<p>man, what if we are all overthinking this, and the answer really was increased brain capacity</p>
<p>someone shoot all ambiguous test writers</p>
<p>If you want, you can email ETS about that question.</p>
<p>If anyone is really dying the figure out the answer to the ape question, read this website:
<a href=“http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/species.html[/url]”>http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/species.html</a>
It lists all the species considered “hominids” and how they relate to apes and modern humans, chronologically.</p>
<p>I think one of us should email ETS about it. Unless that just causes ETS to become annoyed and not be very nice about the curve. Wouldn’t want that</p>
<p>just to clarify:</p>
<p>the segmentation/no segmentation is between annelids (segmented worms: think earthworms and leeches) and platyhelminthes (flatworms like tapeworm that are parasitic in people’s digestive tracts).</p>
<p>Oh, crud… Didn’t realize we were on page 25 already.</p>
<p>From late edits on pg. 24 that prolly noone read:</p>
<p>And why isn’t the answer just brain cavity size? Really, isn’t cavity size just the same as brain volume (how would researchers determine whether the size of brain soft tissue was really smaller than the solid cavity?)</p>
<p>Also, wikipedia has a comparative table of early humans with modern homo sapiens here: <a href=“Human evolution - Wikipedia”>Human evolution - Wikipedia;
and clearly there is a difference in brain volume - from 600cm^3 to 1,850cm^3.</p>
<p>Second, enlargement of the cerebral cortex as the primary factor leading to modern man’s ability to think is pretty widespread in texts… Or at the very least, that’s what that one video with the Japanese guy (Suzuki?) and the crappy 1996 whoah-look-this-is-3D gfx on the amazing brain said.</p>
<p>Karch: in response to your link: (dammit how do you quote people?!?!)</p>
<p>The chart you looked at showed ONLY the HOMO species. However, hominids also include these people: <a href=“http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/species.html[/url]”>http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/species.html</a>
whose skulls were incredibly similar in size to modern chimps. In fact, the skulls of the australopithecus afarensis (considered a homonid) and Pan troglodytes (a chimp) are remarkably similar.</p>
<p>Karch, I’m not saying you are wrong - you could in fact be right. I hope you are right - my answer was brain cavity too. I’m just irritated at the friggin ambiguity of the question.</p>
<p>what was the last question of the molecular section (or a question from the last page)?
I think I might have accidentally skipped the last page 
also, for those who took the molecular, were the molecular gridded answers 81 to the bottom of the column?</p>
<p>I guess the key to the entire question is “when early hominids lived with apes”.</p>
<p>Edit: Scratch that, early hominids always lived at the same time as apes…</p>
<p>Dang it, you’re right perplxd. Ahh, I think I’ve had enough ■■■■■■■■ for one night, on the same thread now, and on a forum about college no less… </p>
<p>Good luck everyone, I’m sure we all did fine.</p>
<p>I was under the impression that the lastish question asked which population do you NOT know cannot compete with 5, so I put 6 since it was in an entirely different plate. I might have read the question wrong.</p>
<p>What exactly did the question with the .9% salt concentration ask?</p>
<p>if an animal cell is placed inside of a .9% salt solution, what will happen to the cell</p>
<p>i thought it was if an animal cell had .9% concentration in it, what would happen if you placed it in distilled water</p>
<p>It will swell and then burst with the intake of water?</p>
<p>o yeah, sorry, you’re right mm</p>
<p>Either way, it’s still swell and burst…</p>
<p>Yes, perplxd answered this, although there was debate over it before. So far, majority of CCers agree the answer is swell & burst</p>
<p>I’m freaking mucho out about this. Can someone please tell me what I can expect with 2 omits and 5-6 wrong?</p>
