History
1 answer:
nignag [31]2 years ago

Answer:Primates are characterized by relatively late ages at first reproduction, long lives and low fertility. Together, these traits define a life-history of reduced reproductive effort. Understanding the optimal allocation of reproductive effort, and specifically reduced reproductive effort, has been one of the key problems motivating the development of life history theory. Because of their unusual constellation of life-history traits, primates play an important role in the continued development of life history theory. In this review, I present the evidence for the reduced reproductive effort life histories of primates and discuss the ways that such life-history tactics are understood in contemporary theory. Such tactics are particularly consistent with the predictions of stochastic demographic models, suggesting a key role for environmental variability in the evolution of primate life histories. The tendency for primates to specialize in high-quality, high-variability food items may make them particularly susceptible to environmental variability and explain their low reproductive-effort tactics. I discuss recent applications of life history theory to human evolution and emphasize the continuity between models used to explain peculiarities of human reproduction and senescence with the long, slow life histories of primates more generally.

If a power was not specified under the articles of confederation who would be responsible for it
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The states, is the right answer.

Explanation:

The first document that served as the first U.S. Constitution was the Articles of Confederation. It was originally an agreement among the 13 U.S. colonies. The Articles of Confederation established a weak national government which gave very limited powers to Congress and additional powers to the States. Therefore, those powers not specified under the Articles of Confederation would belong to the States.

Is James Horn's assertion that "Jamestown also presents two sides of America's founding. On the one hand, England's New
Hoochie [10]

Jamestown presents two sides of America's founding one is positive and the other is negative as some people obtained benefits but others were negatively affected.

Jamestown was one of the first settlements in North America, this settlement was located in Virginia, and it is believed it was the beginning of the colonization in North America.

This important event has been considered by experts as both positive, and negative. This is because:

  • Discovering and settling in this new territory was a huge advancement (Positive).
  • Settlers had opportunities that were not possible in Europe (Positive).
  • Native people from the area had to leave their territories and many died because of diseases brought by settlers (Negative).
  • Later, African people were taken as slaves to Jamestown and other territories (Negative)

This means this event has two sides because only some obtained a benefit from it.
