The most significant relic of this species is an upper femur that reveals indications of bone development typical of a biped, indicating that Orrorin tugenensis individuals likely walked upright on two legs while simultaneously climbing trees.

A hypothetical early Hominin species called Orrorin tugenensis was identified in 2000 and is thought to have existed between 6.1 and 5.7 million years ago. How Orrorin is connected to contemporary humans is unknown. Although this remains the most popular theory of human evolution as of 2012, its discovery was used to refute the idea that australopithecines are human forebears. The name of the only classified species, O. tugenensis, comes from the Tugen Hills in Kenya, where the first fossil was discovered in 2000. The name of the genus Orrorin (plural Orroriek) means "original man" in Tugen. Twenty fossils of the species have been discovered as of 2007.

Do abiotic elements interact with biotic elements in an ecosystem?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

<em>Yes, the abiotic components interact with the biotic components in an ecosystem.</em>

Explanation:

The abiotic components are the non- living components of an ecosystem. The biotic components are the living components of an ecosystem. Abiotic factors such as sunlight, temperature etc directly affect the biotic components.

For example, the light of the sun is an abiotic component which provides energy to the biotic components, plants, to produce food. Soil is also an abiotic component which provides nutrients and water for the plants which are biotic components.
