Which of the following has been suggested to have selected for bipedalism in the hominin clade? a. increasing parasite load, which promoted long-distance migration to escape from parasites. b. predators evolved faster movements, selecting for the ability of hominins to run faster. c. Transformation of forests into open savanna vegetation due to a drying climate; bipedalism was favored in open environments. d. Bipedalism allowed more efficient catching of fish and other aquatic organisms, which provided a plentiful source of protein. e. Bipedalism allowed the reaching of fruits that occurred higher on shrub and tree branches, helping to increase survival in environments where the diet was poor.
