Gorillas have the ability to walk on their two feet but choose to walk on their four limbs by applying their weight on their fisted hands to move about.
Chimpanzees also communicate using vocalisation, body gestures, and facial expressions.
Like gorillas, modern chimpanzees can walk on their two legs but since their body isn't adapted to it they walk on their four limbs similar to the gorilla
According to Ardi's body structure, scientist claim that this ardepithecus ramidus walked straight on two limbs much like how we humans do now!
Not much information has been found on how these creatures communicated but if I had to take a guess I would say that they also communicated using their vocals and through sound that they made to catch each other's attention somewhat of how we do today but with words and varieties of languages.
Australopithecus anamensis did not have a spoken language so they communicated using sounds like how modern chimpanzees do.
Australopithecus anamensis was actually the first species to walk up straight! So they walked and ran much like we do today.
BY: EMY, FABRIZZIO, LANDON AND JULIANA
They didn't have their written nor spoken language so scientist suggest that Homo habilis communicated using sounds that their tools made since they had the most trace of tools made of any species.
Homo habilis traveled by walking straight up.
:Australopithecus afarensis walked straight up and communicated using sounds created and body language
Homo neanderthalensis resembled modern day humans and shared characteristics like walking u straight but they communicated through body language and sound they created
Homo erectus
walked straight up like we do and communication suggest them being able to speak
We humans walk up straight to travel by walking, running, and swimming. Although we are capable of these things we have created devises that help make transportation faster such as creating a car and plane.
We humans communicate using many methods such as speaking, body language, writing, drawing, using eye contact, and using electronics.
Just like many creatures mentioned, the Paranthorpus aethiopicus used sounds to communicate and traveled using their two legs meaning they walk like we do now.
