- - - - a species can continue to survive and adapt to changes
  - - - skin colour is an example of evolutionary advantage - humans with lighter skin are more likely to survive in climates further from the equator
- - - - Once thought to have gone extinct, recent finding have showed that rather than killing them off we had interbred with them. They had similar practices as us and show common features with other species.
      - Bipedalism: Major difference between humans and other primates is that humans are bipedal. Mary Leakey discoverd the loetoli footprints. There were three sets of footprints of early hominins these footprints were bipedal. Having a strong heel strike, distinct arch, and big toe inline with heel. These footprints indicate that bipedalism occured almost 3.6 million years ago. The traits that mark bipedalism are an s shaped spine, a wide flat pelvis, a slanting thigh bone, a double arched foot, and a big toe inlined with the heel.
  - - - Adaptive Radiation
        
        Adaptive radiation is the idea that rather than having one singular timeline, there are multiple species existing within the same time period, just evolved or adapted differently. These changes can occur via geological changes or if certain circumstances force them to adapt.
      - Phylogeny
        
        Phylogeny is the study of relationships among different groups of organisms and their evolutionary development. Phylogeny attempts to trace the evolutionary history of all life on the planet. It is based on the phylogenetic hypothesis that all living organisms share a common ancestry.
