Homework#6

Spring 2008
Due Wednesday June 11, 2008 (one class day later than the Green Sheet
says)
1. Go through the book and use it to fill out all the necessary
details about each species listed on your Human Evolution Chart that I
have given you in class. You can do this with a colleague if
necessary. I will check each person's chart in class.
2. If we were to accept the Multiregional Evolution model what would
this mean for the Neanderthals – what would we guess had happened to them?
3. Explain why populations that inhabit hot climates tend to be linear
in build, and those in cold areas tend to be stockier. Give examples
of populations who support this model. Give examples of populations
who do NOT support this model. Why do you think there are exceptions?
