How is a human spine different from most other mammals How does this difference benefit humans?
The human spine is uniquely structured with an S-shaped curvature, which helps to balance the body over the pelvis and supports upright walking. This curvature provides better shock absorption and weight distribution compared to the straight spines of many other mammals. Additionally, the bipedal posture and flexibility of the human spine facilitate a wider range of motion, enabling complex movements and activities essential for tool use and other dexterous tasks. This adaptation has been crucial for human survival and development.
