Physiological Adaptations
Anthropology · General Knowledge · Physical Anthropology
This unit explores the remarkable physiological adaptations that allow humans to thrive in diverse environments, including thermoregulation, altitude tolerance, and dietary flexibility. Students will gain an understanding of how these adaptations have shaped human evolution and enabled us to inhabit a wide range of ecological niches.
