characteristics of the human brain requires studying the brain of other living primate species. In other words‚ a specific evolutionary change in the human brain cannot be inferred to be unique to the human lineage unless other species sharing a last common ancestor don’t have it. That being said‚ Rilling emphasizes the role of comparative neuroimaging to investigate the similarities and differences between human and non-human primate brains‚ and highlights the different imaging techniques that have been

Clay Chastain Dr. Hamilton‚ ANTH 2310-1 The Zoo Project: Nonhuman Primate Research 7 November 2006 Background Information In the world‚ a variety of primate species exist. Each species a unique function in the wild and differs‚ sometimes greatly‚ from another primate species. Two species that will be analyzed here are the Wolf’s Guenon (Cercopithecus wolfi)‚ an Old World monkey‚ and the Black-handed Spider Monkey (Ateles geoffroyi)‚ a

A Zoo for a Primate Observation 11/15/2012 For this paper I decided to visit Zoo Atlanta to observe lowland gorillas. I got to the zoo at around eleven in the morning and found out the feeding times for the gorillas. Once I found them‚ after watching them for a little while I selected the most active group to go watch during feeding. The point of this trip was to make me feel as if I was doing a field laboratory observation of primate social behavior

Primate socio-ecology varies and has different determinants that decide many different characteristics. As a virtual paleontologist‚ we discovered two different sites and skeletal remains in Kenya and deductively reasoned their mating habits‚ group size‚ and several other characteristics about the Praeanthropus dimorphicus and the Praeanthropus monomorphicus with what I know about primate socio-ecology. Based on my prior knowledge‚ logic‚ and reasoning‚ by looking at skeletal remains we are able

the Survey of Primates film we watched in class. The film describes the basic characteristics of primates‚ illustrates the geographic locations and regions of their various primate forms. The movie also describes the various adaptations in which primates had evolved from in based on their location in the world‚ and also briefly describes types of behavioral and the social adaptions on primates’ relation towards humans. The film starts off by stating that the subspecies of primates are apes‚ monkeys

Why Are Primates So Smart? Primates can be defined as the most developed order of mammals. All Primates are classified into one taxonomic order‚ which divides into two major suborders that differentiate physically from each other after taking different evolutionary lines. The lower primates prosimii commonly called prosimians‚ meaning "pre-monkey"‚ was the first suborder to evolve and includes animals such as lemurs‚ lorises‚ etc. Anthropoidea was the subsequent suborder to evolve‚ 90% of anthropoidea

Primates‚ like humans have hands‚ feet and a brain. There are certain characteristics that defines a primate. The first trait is color vision. Although humans are capable of distinguishing a spectrum of color‚ other primates fail to do so because they are colorblind. Specifically‚ they cannot see the color red. As time passed by‚ color vision has evolved for primates. Unlike before‚ they have the ability to pick out red and orange fruit to eat for themselves. Another trait is grasping hands. It helps
