CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY TEST
Your test will be made up of 10-15 multiple choice questions and 1-2 short answer questions. Below is the review sheet for the test.
ANTHROPOLOGY QUESTIONS:
Below are some questions about evolution that are from our class, and some are commonly asked. For each I have provided a link to an article. Of course, there is much disagreement among the experts on these questions. Feel free to look for other answers by experts (and always feel free to share with me!). If you're interested, read away!
1. Why do monkeys, apes, etc. still exist? Why didn't they evolve like us?
2. What are the most important discoveries recently made about human evolution?
3. What will humans look like in the future?
4. What made our brains get smaller?
5. Why do we still have hair?
6. Why are we not all ambidextrous? (This one was tricky....)
7. If they lived in (and presumably mated in) small groups, wouldn't there have been diseases?
8. When did culture, religion, art begin in human evolution?
9. Is it possible to have a religion and believe in the principles behind evolution?
