1. The human brain has qualities that have no parallel in the animal world. The evidence of this is man's outstanding mental capabilities.
2. Man is the only creature that is fully bi-pedal. He can walk upright due to the special structure of his spine and therefore his hands are not necessarily required for locomotion but are free to carry out other purposes.
