In the following passage, there are blanks, each of which has been numbered. Find out the appropriate word/phrase in each case.

Modern humans are the only extant members of the subtribe Hominina, a branch of the tribe Hominini (21) to the family of great apes. They are characterized by erect posture and bipedal locomotion; high manual dexterity and heavy tool use (22) to other animals; and a general trend toward larger, more complex brains and societies. Early hominins-particularly the australopithecines, (23) brains and anatomy are in many ways more similar to ancestral non-human apes-are less often referred to as "human" than hominins of the genus Homo. Several of these hominins used fire, occupied much of Eurasia, and gave (24) to anatomically modern Homo sapiens in Africa about 200,000 years ago. They began to exhibit evidence of behavioral modernity around 50,000 years ago. In several waves of migration, anatomically modern humans ventured (25) of Africa and populated most of the world.
