Question

1; Describe the scientific process in your own words. In your answer please include what you thought the process entailed before taking this course (if different), whether there is a single approach or method to science, what “things” are testable (not testable) in a scientific model, and how you have come to understand it through this course.

2: In brief, what were the early debates regarding evolution? What did Lamarck and Darwin contribute to our understanding of evolutionary change? What did Mendel contribute to our understanding of evolutionary change?

3: How are humans similar to primates and how do we differ? Based on what you've learned in this course, are humans unique among the Order Primates? Based on your answers to the questions above, should we continue to use non-human primates to understand ourselves?

4: Describe the core anatomical and behavioral differences between Ardi, the Australopiths, Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Archaic humans, and modern humans? Why are these differences important in our understanding of hominin evolution?

5: Why is the biological idea of race and gender flawed? In your answer, please describe the most common myths about race/gender as biologically based (or describe the core tenets supporting these concepts as culturally based). How does the general public’s misunderstanding of these concepts allow racism and sexism to persist? (note: you will need to tie the concepts of human nature vs. human nurture into your argument)

6: What is one concept you learned in this class that has fundamentally changed how you view the world around you? This can be an idea that you thought you understood but have now gained new insight on, or something you had never heard before. Specifically, how will you carry this piece of information forward into your everyday life?

Explanation / Answer

A scientific approach is an experimental process, which is designed based on scientific knowledge to prove a theory or invent new things. The scientific process is a continuous process.

Knowledge science synthesizes is unique and valuable because it is always assured by scientific proofs and no biased interpretations. Though other forms of knowledge is also unique, they may not be accepted by all groups of people, which science is Universally accepted. The explain the real world aspects, a scientific approach uses models. All the living and non-thing things are testable in a scientific model, beliefs cannot be tested in scientific models (for example, we scientifically can't prove that there is God).
