Conformists scientists
QUESTION 1 ( ANSWER ONLY ONE OUT OF THE TWO FOR THIS PART. EITHER A OR B)
Humans belong to the genus Homo and chimpanzees to the genus Pan. Yet studies of primate genes show that chimpanzees and humans are more closely related to one another than each is to any other animals. In light of this result, some researchers suggest that chimpanzees should be renamed as members of the genus Homo.
*Discuss at least three practical, scientific, and ethical issues that might be raised by such a change in naming.
Consider the animals in this chapter that are radially symmetrical (cnidarians, many adult echinoderms). Choose one animal that is radially symmetrical and discuss how its lifestyle is different from that of bilaterally symmetrical animals. Illustrate how its body plan complements its lifestyle.
QUESTION 2 (ANSWER ALL THE QUESTION IN THIS PART)
Species that are more prone to certain risk factors are more likely than others to become extinct. For example, species with a unique lineage, such as the giant panda, are likely to be at severe risk for extinction. Some argue that high-risk species are less successful products of evolution and should not receive extraordinary protection. Consequently, all species at risk for extinction should be equally protected.
*Determine whether or not you believe our limited resources for species protection should be focused on species that are at the highest risk for extinction, and explain why.
………………………..Answer preview………………………………
The three practical issues that will be evident when the genus of chimpanzee is changed to homo from pan will be the following. The first most practical situation will be the need to convince and fully make certain that the conformists scientists accept chimpanzee to belong in the genus homo. This can be attributed to the belief and the conservative nature of many scientists who played a role in classifying the chimpanzee into the genus pan……………………………..
