#3 The human brain evolved as a result of the exposure of our species to environmental challenges. The ecological hypothesis states that the human brain evolved as a result of the exposure of our species to environmental challenges.

#4 The human brain and hand are two other distinguishing features of humans that evolved as a result of our history of innovation.
