Had slightly larger brains than earlier species. Question 15 0.4 pts The size of molars we see in the Homo species (compared to the size of molars in Paranthropines) suggest: Homo habilis and later species ate mostly fruit found in their forest habitat Homo habilis ate seeds and tough plant material that they ground up with their molars Homo habilis and later species were eating more meat in their diet Homo habilis lived in multi-male groups where males fought for access to females Question 16 0.4 pts

Comparisons of cranial capacity between A. africanus and the later species H. erectus and A. boisei show that H. erectus had much larger brains, while A. boisei had only slightly larger brains than A. africanus. There is evidence that A. africanus and H. erectus used tools, though the tools made by H. erectus required more skill and planning to craft. How do you think the toolmaking abilities of A. boisei would have compared? (A) A. boisei would have had very little ability to make tools, unlike the other two hominids. (B) A. boisei would have been able to make more advanced tools than the other two hominids. (C) A. boisei would have been able to make tools that were less advanced than H. erectus. (D) A. boisei would have made tools that were less advanced than those made by A. africanus.
