If dogs became self-domesticated through a commensal relationship with modern humans, which of the following might we expect to find as evidence? Dog domestication pre-dates deliberate human domestication of other plants and animals Domesticated dog remains associated with other hominins, like Neanderthals and Denisovans Cave paintings depicting the gradual change from wolves to dogs over thousands of years Genetic evidence that humans were trading dogs breeds over long distances Woven reeds used as dog collars and leashes

What specific evidence do paleoanthropologists cite to support the arguments that Neanderthals had a tendency to inbreed (extreme endogamy)? What are the speculated reasons for this practice?

Neandertals are argued to have evolved from… Group of answer choices European premodern humans African premodern humans Javanese premodern humans Middle Eastern premodern humans Chinese premodern humans

Evidence for biocultural evolution during the Upper Pleistocene may exist in the form of craniofacial morphological differences between premodern humans and modern humans because, as one interpretation mentioned in your text suggests… Group of answer choices deep concentration on the creation of cave art murals resulted in the selection for more gracile craniofacial morphology in modern humans hunter gatherers used landscape surveying methods to hunt and gather resources, a practice that required long periods of squinting resulting in supraorbital browridge muscle robusticity frequent spiritual rituals focused around chanting practices resulted in enlarged craniofacial muscle attachments basket weaving techniques required the use of the teeth as a clamp to temporarily hold the sinew technological innovations assisting with food processing resulted in anatomically modern humans not needing large teeth and facial muscles to chew and process their foods

Our earliest primate ancestors, such as eosimian (a prosimian) Group of answer choices   were bipedal.   were major carnivores and hunted herd animals.   lived in trees, avoided dinosaurs and ate bugs.   spent as much time on the ground as in trees and ate bugs.

Based on the fossil record, when did hominins first appear in Africa? Group of answer choices ~ 12 kya ~ 6 mya ~ 12 mya ~ 2 mya ~ 6 kya

It is generally accepted by anthropologists and biologists that modern humans arose: 500,000-1,000,000 years ago 350,000-450,000 years ago O 200,000-350,000 years ago 30,000-50,000 years ago O 5,000-7,000 years ago

If you as a paleoanthropologist are plannin an excavation at a hominin site in East Africa which is dated to about 2 million years old, which fossil hominin species might you expect to find?

Which of the following correctly identifies a successful adaptation in hominids over time? O Decreased brain size led to the development of language. O Bipedalism has enabled hominids to travel long distances. O Greater jaw sizes have allowed hominids to pronounce words more easily O Decreased jaw size led to the creation of tools used for hunting and gathering food.
