Research Shows Twin Births Were Common in Ancient Primate Evolution
Research suggests that ancient primates, including early humans, typically gave birth to twins, a common trait in their evolutionary history. Over time, singletons became more prevalent due to the survival advantages of larger, more developed offspring. This shift is linked to the evolution of primates' larger brains and bodies, requiring more ener...
