Ch. 12 Flashcards
Modern humans likely migrated to the Americas via
Walking across the Bering land bridge.
Allen’s and Bergmann’s rules are perfect examples of natural selection’s effects on anatomical adaptions to environments in mammals. These include the limb and trunk proportions of:
Neanderthals, modern human populations, and most mammals
The last Neanderthal dates to:
32,000 yBP
Painted perforated shells are evidence that Neanderthals
Both b and c
Traits of anatomically modern humans include
An average brain capacity of 1,500 cc
To date, the majority of Neanderthals fossils have been found in
Europe and Western Asia
A homed fossil has a low long skull, projecting face and occipital bond and large nasal aperture these are all?
Archaic characteristics
A distinctive trait of people from east Asia and the Americas is:
Shovel shaped incisors
The Herto skulls from Ethiopia:
Have a combination of archaic and modern features
Modern humans have
B and c
The earliest modern humans in Australia dating 40-50,000 yBP, were found
Lake Mungo
Archaic Homo sapiens
Shows a mixture of homo Erectus and Homo sapiens traits
The most distinctive traits about the cold adaptions complex of Neanderthals are.
The body and the length of the arms and legs
The middle Paleolithic is associated with Tools
Mousterain
Modem H. Sapiens differ from the archaic form in havin
All the above
Which tool indicates that H. Sapiens began eating a new type of food?
Harpoon
Sub-Saharan Africans show the largest genetic diversity of any humans population. This is likely to have resulted from the
Accumulations of genetic mutations over time
The multi regional continuity model of the origin of modern human states that
Gene flow is the key to evolution, turning archaic H. Sapiens into modern humans in various parts of the world
Neanderthal remain have been recovered from all of the following locations Except
Omo, Ethiopia
Analyses of modern human genetic variation indicate that H. Sapiens may have evolved approximately
200,000 yBP
A valid critique of the out-of-Africa model of human evolution based on recent research is that
There was gene flow between Neanderthals and modern H. Sapiens
The levallois method of stone tool production is associated with the:
Mousterin
Neanderthals were all adapted to cold , owing to body charges such as
All of the above
A ME asserts confidently that the deceased was Asian or Native American ancestry. How did she know?
Shovel shaped incisors, a heritable trait often found in East Asians.
Neanderthals remains from Shanidar cave in northern Iraq provide the first evidence of
Care for the injured
In Atapeura 5, early archaic Homo sapiens and Neanderthal specimens show heavy wear on the incisors and canines indicating
The use of the front teeth for gripping materials
The most distinctive traits about the cold adaptions complex of Neanderthals are:
The body and length of the arms and legs
Human beings arrived in America when?
15,000 yBP
