  1. As hominids became smarter, they learned how to use their hands on more important tasks, and after many generations of hominids, they started to permanently walk upright.


  2. Within the past 2 million years, as we hominins made the transition from meat-eating scavengers, to meat-eating hunters, our brain capacity steadily increased!

  3. Bipedalism came first, and as a result or connected to this, humans acquired larger brains. Humans could see predators from farther away by standing in the grasses of the savannah, that's one connection.

  4. We acquired bipedalism first.  Lucy walked upright and had a small brain.
