This chart shows the evolution of hominids and how they all share common ancestors

HOMINID is any member of the biological family Hominade (the "great apes"), including the extinct and extant humans, chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and orangutans. This classification has been revised several times in the last few decades. These various revisions have led to a varied use of the word "hominid": the original meaning of Hominidae referred only to the modern meaning of Homania, i.e. only humans and their closest relatives. The meaning of the taxon changed gradually, leading to the modern meaning of "hominid," which includes all great apes.

 

  • A hominoid, commonly called an ape, is a member of the superfamily

 

 

 

 

HEre is a video on Hominid evolution explaining the evolution of the human skull.

I think that this is a good visual of not only what the youtube clip is saying but also on the development of humans.

 

This is a video showing the relation between hominids of different time periods and the appearance of them.

Here is the same timeline that we were shown in class. It shows the overlapping development of hominids.

 

 

 

Here is a picture which depict the differences and similarities between the human skeletons and that of different types of monkeys. One can infer from this diagram that humans have evolved over a number of years, their common ancestors being monkeys.

 

This is a video outlining a lot of the stages of human evolution.

This video is helpful in discussing hominid evolution because it describes the amount of years used in hominid evolution.  Also, the instructer discusses hominid evolution while using skulls as a reference.

 

This image does a great job representing the changes in the skull

 

This image is does a good job showing the number of years it takes for hominid evolution to occur.  It also does a good job showing the earliest and most recent hominid skull structures.

 

I found this image to be helpful because it does a good job depicting the different structures of the skull in different time periods.

 

This image is helpful because it is comparing and contrasting image A and image B.  Also, the labels help to understand the differences.

 

This is a cartoon of hominid evolution.  It is a little corny but it does represent the stages of hominid evolution well.

 

This image does a great job resembling the different stages of hominid evolution.

 

This image of hominid evolution is interesting to look at because it shows the skeletons of the hominids.

 

This timeline helped me to understand hominid evolution because it is simple rather than busy with a ton of words.
