Question

g 33. Humans are bipedal omnivores (we eat both meat and plants, and we walk upright.) What features of the skull reflect this

Answer 1

Answer:

Since Skull is the most complete fossil, the features of the skull that reflects Humans as bipedal omnivores are: The teeth and the foramen magnum.

Explanation:

Humans are bipedal because they can move with their two legs, and they are omnivores because of their ability to eat both meat and plants.

The teeth on a skull are the most important indicators of what an animal eats, and it even shows if an animal is a predator or prey. Humans have different sets and shapes of teeth for different purposes making them an example of heterodont dentition.

The pelvis, knee, and foot bones should be the best to tell us about how an animal moves, however, the foramen magnum which opens for the spinal cord to pass to the brain, could also show whether how the animal moved.
