Males Compete, Females Choose: Evidence in Humans In non-human animals, it is typically males that engage in intrasexual competition, and females that exercise intersexual choice. This is apparent in the morphological and behavioural differences between the sexes. Trivers (1972) argues that this is so due to differential investment in offspring between the sexes, which makes access to females a limiting resource in males' reproductive success. In other words, males compete, females choose. In…

portrayed in Egyptian landmarks as right on time as 3000 BC. The breed battled close by British officers in 55 BC. Caesar brought a pack of Mastiffs to Rome where the pooches were put on showcase as coliseum warriors and compelled to be in battles with human combatants, lions, bull bedeviling, bear teasing and in canine to-pooch battle. They later got to be famous with the laborers in England where they were utilized as a bodyguard, defender of wolves and different hazardous predators and as a…

the ability to monitor brain activity tangibly. The philosophy of mind has become much more sophisticated and profound, since the dualist ideals of Descartes. The hard problem of consciousness and the mind-body problem seek an explanation for how humans arrive at consciousness from our neurophysiology. The task that the hard problem of consciousness poses is to find the missing link, likely a part of the brain, between the physical brain and the mental self. There have been many attempts made in…

The human species is highly diverse and there are numerous physical variations amongst individuals. It is seen when looking at populations from around the world. Take for example someone from Europe and compare him or her to someone from Africa, the differences are noticed immediately. Whether the diversity of the human species due to physical variation leads to the existence of distinct races within the species is not yet settled. The concept of race can be looked at from two standpoints; the…

extinct species of early humans, were first discovered in 1891 by the Dutch physician Eugene Dubois near the village of Trinil, along the Solo River, on the island of Java, Indonesia. Dubois's finds, a partial skull and a thigh-bone, contrasted remarkably. The skull-cap, significantly smaller and lower in height than those of modern humans, had a large projecting brow ridge and a sloping forehead. The inside of the skull had a brain volume about half that of modern humans. The thigh-bone, on the…

arm; he rips the arm, the shoulder, and all. No human is capable of doing this to another human being, much less a monster that is probably multiple times their size. The next shining example of Beowulf’s superhuman abilities occurs while he is battling Grendel’s mother. On his way to battle Grendel’s mother, Beowulf walks “For hours he sank through waves“(452). This feat is yet another example of Beowulf’s superhuman abilities because the average human could not walk underwater for more than a…

arm had moved and he became alive. Then I noticed it was Beowulf and he fought furiously, in which I had noticed I became frightened. I imagined him having wings on his back, then I reminded myself that he was only human. He fought so hard…

What I hope we eventually discover is how a 4% difference in DNA composition created two incredibly distinct species of animal? What allowed us to evolve into what we are today, while chimps are still relatively the same (Lovgren, Stefan. "Chimps, Humans 96 Percent the Same, Gene Study Finds." National Geographic Society, 31 Aug. 2005. Web. 07 Oct. 2016.)? Despite the passage of the great ape research ban, it is not difficult to obtain a sample of chimp DNA. It is likely that we already possess…

What goes through your mind when you hear cannibalism? Cannibalism is defined as the consumption of flesh of the same species. It does not typically have to do with humans. It is depicted that way because of how the media and other sources portray it. In reality, cannibalism is a natural part of life. For decades, even centuries, humans have went through animal-like periods of time. Explorers and missionaries have encountered many of these treacherous accounts. Animals were witnessed displaying…
