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.
Australopithecus anamensis may have been the earliest australopithecine species. They lived about 4.2-3.9 million years ago in East Africa. Unfortunately, little is known about them due to the scarcity of their fossils and the fact that the ones that have been found are highly fragmentary.he majority of them were discovered in East and South Africa. However, some also were found in Chad, which is located in North Central Africa. Current evidence indicates that there were as many as 12 species of early hominins between 6 and 1.5 million years ago, but they did not all live at the same time.
