Anthropology, the study of humankind, has four main branches: Cultural Anthropology, Archaeology, Linguistic Anthropology and Physical Anthropology (Larsen 2014). Physical Anthropology focuses mainly on uncovering the mysteries of human evolution by studying fossilized bones of ancient humans and primates to determine their place in our family tree and study what circumstances led to the evolution of the modern human (Larsen 2014). There is a specialty within Physical Anthropology called…

When we look at living individuals today, there are at least a million differences amongst them, and yet there are multiple similarities. No living individual is the same as they were a year ago. It is known that many significant individuals have looked for answers of possibly why this has occurred, and is still occurring. Despite the various approaches from multiple fields of study, there has always been a connection between the studies conducted; evolution. From physical attributes to one’s…

the neck is elongated far past the normal size. The scapulae are the wrong shape (they almost look like the front view of a scapula, but da Vinci is working on the anterior portion so it is most definitely wrong). Also the conjunction points of the humerus with the backward facing scapula are strange to look at. Any anatomist would question it because the ball and socket joint is overplayed in this situation, it is much too…

B-cells differentiate into plasma cells which are mainly found within the bone marrow. Bone marrow is found in many types of bones including long bones such as the femur and humerus, and flat bones such as the bones of the cranium and the scapula (American Cancer Society, 2014). When plasma cells continue to grow, it can create the disease called an isolated plasmacytoma which means there is only one tumor, but when there are…

Discuss fitness tests or methods of evaluation that should be used to assess the client, providing rationale for your recommendations.
