Biological Anthropology - Forces of Evolution

(0)
$7.99

The discussion of race in this chapter is a bit confusing. I think what they are trying to say is that biological differences are real. However, I would point out that race is a social construct, especially with all humans sharing such a huge percentage of their biology. There are no set, clear, defined “races.” This will be discussed further when we talk about human variation and adaptation

Biological Anthropology - Primate Behavior

(0)
$7.99
0x  sold

Primatologists study the behavior of nonhuman primates, observing them in captivity and in the wild. Primatology is a subfield of biological anthropology. Primate behavior illustrates evolutionary principles. Sociality (group life) is the most fundamental primate behavioral adaptation. Living in groups, just like for humans, involves benefits as well as challenges. Studying the social relationships of primates is an essential part of primatological research. In more recent years, primatologists ...

Biological Anthropology - Fossils Lecture

(0)
$7.99
0x  sold

Paleontologists study extinct organisms by looking at their fossilized remains. Fossils are buried in geological strata, layers of sediment. Buried skeletal remains absorb minerals and eventually their inorganic tissues are replaced or petrified in stone. Other fossils may be preserved skin, hair or plant parts, footprints and tracks, or fossilized feces (coprolites).

Biological Anthropology - The Scientific Method and Darwin

(0)
$7.99
0x  sold

The current terminology for teaching creationism is “intelligent design.” See this checklist for a discussion of ways in which intelligent design and science differ. Both “creationism” and “intelligent design” are faith-based explanations for the world. Evolution is a scientifically based explanation. In this class we can respect one another’s religious beliefs. However, faith is not science. Religious beliefs cannot be explained using the scientific method.
