Pregunta 6
Pregunta
Ernst Haeckel, the famous German anatomist of the nineteenth century, argued that the orangutan is anatomically more similar to humans than are any of the nonhuman African apes. This led to
Respuesta
-
changing the species name for humans, temporarily, from Homo sapiens to Pithecanthropus sapiens.
-
the search for early human remains in the East African Rift Valley.
-
Charles Darwin’s inspiration to change his theory of human origins.

Eugene Dubois’s inspiration to search for the earliest human ancestors in Asia.
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
During the period 2.5–1.0 mya
Respuesta
-
several hominins, including but not limited to Homo erectus, Homo habilis, and various Australopithecine species, were alive at overlapping time periods, just as earlier periods saw several species of Australopithecine alive at once
-
the great diversity of hominins known from earlier periods was quickly trimmed down so only Homo erectus existed, alone, for most of that time.
-
there were two species of early hominin, Homo habilis living in Africa and Homo erectus living in Asia.
-
there was one widespread species of hominin, Homo erectus, with so much variation that early anthropologists thought there were several species existing side by side.

-
1.2 mya–800,000 yBP.
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
Dubois’s Pithecanthropus erectus finds consisted of
Respuesta
-
only skull fragments, so it was not known if Pithecanthropus erectus was bipedal.
-
only leg and other body fragments, so it was not known if Pithecanthropus erectus had a human-size brain.
-
a molar, a partial skull, and a femur, which indicated that Pithecanthropus erectus walked only partially upright, but had a human-size brain.
-
a molar, a partial skull, and a femur, which indicated that Pithecanthropus erectus walked much like a modern human but had a brain intermediate in size between a modern human and a typical nonhuman ape.
