Skeletal structure of humans and other primates. A comparison of the skeletal structures of gibbons, humans, chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans. Generally, it is believed that hominids first evolved in Africa and then migrated to other areas. There were four main stages of human evolution. The ...

ROSIE, a database of reptilian offspring sex ratios and sex-determining mechanisms, beginning with Testudines Main Prolonged female postreproductive life—hereafter menopause—is an evolutionary oddity that has puzzled biologists and anthropologists for decades. In human societies, women living under natural...
Most subsequent hypotheses dealing with human hand evolution have been framed assuming a 'long- handed/short-thumbed' chimp-like hand as the starting points of the LCA and basal hominins, with strong selective pressures acting to reverse these proportions in the context of stone tool- making and...
Sexual dimorphism of body size has been the subject of numerous studies, but few have examined sexual shape dimorphism (SShD) and its evolution. Allometry, the shape change associated with size variation, has been suggested to be a main component of SShD
It is really a philosophical study of the evolution of the human eye, considered from the standpoints of field ofvision, light sense, form sense, accommodation and convergence, color sense, and the protective mechanism of the eyeball. To any one with scientific or philosophic inclination, this ...
The lamprey GnRH-like molecule may be a nodal point inthe analysis of the ancestral molecule; hagfish do not contain a detectable GnRH molecule. The elucidation of the GnRH precursor molecule in human placenta showed the presence of a 53-amino-acid gene-related peptide of unknown function, but...
