In 1998, paleoanthropologist Rick Potts published an article in The Yearbook of Physical Anthropology, a peer-reviewed journal. The article was titled “Environmental Hypotheses of Hominin Evolution.” In his paper, Potts claimed that great variations in environmental conditions over time were responsible for the adaptability of humans and the success of our species. Which would most likely be found in his paper? a review of modern human anatomical structure evidence of changing environmental conditions, with references the reasons competing hypotheses are wrong his opinion of what will happen to the survival of the human race

Dr. Potts used environmental data to support environmental hypotheses capable of explaining human evolution  

Explanation:

In this paper, the author stated that environmental factors have been fundamental for the emergence of adaptive traits during human evolution. In consequence, Dr. Potts explained how particular environmental factors and habitats might have shaped human evolution. For example, it has been hypothesized that dry savanna vegetation might have been a key environmental factor associated to the emergence of human traits including, among others, bipedality, making of tools from stones, the development of human brains, etc. In order to prove this hypothesis, the author recorded environmental data from different regions in Africa (Olorgesailie, Olduvai, Turkana, Zhoukoudian, etc), where it is believed that first hominids evolved about 6-8 million years ago.

lizards have adapted to life in the desert. some desert lizards have toes with spiny scales to them run across the sand without sinking. some use the sand to hide from predators, or to search for small animals that they prey upon.
