human evolution
A paleo-anthropologist is similar to a biological anthropologist as they both study human evolution, biological adaptations, and the behavior of early humans, but a paleo-anthropologist specifically focuses on the study of fossil evidence and ancient hominins to understand human origins and evolution.
Biological anthropologists are mainly interested in studying the biological aspects of humans and non-human primates, including their evolution, genetics, behavior, and adaptation to different environments. They also examine the interactions between biology and culture, such as how environment and genetic factors influence human health and disease.
A biological anthropologist would typically examine human remains found at archaeological sites. They study aspects like biological variation, health, and behavior of past populations by analyzing bones and teeth.
A physical anthropologist investigates the biological evolution and variation of humans, including topics such as skeletal anatomy, genetics, primatology, and forensic anthropology. They study how humans have adapted to different environments and how they have evolved over time.
Some daily activities for a physical anthropologist may include analyzing skeletal remains, conducting fieldwork to collect biological data, studying primate behavior, and using genetic analyses to understand human evolution.

A physical or biological anthropologist can work up close with monkeys whether it is in a wildlife sanctuary or even at a zoo.
After his mother had her son (the future president) when she was a college student, she and Barack's father divorced; she continued her education, ultimately got a PhD and became an anthropologist. Barack never had much contact with his biological father-- he was a little baby when his father left, and he only saw his dad one other time. His biological father had a background in economics and studied for a while at Harvard. Barack also briefly had a step-father who worked for the Indonesian government. It should be noted that Barack Obama was mainly raised by his maternal grandparents, who lived in Honolulu and worked hard to make sure he got a good education.
