(Q002) Most primates are arboreal, and living in this environmental context poses great challenges.

Describe at least one specific problem or challenge a primate might encounter in a forested

environment (consider things like movement, finding/accessing food, and finding mates). Now, identify

at least one trait that primates have that helps them solve this problem. Which of these traits (if any) do

you have? What does this suggest about your ancient primate relatives?

Movement on trees.

Explanation:

The movement on trees might be a problem to primates to locomote, however primates possess structures called tails. Those structures facilitate the locomotion of primates over trees. Humans do not possess such structure, but a vestigial tail is present on the last vertebrae, which is called coccyx.

the answer is: trichonympha lives in the gut of termites and digests cellulose eaten by the termite.

this is an example of a symbiotic association of a protozoan with its mode of association.
