Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 14BS
This chapter presents a scientific understanding of human origins. Science is one approach to understanding the natural world {as you learned in Chapter 1 Q). Reread the Biology and Society section and underline words or phrases that reflect a scientific approach to the study of Homo f/oresiensis. You are probably also familiar with at least one way of understanding human origins that is outs.ide the scope of science. How does that approach to understanding life differ from a scientific one? What might be the potential value of studying human evolution in a scientific context?

(Steps to 1 question)
1.Explain the difference between the popular and scientific use of the word 'theory.' What is the relationship between a 'fact' and a 'theory' according to Gould
2.List and explain the three reasons that Gould and other scientists can feel 'confident' that evolution occurred.
3.How does Gould feel about Scientific Creationists, and what does he suggest be done by scientists? What do you think about his perspective?
4. there are six big events in human evolution. Which of these do you feel is the most significant and why?
5. What are your thoughts on the compatibility of science and religion? Is there any way to make religion more scientific, or science more spiritual? if so, would that be a good idea? What is the future of this debate or conflict, in your opinion? Any comments/feedback/critiques on the two video clips in module 1?

- Respond to the following paragraph below? I've been thinking a lot about the theories of why humans evolved to become bipedal, and have been watching a lot of specials on YouTube. One of the things that interests me, is one of the ancient human ancestors evolved to be a mixed form of bipedal and not. I find that extremely interesting, because at the time that this being lived Africa was still largely covered in dense jungle/forest and the being still has to climb trees. It was the perfect inbetween of humans and apes or chimps. There was still some m grabbing capability in its feet to allow it to imb trees, but was also able to straighten and reach for higher places. In the video the theory is that these primitive apes needed to reach higher food that others weren't able to, and also had to carry the food for longer distances. One thing that continues from this was the African landscape starting to shift from jungle to savana. With walking upright, they took less heat from the sun,…arrow_forwardWhat Have I Learned So Far? Write True if the statement is true. If false, change the underlined word or phrase to make the statement true. 1. Charles Darwin coined the term “survival of the fittest." Fossils can be used in determining the remains of ancient organisms. 2. 3. Geology is the study of the distribution of plants and animals on Earth. 4. Lamarck proposed the theory of use and disuse. 5. Genetic mutation accounts for evidence of evolution. 6. The theory of acquired characteristics is the concept of Wallace. 7. Vestigial organs are structures that have a particular use before but have no particular purpose for existing animals. 8. The similarities of the embryos of vertebrates indicate a common ancestral domain among them. Biochemical evidence does not provide a solid proof of evolution. 9. 10.
