They ate them or used them to help with work.
Horses are "broken" to be ridden. Cats were "domesticated" to live with humans.
Humans select certain traits from a dog or cow's offspring to use for whatever purpose they have in mind. These traits are then passed on down to future offspring and selected further by other humans who purchase and use the animals for their use. Thus that's what "artificial selection" is all about: humans doing the genetic selection and looking for certain qualities in domesticated animals that they can "exploit" or use to their advantage.
The swim Lol :D
Omnivores are animals that eat both plants and other animals but when it comes to humans it should be more carefully defined as animals that have the natural capability to eat plants and other animals. When animals other than humans have this natural capability, they use it. However, humans are sentient and can choose for themselves. Therefore, even if humans have the natural capability, they can choose not to use it because of religious or ethical beliefs.
The main reason that early humans domesticated animals was for companionship. Another reason they did this was for protection.
Changing plants or animals to make them more useful to humans is known as domestication. One important example would be the horse. Horses used to run wild until Native Americans tamed them and used them for travel and for work.
settled, permanent communities developed
The Olmec's were the first major civilization in Mexico. The domesticated animals they used was the dog, and it was a major source of protein for them.
No, humans do not need photosynthesis to survive. Photosynthesis is a process by which plants make their own food using sunlight, but humans get their energy from consuming food, not sunlight. Photosynthesis is essential for plants, but not for humans.
Pigs, cows , and chickens are all domesticated animals.
domesticated animals are bred specially for human use and are comfortable with people. Wild animals have never experienced human contact and fear people.
I believe sometime in the New Stone Age humans had learned to tame and breed animals for their own use.
