Question

1.1. what were the major traits that distinguished our species (homo sapiens) and our closest ancestors? which of the following was made possible by paleolithic hominins’ ability to harness fire? correct answer(s) drag appropriate answer(s) here consuming a broader range of edible foods relocation to colder climates and higher elevations evolutionary changes to human jaws and teeth metal working transformation of entire landscapes to attract herbivores and aid in hunting

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Paleolithic hominins using fire allowed them to cook, expanding their food - range. Fire also provided warmth, enabling relocation to colder areas. Cooking led to evolutionary changes in jaws and teeth as softer cooked food required less force to chew. Metal working came much later in human history and landscape transformation on that scale was not a direct result of fire - harnessing in the Paleolithic.

Answer:

consuming a broader range of edible foods, relocation to colder climates and higher elevations, evolutionary changes to human jaws and teeth
