Lecture 1: hominids: human-like animal, including modern human and recent ancestors, hominid evolution, homo neanderthalensis. Parallel evolutionary branch, 300,000 to 30, 000; Quite sophisticated social and mental life, e. g. ritual, burial of. How mental states are related to the physical processes that happen within our brain and body, such as the signaling between nerve cells can be solved as we know more about brain physiology. Lecture 3: dimitri mendeleev, periodic table of the elements, elemental abundances in the human body: in a living organism with water, by weight, oxygen is #1, carbon is #2, and hydrogen is #3; by number, hydrogen would be #1. In a dry weight the case, carbon is. And the top ve in any circumstance of both dry weight or wet weight would be, in some order or another, would be oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and calcium.
