The three correct answers that describe the lifestyle of the earliest humans such as Homo habilis are:

  1. They made use of tools and weapons.
  2. They lived in groups of 10–12 adults and their children.
  3. They hunted animals and probably scavenged food left by other predators.

Homo habilis is known for its tool-making abilities, social structures that likely included small groups, and a diet that included both hunting and scavenging. The other options regarding settling in one area to raise crops or spending more time in trees are not representative of their lifestyle.
