HEy everyone! We're coming to an end soon. Today I 'll do a double post since tomorrow is the due date. Plus I really need to end it anyways. BTW, I'll be posting a new post for my Personal Blogggggg as well ^^. Thankyou & Please check it out for fun & info.


The New Science Of Evo Devo: Endless Forms Most beautiful
Sean B Carroll.

5. Comments

* Guess the next chapter is about? The making of beautiful minds, the making of Homo Sapiens. Here we are learning about the evolutionary of homo sapiens which will eventually evolve into modern human like us today!
* We will be able to find out about your, mine and everyone's common ancestor, from chimpanzees we have about the 99% of the same genes, however we are not chimps. Just closely related. One of the early human is Lucy. (I learned this in the begining of Sept.) the author will provide some differences and comparison from the regualr apes to modern humans. ANd how our minds work and how other apes as well can advance this mind making theory.
* Then they have a really cool diagram of different apes and man skeletons and here you can look for yourself that we look really alike from those of the chimpanzees. Oh and actaully apes and human together are called hominids, I forgot to tell you that. Sorry. (:
* Next you can check out the characteristics that makes human more interesting than regualr apes. Like the differences for example some that are listed ( which I learned outside as well) are: the relative brain size, S-shaped spin, brain topology and so much more. Then ou will read continuing to the different hominids species and their brain sixe and body size. You can also check out the evidence of early hominids by footprints left in the Laetoli. Check out more about it.
* Lastly tehy will talk about the brain and the specifics that can make a brain into a beautiful mind, how our brian is more advanced and develope. You can get a better understanding about it.

4.Questions:

(I asked some before I continued reading.)
* Where in the DNA does the difference between human and apes develope?
* Was human evolution in any other way typical to otehr mammals?
* Where in our brain does the capabilities resides?
* How do our mind really develope from other apes that could develope as well?

3.Vocabulary:

*Accumulated:
to gather or collect, often in gradual degrees; heap up.
*Spectrum:
an array of entities, as light waves or particles, ordered in accordance with the magnitudes of a common physical property, as wavelength or mass: often the band of colors produced when sunlight is passed through a prism, comprising red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
*Degrades:
To reduce in grade, rank, or status; demote.

2.Literary Terms:

* Allusion: He made a quick reference to Charles Darwin's evolutionary theory.
* Irony: That the oldest hominids is not advanced or wise as the modern humans, because you hear the saying, the older you get the smarter you'll be. But that's so ironic because we evolved from them.

1. Overview

* The overview for this section is that the studies of hominids and the brain and the developed human minds and body. How we are super closely related to the apes family, however we are different and tehy provided some examples for us to see. Then the skeletal explaination and genetics of the same common characteristics. From there we go to the evidence of where this theory comes from and the real proof that biologists and scientists have been studying.
