Will humans evolve into a new species?

Since stable separation of parts of the species is the key factor for the formation of new species, we can say that a new split of our species is impossible under current circumstances. We are globally connected as never before and this trend is accelerating.

100,000 Years From Today

We will also have larger nostrils, to make breathing easier in new environments that may not be on earth. Denser hair helps to prevent heat loss from their even larger heads. Our ability to control human biology means that the man and woman of the future will have perfectly symmetrical faces.

Will humans go extinct?

Scientists estimate modern humans have been around about 200,000 years, so that should give us at least another 800,000 years. Other scientists believe we could be here another two million years…or even millions of years longer. On the other hand, some scientists believe we could be gone in the next 100 years.

Can humans evolve to breathe underwater?

Scientists have discovered a way for humans to potentially breathe underwater by merging our DNA with that of algae. In research on salamanders they found that oxygen-producing algae have bonded with their eggs so closely that the two are now inseparable.

How will humans evolve in the next 10000 years?

We will likely live longer and become taller, as well as more lightly built. We'll probably be less aggressive and more agreeable, but have smaller brains. A bit like a golden retriever, we'll be friendly and jolly, but maybe not that interesting. At least, that's one possible future.

Were humans meant to be muscular?

Humans are believed to be predisposed to develop muscle density as early humans depended on muscle structures to hunt and survive. Modern man's need for muscle is not as dire, but muscle development is still just as rapid if not faster due to new muscle building techniques and knowledge of the human body.
