The gene that is always expressed and will produces a trait is a genetic statistic. This statistic is what is created when the gene is dominant.
Evolutionary Tree Information: This species may be a direct descendant of Au. anamensis and may be ancestral to later species of Paranthropus, Australopithecus, and Homo. AL 288-1. âLucyâ (AL 288-1) is an adult female, 3.2 million-year-old A. afarensis skeleton found at Hadar, Ethiopia.Because she could walk upright on the ground and climb trees, she and other members of her species were able to use resources from woodlands, grasslands, and other diverse environments.he Laetoli footprints were most likely made by Australopithecus afarensis, an early human whose fossils were found in the same sediment layer. The entire footprint trail is almost 27 m (88 ft) long and includes impressions of about 70 early human footprints.
A species of early australopithecines that lived about 3.7-3.0 million years ago in East Africa. Skeletally, they were still somewhat transitional from early Pliocene apes. This can be seen in their legs which were relatively shorter than those of the later australopithecines.elect the Next Card button to see a card. The genus of early hominins that was most likely the immediate ancestor of humans. Australopithecus. The group of australopithecine species that was least likely to have been an ancestor of humans.
