The basis of the argument is that agriculture was oversold in terms of success; it did not result in the ascend and brilliance of civilization that it promised. Rather, Diamond and supporters argue that the transition from a hunter-gather society to one of agricultural farming was the start of a disastrous development. Progressivists argue that the introduction of agriculture resulted in a decrease in human health, worse diets, new diseases, and unsustainable practices eventually leading to clim...
Complex evolutionary history requires a complex theoretical framework, which might explain the lack of consensus among scientists regarding the exact hypothesis as to why primates evolved the way they did. This paper sets out to offer a detailed overview of the three competing theories on the origin of primates and to discuss their representative strengths and weaknesses. It will incorporate scientific case studies testing these theories and evaluating the results. With this comparative analysis...
Discuss the selective pressures operating in the late Miocene, Pliocene, and Pleistocene that favored the adaptive radiation of monkeys and contributed to decreased diversity among apes. 
Name and describe, in your own words, the three hypotheses of primate origins
Primate social and reproductive behavior may be purely natural or it may be learned; i.e they actively adopt a behavior through observation and imitation. These processes and the social context in which they take place are very important and elaborate in primates, and they can directly determine survival and length of life.
The growth cycle of a human being includes all development from an embryo to a fully developed adult human being. This cycle is divided in three parts; the pre-natal state, the post-natal stage, and the adult state. The pre-natal stage itself has three periods, which are referred to as trimesters (parts of the pregnancy).
Discuss the difference between a conjecture, hypothesis and a theory. Why is the distinction important 
 Define polygenic and pleiotropic traits and explain their significance for researchers’ efforts to link human genotypes to phenotypes.

Evaluate ab² − ac if a = 3, b=⁻4, c= ⁻5 3 × ⁻4² − 3 × ⁻5 
3 ÷ 16 − 3 × ⁻5 
48 + 15 = 63 
 
Evaluate 3x² - 2x + 7 if x = ⁻3 3× ⁻3² - 2 × ⁻3 + 7 
3 × 9 − 2 × ⁻3 + 7 
27 + 6 +7 = 40 
 
Solve for X ⁻7x + 9 = ⁻47 
⁻7x + 9 = ⁻47 
⁻7x = ⁻47 − 9 x = 56 ÷ ⁻7 
x= 8

According to Rodolfo F. Acuna, maize became an important crop that was an essential part of the 
evolution of many indigenous cultures. The indigenous people worshipped this essential crop. 
Due to the outgrowing population, maize production increased in agricultural innovations and 
became important in the way of labor work. The more maize that was harvested the increase it 
provided to the indiginous people. This resulted in helping mobilize labor as the population grew. 
The indigenous people...
