Humans and apes share a common ancestor. However, there is no scientific evidence to support this claim. The theory ofevolutiondoes not say that one species will replace another. Instead, it says that species will change over time to adapt to their environment. So, it is possible for both ...
As I said, asking the question ‘If humans evolved from monkeys, how come there are still monkeys?’ betrays a common misunderstanding of how new species evolve. The question seems to assume any new species mustalwaysreplace its parent species. Presumably, the questioner is under the misapprehe...
There are a lot of ways mental real estate can be allocated. Neanderthals evolved their big brains in a different way than we did - and you see where that got them.
There is so much I could respond to but all I will say is, what a load of rubbish. Total, utter rubbish. And the fact that you are trying to influence people away from compassion and health and a reduction in their carbon footprint is quite frankly just disgusting. If you want to di...
Why Chimps Are Couch Potatoes and Humans Keep Moving Animals take in calories through food and, like a bank account, spend them on expenses mostly divided between two broad metabolic categories: resting and physical activity. In other primates, there is a distinct tradeoff between resting and acti...
Explain why primates have difficulty obtaining enough food to eat based upon the factors that limit primate diets. There are four factors that should be identified and discussed. Why do you think peristalsis would still occur if we were upside down on the moon?
Yawning has been hard to characterize functionally, primarily because there are numerous eliciting stimuli. Smith (1999) outlined over 20 functional hypotheses for why we yawn; however, few have received empirical support. Hypotheses range from increasing alertness (Baenninger and Greco, 1991, Baen...
(the large-bodied apes), as this predated the phylogenetic revision based on our molecular understanding of the close relationship between humans and chimpanzees. Indeed, there was limited molecular understanding of detailed relationships at all, but this was slowly changing with advances being made ...
Now the serotonin and dopamine levels normalise. But there is still a feeling of closeness, helped along by more oxytocin. If you suppress oxytocin in a monogamous species, such as a prairie vole, the animals stop being monogamous. "The bonds that hold people together are not dopamine-driven...
