Primates are classified as mammals for having all of the following traits EXCEPT

1. Exothermic
2. Produce milk for their young
3. Have live young
4. Endothermic

All of the following things can be distinguished from a primate’s teeth EXCEPT    

1. Whether a primate lives arboreally
2. Whether this primate is an insectavore
3. The primate’s age
4. The speed of this primate’s metabolism

Using the image below, identify this primate’s locomotor pattern with the identifying feature

1. Arboreal quadraped because this primate has equal lengthed limbs.
2. Terrestrial quadraped because this primate has a long tail for balance
3. Terrestrial quadraped because this primate has equal lengthed limbs.
4. Clinger and leaper because this primate has short arms and long legs.

The primate brain contains all of the following advancements compared to mammal and non-mammal brains EXCEPT                                                    

1. A stronger sense of smell
2. Increased ability for logic and reason
3. Greater neocortex
4. A larger neocortex

Tarsiers have a physical appearance that is similar to other prosimians, but lack this major prosimian feature

1. Rhinaria
2. Clinging/leaping mode of locomotion
3. Projecting snout
4. Mobile ears

All of the following were identified as factors in whether a primate is monogamous or polygamist EXCEPT                                                                     

1. Whether the climate is conducive to mating
2. Whether a male can protect all the females and children in the group single handedly
3. Whether the primates are nocturnal
4. If the male’s participation in child rearing increases the likelihood the child will survive.

The article “War: What is it good for?” provides which piece of evidence that aggression in primates is under environmental influence?        

1. Event where the most aggressive alpha baboon males are killed off, leaving beta males and females.
2. Event where Amos becomes ill and his friends care for him.
3. Early evidence of warfare in the archaeological record of humans.
4. Chimpanzees are notoriously violent towards intruders.

The article “Bonobo Bliss” discusses the hormone oxytocin in the experiment where adolescent female rhesus monkeys get near infants in order to                                               

1. imply that there is a biological component to the behavior of motherhood.
2. Suggest that motherhood is learned
3. to show that the benefits of motherhood do not outweigh the costs.
4. show that rhesus monkeys do not get attached to their infants like other mammals.

All of the following are behaviors discussed in your readings and films that are found among non-human primates EXCEPT                                                  

1. Ability to learn English words and communicate them verbally
2. Political strategies by male chimpanzees
3. Grieving and mourning among mother chimpanzees
4. Collective problem solving strategies among apes

Sexual dimorphism evolved among Old World primates for all of the following reasons EXCEPT

1. Old World primates began living terrestrially, leading females to choose larger and more aggressive male mates for protection.
2. ales needed to become larger in order to dominate over females sexually.
3. Since New World primates are primarily arboreal, larger bodies found in sexually dimorphic species would be a hindrance to their locomotion.
4. In order for a male primate to become polygynous, he needs to be able to protect his female mates and all their children single handedly, so females began to mate with larger and more aggressive males.
