I would like you to assist me in setting up a dating profile on Hominin (homo sapien). Would you date a hominin? Australopithecus afarensis is famous thanks to Lucy, but Paranthropus robustus could be a diamond in the rough! Once again, let's have a little fun with this learning activity. Showcase your knowledge of the important attributes of one of the fossil hominins covered in this Unit by writing a dating profile for one. Creativity is welcome and encouraged! But all of the responses on this dating profile should relate to/be unique to the fossil hominin you choose. There must be good reasons for your answers that relate to the morphology, physiology, behavior, and/or environment of your chosen hominin. Have a short introduction of Homonin you choose, and answer the questions below: What are your best physical features and why? What are your special skills and/or favorite hobbies? What are you looking for in a partner? What is your favorite food? What are you…
