Walking upright, or bipedalism, offers several adaptive advantages, including improved energy efficiency over long distances, the ability to see over tall grass and spot potential predators or food sources, and the freeing of the hands for tool use and carrying objects. This evolutionary development also supports thermoregulation by reducing direct sunlight exposure to the body. Additionally, bipedalism facilitates social interactions and communication, as it allows for more expressive gestures and posture. Overall, it has contributed significantly to human survival and societal development.
