Name Institution Course Date Hominin adaptations 1. Discuss the anatomical changes that occurred in the bipedal hominin and how they reflect certain habitat adaptations Several anatomical changes took place to come up with the bipedal posture of hominins. These changes include shortening and broadening of the pelvis from the narrow pelvis exhibited in chimpanzees and gorillas. The resultant iliac blades in hominin provide stability and support during standing and walking (Lequin 15). However in gorillas the iliac blade is used for attachment as bacteria are printed. Forensic: 3D scanning and printing are deployed in forensic science to create replicas of a piece of evidence. They are also used in the reconstruction of facial identification when the other parts of the body are missing and the skull is available (AbouHashem 215). Works cited AbouHashem Yousef et al.

Order Description:
Please address all of the questions below. Discuss the anatomical changes that occurred in the bipedal hominin and how they reflect certain habitat adaptations, and then discuss the hypotheses that propose why the change occurred. In the article on tchadensis, scans were used to help reveal and reinforce some anatomical details. How can 3D scans and printing be applied to other areas of science? What applications can they have (you can be creative, use outside sources for this one)?
