摘要: One of the cornerstones modern evolutionary biology is insight that an individual more tailored to his environment should have a higher survival and reproductive potential than less adapted neighbors. Behavioral ecology attempts explain behaviors as adaptive, or not, only in particular ecological contexts. And life history theory highlights developmental stage integral part development inherently sequential process. But how do these seminal ideas help us understand evolution hominid bipedality?
