The analysis of patterns of integration is crucial for the reconstruction & understanding of how morphological changes occur in a taxonomic group throughout evolution.
These patterns are rel.constant, but both patterns & the magnitudes of integration may vary across spp.
These differences may indicate morphological diversification, in some cases related to functional adaptations to the bio-mechanics of organisms.
In this study, we analyze patterns of integration between 2 functional & developmental structures: the cranium & the cervical spine in hominids,
we quantify the amount of divergence of each anatomical element through phylogeny.
We applied these methods to 3D data from 168 adult hominid individuals, summing a total of >1000 cervical vertebrae.
We found the atlas C1 & axis C2 display the lowest co-variation with the cranium in hominids: H.sapiens, P.troglodytes & paniscus, G.gorilla & beringei, Pongo pygmaeus.
Hs show a rel.different pattern of cranio-cervical correlation vs chimps & gorillas, esp. in variables implicated in maintaining the balance of the head.
The atlas & axis show lower magnitude of shape change during evolution than the rest of the cervical vertebrae, esp. those located in the middle of the subaxial cervical spine.
Overall, results suggest that differences in the pattern of cranio-cervical correlation between humans & gorillas & chimps could reflect the postural differences between these groups.
Also, the stronger cranio-cervical integration & larger magnitude of shape change during evolution shown by the middle cervical vertebrae suggests that they have been selected to play an active role in maintaining head balance.
Terrestrials have larger brains than arboreals & aerials.
Arboreals & aerials have more sophisticated brains than terrestrials.
Humans are terrestrials with arboreal ancestry have large sophisticated brains.
The spine and cranium have changed to allow this.

Seafood = brainfood. DHA etc. Dolphins, seals etc.
Ear exostoses. Pachyosteosclerosis.
Google "coastal dispersal Pleistocene Homo PPT".
Only incredibe imbeciles believe Homo evolved larger brains to run after antelopes.

Inland trout (shallow crystalline streams) have *higher DHA & EPA omega 3 oils* than coastal oysters or mussels.

yes, neandertals had even brains larger than sapiens:
this confirms my hypothesis:
neandertals seasonally followed the river from the sea:
salmon?? trout??
Rest of your nonsense snipped:

Colder climate fatter heads cf exostoses, ask Mario.Inland trout (shallow crystalline streams) have *higher DHA & EPA omega 3 oils* than coastal oysters or mussels.something intelligent:
yes, neandertals had even brains larger than sapiens:
this confirms my hypothesis:Trout live inland, salmon in the sea but lay eggs inland before dying. No neanderthals in East Asia or New World so rich in salmon.

salmon?? trout??
