Biological Anthopology
1. Biological Anthropology, as a science, has had an enormous impact on the field of Human Anatomy. It’s given us insight into the history of human development, from where we’ve come to where we are now. Those within the science have researched mankind’s origins through the use of what was left behind: Remains of our ancestors, and the ancestors that came before we could even define ourselves as Homo Sapiens Sapiens.
2. This statement is true in numerous ways, in fact, the development of tools over time influenced the fine tuning of our hands into the shape that they carry today. The development of tools eventually led to the creation of clothing. Though primitive, it is likely that these developments are part of what led to the shedding of our external coats, along with better heat regulation throughout our bodies. Along with these, there is evidence that we developed a shoulder that allowed us to ark our arms higher, and be able to propel objects with our shoulder back, to fling tools, such as modified sticks, or even rocks, further, making it easier to hunt our prey. …show more content…
Modern evolution is defined by the idea that mutations have happened gradually over long periods of time, with much room for error that hasn’t lasted until today due to Natural Selection. Darwin understood that Evolution was a process, but wasn’t sure exactly how it should work. He is the one however who formulated the idea of Natural Selection, which is a large part of our modern understanding. Lamarck had ideas that organisms drive for greater complexity over time, the greatest of examples being Giraffes who would have grown larger necks over time to keep up with the trees who continually grew. He also didn’t account for the idea of extinction, which plays a strong part in what we see as Evolution today. Though his ideas were crude, they were very important in the later development of ideas within
