where all babies would be born by C-section or artificial wombs would be used.

Answer 2

isn't it starting to change now? That is a possibility.. all we need to have is an extreme change of weather which is happening now eg. global warming. Overly advanced scientific experimentation about DNA's and human cloning. It'd freak me out to see a half- human and half animal. lol

Answer 3

We will be humans--just like we are now.

Answer 4

Personally, I don't think we'll exist in the next million years. If we do, though, we'll probably advance much more in the ways we think, communicate, ect.... Or we'll regress. Who really knows.  

Answer 5

Fossils of human skeletons look exactly how they do today.

Answer 6

It's unlikely that we'll continue to evolve; most species have remained pretty stable for most of their existence.

No, not enhanced vision, added limbs, or new senses. Even if we did evolve, it wouldn't be anything like that.

Our basic body-plan isn't going to radically alter to add a limb. We have the senses of other animals, no more, no less; we're not getting any more.

Answer 7

If humans, as a species, move into space or on a planet with less gravity, it is conceivable that longer, thinner bones could evolve to fit the new environment.  As a side effect, they could possibly grow taller and weaker with less muscles to allocate more energy to more complicated brain function.

Things such as enhanced vision and speed generally evolve out of necessity (ie: increased vision to spot prey, or speed to escape from predators).
