) What is the most common way for a dead organism to avoid decomposition? (2) Why do researchers look for fossils in places that are now dry and barren instead of other places like forests or grasslands? (3) What kind of dating from the lecture or textbook would be the best method for finding the number of years ago when a volcanic rock was formed? (4) Why is the pelvis of a biped shorter and wider than the pelvis of a quadruped? (5) Does the overall shape of Lucy’s pelvis resemble the human pelvis or the chimpanzee pelvis more? Do not think of the size, but compare the outlines of each bone. This is Lucy's skelton below.
