RobinHez:Yeah the MODs don't help out scientific topics because 96% of nairalanders can make you fall of your chair when they post anything on a science topic, they seem to think science is another religion it really saddens me that a youth in a country like ours do not bother to read scientific materials or rejects it to uphold belief. . .anyway lets hope they will heed your call this time |

sonofananimal:That is due to the fact that other animals have self heating features like fur and scaly skin, you dont thats why our ancestors developed clothing first from the skin of other animals. A pack of monkeys have been filmed to have mauled a lioness with sticks. .thats basic weaponry. This is the funny part, monkeys, chimps us different and more aerobic styles than you as a human can ever think off. . . . |

I'll make my comment from the view point of a Physiologist. It's our higher intellectual abilities that differentiate us from our lower brothers. Our frontal cortex is extensively developed..The frontal cortex is the anterior part of the "brain". This part of the brain undergoes the highest level of postnatal development. Why is this important to us? The dorsolateral and orbitolateral prefrontal cortex give us the ability to carry out executive functions - planning, sequencing of activities, memory, division of attention, emotion management, personality, etc. In fact, the subcallosal and subgenual regions of our brains are implicated in suicidal tendencies. With these, humans have the ability to carry out complex functions. As for our animal brothers, phylogenetically older regions of the brain such as the limbic system are more developed in them. These regions are involved in olfaction and other life-saving functions. A good example of this is the incredible olfactory skills of a lion. It's able to pick up the smell of a potential prey meters away. So, cognition and general coordination are the major differentiating factors between humans and other animals. 2 Likes 1 Share |
