Hypothesis: If the skull has similar measurements as the homosapien, then the organism is most likely bipedal.
Variables:
Dependent- The skulls
Independent- the measurements of the skull
Materials:
Protractor
Caliper
The eleven skull models we used
Pencil
Graph to record measurements
Procedure:
Gather all your materials …show more content…
To get the maxillary angle, you lay the skull on its side on the table
You then use the protractor and measure the angle made by the Nasion, Maxilla and the Socket.
You then find the height, width and length of the skull using a caliper
You then find the cranial captivity by Multiplying the length by width by height then you multiply by .5236
