Walking upright.

You can make a case for all of them, but for three of them indirectly.

But the answer, I think, is walking upright.

You can look at the pelvic bones and femur orientation in the hips. You can also look at the way the skull sits on the vertebra.

Chimpanzees have a skull that sits more downward, because they walk on all fours most of the time. While humans have skulls that sit more horizontally on the vertebra, which allows us to see out on the horizon more easily. We can do that because we stand on two feet.

I hope that helps.

artcher [175]

Answer:

If your just looking for a description here you go.

Explanation:

Most spiral galaxies contain a central bulge surrounded by a flat, rotating disk of stars. The bulge in the center is made up of older, dimmer stars, and is thought to contain a supermassive black hole. Approximately two-thirds of spiral galaxies also contain a bar structure through their center, as does the Milky Way.

Hope this helps.
