Your best friend, who is a curator at a Natural History Museum calls you up one day to ask for your help identifying an unknown specimen she found in an unmarked box in a closet at the museum.  In order to help her you know that you have to first identify some cranial traits present. Mark all of the traits that are present.  Remember that the lack of a trait is just as informative! Group of answer choices occipital bun sagittal crest relatively large and pointy canines (compared to modern humans) no sagittal crest small cranial capacity with wide base (maximum cranial breadth is below the ears) large cranial capacity (maximum cranial breadth is above the ear)

Specimen 4: Sexually Dimorphic Cranial Morphology  Sex Estimation Select the cranial feature variants that you observe in this specimen below.    Be sure to select all that apply.     Group of answer choices larger, more pronounced mastoid process less pronounced mastoid process supraorbital torus (browridge) is larger and more pronounced supraorbital torus (browridge) is less pronounced or absent palate is deeper palate is more shallow

Something that distinguishes Homo erectus from archaic and modern humans is that Homo erectus has ( Select ]

please label with the word bank. Only label the numbers it ask for.

Please help me with identifying which of the following cranial traits listed are present in this species. (I was given a clue that the lack of a trait is just as informative)   -occipital bun -sagittal crest -relatively large and pointy canines (compared to modern humans) -no sagittal crest -small cranial capacity with wide base (maximum cranial breadth is below the ears) -large cranial capacity (maximum cranial breadth is above the ear)

Which of the following are traits are observed in Homo erectus crania (select all that apply)? Group of answer choices long and low overall cranial shape robust nuchal torus maximum cranial breadth below the ear large canines large supraorbital browridge high degree of post-orbital constriction sagittal crest

E. An "authentic dinosaur bone" is being offered for sale on the Internet. The seller claims that he had it analyzed by scientists who confirmed that it is a dinosaur bone and used carbon dating to determine that it is 400 million years old. Give two reasons why you should be suspicious of this bone's authenticity. (See Figures 8.9, 8.10). 1. 2.

The fused region of the ilium, ischium, and pelvic bones in a bird is called the:

All of these characteristics of P. aethiopicus suggest that it may represent an evolutionary connection between A. afarensis and P. boisei, EXCEPT: Pneumatized mastoid region Brain size of 410 cc Compound temporal-nuchal crest Large posterior an anterior dentition Sagittal crest that extends from posterior to anterior on the cranial vault
