Question

A high degree of sexual dimorphism observed in a fossil primate species could indicate that this species had social groups with a single male and multiple females. This would be an example of Group of answer choices convergent evolution. direct observation. reasoning from analogy. reasoning from homology. g

Answer 1

Answer:

This observation is just information about the sexual behavior of this group, but not direct evolutionary inferences can be made from such data

Explanation:

Direct observation is an observation that may be useful to obtain a conclusion about the influence of one parameter on different phenotypic states

Convergent evolution can be defined as the emergence of phenotypic features among independent taxonomic groups that do  not share a common ancestor

Analogies can be defined as phenotypic features among organisms that share a common ancestor  

Reasoning from homology is the inference that similar structures are due to common ancestry, instead of evolutionary convergence

Answer 2

Answer:

Direct observation.

Explanation:

Direct observation is a method of evaluating and collect data of species of organisms in which watches and observe and document using his senses the activities, behaviors observed . High degree of sexual dimorphism in species of primates is an example of direct observations because the researches observe and watches the organisms behavioral method.
