FROM SEED TO NUTS: HUMAN ANCESTOR'S FACE EVOLVED TO EAT SURVIVAL FOODS
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- The facial structure of an ancient relative of modern humans may have evolved to allow them to eat large, hard nuts and seeds as part of a survival strategy, according to a new study by an international team of researchers that includes Florida State University’s Dennis E. Slice.
