Hello there,

hu·man (hyo̅o̅′mən)
n.
1. A member of the genus Homo and especially of the species H. sapiens.
2. A person: the extraordinary humans who explored Antarctica.

Ex:
Humans are descended from ape-like creatures.

c.f.
Most of the words that refer to people are countable - person, human, human being, man, woman, child, etc. People is the exception. The fact that it isn't countable (at least not usually) isn't an indication that the other words that refer to people are similarly uncountable.

Thus, the answer to the question is "humans".

Hope it will help you.
