Homo erectus,

What is the significance of bipedalism for hominins? What benefits does bipedalism offer and what environmental changes made bipedalism an important adaptation for hominin species?

6: Zhoukoudian Cave provides clear evidence that Group of answer choices A: Homo erectus ventured as far north as northern China by around 1mya. B: Homo erectus migrated to the Americas from Europe. C: Homo erectus practiced cannibalism.

87. Characteristics frequently found among modern Asian populations that are also seen at high frequencies in Homo erectus include   small molars and large incisors.   large molars and small incisors.   dental prognathism and large third molars.   shovel shaped incisors.   a sagittal crest.

Contrast physical and behavioral traits of genus Homo with Australopithecines.

7: The hominins known as “Hobbits” were Group of answer choices A: found on the island of Java, and called Homo erectus B: found in the Malapa cave in South Africa, and called Australopithecus sediba. C: found in a cave on the island of Flores, and called Homo floresiensis. D: found in the Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania, and called Paranthropus robustus

Please answer the questions and write paragraph. 3: What piece of information did the researchers use to suggest that Homo erectus did not have much body hair? 4: Where is Dmanisi? Why is it important? 5: Name three things about Homo erectus that separate them from the earlier hominins, including Homo habilis?

Match the hominin species with the characters they exhibit. Though each option might apply to more than one species, each character is only used once. Australopithecus robustus [Choose ] V Postorbital constriction Cranial capacity 700+cc Anterior pillars Short, wide palate Hyper-thick molar enamel and molarized premolars Australopithecus boisei Homo rudolfensis [Choose ] Australopithecus africanus [Choose ] Homo habilis [Choose]

One of the main characteristics that defines the hominin tribe are their bipedal tendencies.  However, as you have noted in reading for this week's assignments, not all hominins had the same bipedal capabilities.  Early hominins can be defined as being at various stages of transitioning into bipedalism while later forms are obligate bipeds.  At the same time there are many other things that we can explore that relate to hominins.  Often times there are new discoveries that are made and those discoveries make the news.I would like you to share a news article that specifically deals with hominins.  The news article can be up to 10 years old.  Make sure you do the following for points. Note: Make sure that the news that you read only deals with one of the following genera - Sahelanthropus, Ardipithecus, Australopithecus. Give a brief summary of what you read.  In one short paragraph tell the class what the news was about. Include the following points. Name the species in question. Where…
