An evolutionary advantage of less body hair and more sweat glands most likely occurred as a result of _____.
a. bipedalism
b. decreased melanin production
c. migration from the plains to mountainous regions
d. the global spread of populations to Arctic regions
e. the tendency for early humans to conserve more body heat

Respuesta :

A. Because mostly because of DNA and the region. But for me the answer is A but might be D too so make sure. Sorry for choices

An evolutionary advantage of less body hair and more sweat glands most likely occurred as a result of BIPEDALISM (Option a).

  • Bipedalism refers to a specialized type of terrestrial locomotion by which an animal can move by using its two rear limbs and/or legs.

  • The main adaptation of bipedalism is to concentrate the major part of the body weight in a small area around the center of gravity.

  • In hominin evolution, bipedalism may be associated with hair loss (and also more sweat glands) in order to reduce heat overload when they were exposed to the direct effects of the sun at midday.

In conclusion, an evolutionary advantage of less body hair and more sweat glands most likely occurred as a result of BIPEDALISM (Option a).
