The fossilevidence suggests that the adaptations necessary for articulate speech occurred only recently in hominid evolution. A thorough understanding of how such constituents change over time would allow us to extrapolate, from fossilevidence, aspects of the original biochemistry. Finally, although it is not clear exactly when mammalian brain expansion began, fossilevidence indicates that this was a late event in mammaliaform evolution. However, the currently available fossilevidence is not very conclusive regarding the precise age of these formations. The authors also assess how fossilevidence could shed light on isocortical origin. However, our main interest here is in the discovery of fossilevidence for more conventional, photosynthetic forms of life originating from an earlier epoch. It is potentially falsifiable from further evidence from our great-ape cousins, and perhaps from further fossilevidence on anatomical and inferred functional asymmetries in the early hominids. Attempts made to reconcile the molecular and fossilevidence have proved controversial. From Wikipedia This example is from Wikipedia and may be reused under a CC BY-SA license.
