Everything should be in complete sentences and every question must flow into the next being all of them
must be answered throughly.
There are five questions, one from each chapter. Each question is worth 12 points. Make sure you answer
the questions thoroughly. To earn full credit, the information in each answer must be accurate and critically
thought. You will not get credit for answers that are directly taken from the text or any other source unless
they are properly cited AND include your own analysis.
1.) In what ways are ecological needs related to the behavior of different primates? How are features that
make us uniquely human actually part of a continuum that ends with hominids? How do world market
forces put pressure on primate populations?
2.) What role did continental drift play in making the world hospitable for the emergence of primates? What
evidence would we look for to determine if a primate was an insectivore or more of an omnivore? or if it
was diurnal rather than nocturnal?
3.) When did hominids first appear? How do we distinguish them from their hominoid ancestors? What is
the fossil evidence and why is the position of the foramen magnum so critical in determining a primate’s
mode of locomotion?
4.) What evidence exists to support the idea that nonhuman primates have culture? What is significant
about primate sociability? How do sexual dimorphism and social organization vary from one primate
species to another?
5.) What is cladistic analysis? On what is it focused? What are the benefits of this type of analysis?
You have to use the book chapters I will provide and 2 ok sources please.
