Clay Chastain Dr. Hamilton‚ ANTH 2310-1 The Zoo Project: Nonhuman Primate Research 7 November 2006 Background Information In the world‚ a variety of primate species exist. Each species a unique function in the wild and differs‚ sometimes greatly‚ from another primate species. Two species that will be analyzed here are the Wolf’s Guenon (Cercopithecus wolfi)‚ an Old World monkey‚ and the Black-handed Spider Monkey (Ateles geoffroyi)‚ a

understanding the evolution of the unique characteristics of the human brain requires studying the brain of other living primate species. In other words‚ a specific evolutionary change in the human brain cannot be inferred to be unique to the human lineage unless other species sharing a last common ancestor don’t have it. That being said‚ Rilling emphasizes the role of comparative neuroimaging to investigate the similarities and differences between human and non-human primate brains‚ and highlights

How do primates represent spatial information mentally and use this information for navigation? Researchers have proposed two major mental map representations of space in non-human primates. In a route-based or topological spatial representation map‚ primates have ideal pathways that they make use of repeatedly. Route-based makes also consist of discrete chosen landmarks as reference points to arrive at numerous locations from distinct directions (Urbani‚ 2009). In comparison‚ euclidean (coordinate-based)

separation seems to have progressed throughout human evolution from chimpanzees to modern day humans where gender roles were clearly defined. This paper is to analyze the difference between men and women in terms of social behavior as not the result of biological variation but of cultural and environmental development from our ancestors.

Primate Classification LECTURE This lecture will address basic primate classification. Primates are classified based on their features- primates that share certain features are classified into the same group. There are lots of different ways of classifying animals- using an evolutionary taxonomy (like Linneaus’ family tree) or using cladistics. We are going to stick with the evolutionary taxonomy. There is a chart in your book- on Page 168-169 of your book- I would suggest that you have that open

Why Are Primates So Smart? Primates can be defined as the most developed order of mammals. All Primates are classified into one taxonomic order‚ which divides into two major suborders that differentiate physically from each other after taking different evolutionary lines. The lower primates prosimii commonly called prosimians‚ meaning "pre-monkey"‚ was the first suborder to evolve and includes animals such as lemurs‚ lorises‚ etc. Anthropoidea was the subsequent suborder to evolve‚ 90% of anthropoidea

SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT Introduction Lehman’s Law of Software Evolution predicts that change in software is inevitable and it is not a consequence of bad programming. There are also limit to what can be achieved by a software evolution team in safely implementing changes and new functionality. Software evolution reacts to the need of changes on the software system for various reason including bug fixes‚ declining performance‚ increasing complexity and adapting to new platform. Software

Zoe Hall Often times‚ when an individual with only basic knowledge of biological anthropology considers the adaptation and evolution a group‚ the importance of coevolution is either overlooked or understated. In the article Manipulation complexity in primates coevolved with brain size and terrestriality‚ which can be found in the magazine Nature‚ authors Sandra A. Heldstab‚ Zaida K. Kosonen‚ Sonja E. Koski‚ Judith M. Burkart‚ Carel P. van Schaik & Karin Isler‚ find that there is a plethora of evidence
