Summarize the different lines of evidence supporting the hypothesisthat cetaceans descended from land mammals and are closely relatedto even-toed ungulates.
Compare and contrast the specimens of H. habilis with H. rudolfensis.
Some paleoanthropologists believe these specimens represent one species, but differ because one is female and one is male. Others believe them to be different species. What do you think? Support your answer using anatomical evidence.
Name the key anatomical features and behaviors that set the earliest member of our genus, H. habilis, apart from the australopithecines and that are defining characteristics of the genus Homo.
Based on the anatomical evidence from the photos below, create a claim about which modern organism is most closely related, evolutionarily, to the Megalodon. Provide reasoning to validate the evidence you chose to develop your claim.
