- An anthropologist has inferred from osteological remains that a culture included mostly left-handed spear-throwing female hunters. Remembering that bones are dynamic and respond to the stresses and strains placed on them, describe the specific skeletal evidence that implicates specific patterns of muscle activity that would lead them to this conclusion.arrow_forwardFor each animal, indicate what type of movement each limb is responsible for. Animal Primary Functions Human Using tools, picking up and holding objects Whale Cat Bat Bird Crocodile Compare the skeletal structure of each limb to the human arm. Relate the differences you see in form to the differences in function. Animal Comparison to Human Arm in Form Comparison to Human Arm in Function Whale Whale has a much shorter and thicker humerus, The whale fin needs to be longer to help in movement through water.
