Question
Chapter 53.9, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way by which phylogenies can reveal the evolutionary history of behavior.
Introduction: The connection between the organisms and evolution can be determined through the construction of morphological and molecular data. The newly evolved organisms adapt the better characteristics in comparison to previous organisms to survive according to the conditions of the environment where they live.

- Scientists have documented cultural traditions in several types of primates, as well as dolphins, rats, and some birds. The difference between culture in humans and other animals is that: Most of the cultural behaviors that we see in other species can be invented by individuals on their own Modifications of learned tasks are more likely to spread in other species than in humans. The cultural behaviors of other species are all focused on foraging tasks. In other species, blind copying leads to cultural traditions that persist without change over longer periods of time than cultural behaviors in humans.arrow_forwardDefine natural selection using the 5 points below to explain its role in understanding primate behavior. (1) there is variation among individuals; (2) some of that variation is heritable; (3) there is always competition between individuals for resources; (4) some variants outcompete other variants and leave more offspring; (5) to the extent that the parent's traits are heritable, then a larger portion of the next generation will reflect those traits.arrow_forwardExplain the rationales behind ecological and social models of the evolution of primate cognitive abilities.
