While a dolphin’s external morphology and necromantical organization are different than those of primates‚ both dolphin and primate brains share some important similarities. Next to humans‚ the highest encephalization degrees are found in oceanic dolphins (Connor 593-594). Dolphin and primate brains have this higher EQ because of their larger brain size to body size ratios. Not

make digestion difficult‚ resulting in small quantity conception. Female primates who are pregnant require more calories‚ meaning they need to obtain more food. If they are lactating they require 50% more calories compared to when they are not breastfeeding or pregnant‚ according to the online lecture of Primate Ecology. Seasonality proves as a challenge due to food sources becoming scarce. Depending on their location primates may look at small sources that have calories that will help their dietary

However‚ no matter how many similarities you find between primates and humans there will always be differences.
