Question

Stereoscopic vision, grasping hands and flat nails rather than claws seem to be good adaptations to living in trees. However, some scientists have hypothesized that these traits were more likely selected for catching small prey. Why?

Answer 1

Answer:

This is due to the general nature of the body's features.

Explanation:

The traits are important in the survival of the creatures. For example, a keen vision is needed to spot prey that is several meters or kilometers away. In addition, the claws serve different functions. For example, the claws are there to rest on the patch of the tree and hold firmly. In addition, the claws are for tearing prey. Further, the claws are for holding and lifting prey and suffocating it if necessary.
