growth and development, and human adaptation. Additional fields include forensic anthropologist, which study the skeletal biology to assist in the identification and analysis of more recently deceased individuals. Primatologist study monkeys and apes, using this to better understand the features that make each group…
1. Write a minimum 4-5 sentences (good sentences, not little short ones) paragraph explaining what the article is about. Bonobo plays a critical role in the Luikotale forest, making them a keystone species. Bonobo consume fruit, which contain seeds that go through their digestive system and then gets excreted. This process increases the biodiversity, and the chance that the plant will survive past the sapling stage. Bonobo are helping not only the plants, but herbivores that consume the plants…
What made us human? What changed us so drastically compared to our closest relatives, the chimpanzees? The simple answer is that our brain changed us. But it is how the brain evolved to be so different from all other animal brains that is so extraordinary. The human brain continued to evolve and grow throughout our evolutionary phases. This drastic increase in brain size did not come from chance, adaptations and changes in how and what hominins consumed were leading causes in hominin brain…
We are humans – the smartest animal on Earth – there is no doubt that we take an enormous population on this planet nowadays. Million years ago, we were the apes living among the jungle of Africa, so how did we get from that to modern human like today? What happened? What set us on the path of humanity? The questions are vast but there are several answers now. First of all, when we talk about human evolution, we have to know about Charles Robert Darwin, who is one of the most well-known…
In 2003, the remains of a small skeleton were found in a cave called Liang Bua on Flores, a small island in Eastern Indonesia. The individual was nicknamed LB-1 and originally scientists thought it was a child due to the size. However, when they took a closer look at the skull and teeth they realized it was the skull of an adult. Many scientists think this is a new species that they named homo floresiensis, but others argue that it is just a modern human with a mutation. Since 2003, bones and…
Evolutionary psychology is defined “the branch of psychology that studies the ways in which adaptation and natural selection are connected with mental processes and behavior.” (Rathus, 2013) Natural selection is important because it is the ability to allow species to adapt to the current environment in order to survive and reproduce. Evolutionary psychologists study how adaption and natural selection connect with behavior and mental processes. In other words, they study changes in human…
four, the reader is immediately presented with the reason of Jekyll’s fear, as four tells its part of the story through actions. An unsettling but memorable moment of this is when Stevenson describes the murder of Danvers Carew, writing that “[W]ith ape-like fury, he was trampling his victim under foot, and hailing down a storm of blows, under which bones were audibly shattered and the body jumped upon the roadway.” Through this startling description of the brutal crime, Stevenson shows a form…
Daniel W. Shrigley once said, “In a survival situation, it’s do or die. The ones that take action, using knowledge and common sense live!” Imagine this, you are on an island with several other people and no given resources. Maybe you’ve seen the television show Survivor where people face this problem. The book, Lord of the Flies, by William Golding and the show Survivor have many similarities with one difference. In both Lord of the Flies and Survivor there is a chief or leader of the group.…
The Homo Sapien, the “thinking apes,” ancestors of mankind have been around for about six million years (Howell). Since then we have undergone many advances, many revolutions, starting with the very thing that gave humans an advantage over other beings, their minds. Mankind was able to create tools that allowed them to master everything that they did, they harvested energy/ fire, engendered mathematics, democracy, the wheel, the printing press, electricity, vaccinations, etcetera. Humanity was…
