After discovering that chimpanzees are only different from us by around 2%‚ they were reclassified.

Explain how Lucy could be viewed as “the missing link” Australopithecus Afarensis‚ commonly known as Lucy‚ can be seen by many scientific and historic facts as ‘the missing link’. Anthropologists show that Lucy is a transitional fossil which helps prove the way hominids changed throughout the ages. Bipedalism is the biggest and most important evidence that Lucy has shown to tell one how she lived in the chain of evolution. The morphology of Lucy’s skeleton has so many different characteristics

Rachel Harrison presents… The Aquatic Ape Theory! The aquatic ape theory is an alternative explanation of human evolution that suggests modern man spent some time adapting to a semi-aquatic environment before taking on its current form. This idea was first proposed in 1942‚ and its greatest proponent since that time has been Elaine Morgan. The aquatic ape theory‚ although compelling‚ has failed to become accepted within the scientific community. Max Westenhofer first published an account of

I have lost a lot of things I considered valuable‚ mostly material things that I could always replace. The person

THE DUCHESS AND THE JEWELLER Oliver Bacon‚ the jeweller‚ is really the only developed character in the short story "The Duchess and the Jeweller" by Virginia Woolf. The author uses the indirect stream-of consciousness technique as well as her own words to depicts the enterprising merchant as a many-sided man: He is both ambitious and sympathetic. The jeweller is highly arrogant and ambitious. His strutting smugness is evident through the animal metaphors used to portray him-from his physical

In the movie of Bicycle Thieves‚ it said that our dependence on other human beings are useless and not solve anything because human are only care on their own matter without thinking other human’s problem.
