The change in weather pattern caused forest to become sparse and hot weather caused the reduction of apes as they had less food and difficulty in surviving the climate.

Explanation:

In Miocene epoch volcanic mountain chains were created in Central Africa which abruptly changed the local weather.

The sea-level got drop due to global cooling of that time.

This resulted in continental drift making land connection of Africa with Eurasia.

The primates started migrating through this route.

Adaptation processes occur to help species survive and thrive in the ecological balance of life. Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism that adapted through time. An example of this are the bills of a bird and the fur of bears that they generally need for their survival; birds for hunting, and bears to protect them from low climate areas.</span>
