Primatology Helps Anthropologists Make Inferences About the Early Social Organization

question 2

Multiple Choice

Primatology helps anthropologists make inferences about the early social organization of hominids and untangle issues of human nature and the origins of culture. Of particular relevance to these types of questions are two kinds of primates:

• A) catarrhines and platyrrhines.
• B) Gigantopithecus and Pierolapithecus.
• C) those whose ecological adaptations are similar to our own (terrestrial monkeys and apes), and those most closely related to us, the great apes (chimpanzees and gorillas).
• D) those that are in the tribe hominini, and those in the family hominidae.
• E) those with whom we share the least number of homologies, and those with whom we share the most analogies.
