Transfers ToUC and CSUCal-GETC Area 5B · IGETC Area 5B · CSU GE Area B2DescriptionPhysical anthropology is the study of humans as biological beings subject to the forces of both evolution and culture. Physical anthropology studies humans in a biological context and explains our relationship to other primates and the rest of the natural world. Throughout the course we will examine anatomical, behavioral, and genetic similarities and differences among the living primates, and by illustrating the scientific method, learn the basic mechanism of the evolutionary processes and trace a pathway of human evolution in relation to environmental adaptation as reconstructed from the fossil record.Usually HeldThu 6:30pm–9:40pm, Thu 9:40am–11:05am
