Document Summary
Looking at all the characteristics so we can piece and hypothesise evolutionary relationships. Nested hierarchy (not just one single name, very specific distinction) Categories don"t need to know for test: species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom. Contain a clade (a grouping that includes an ancestor and everything from it) use the nested hierarchy. They share this expression among many life forms. Habitats: forests, savannahs, cold climates, buildings, rain forests. Diet: eat almost anything, fruit, plants, insects, sap eaters, meat. Based on social temperament, relatedness, body size, sex. Body language and posture, showing off teeth, puffed up hair. Sexual dimorphism: very large male relative to the female, competition to mating very announced sexual dimorphism. Using them as a tool to better understand the extinct version.
