| News Hound  |  Slashdot // Chimpanzees Shed New Light on Hand Preference An anonymous reader writes "'Language skills are associated with the left side of the brain, and many scientists have said early humans developed a preference for their right hands when they acquired speech,' but Emory University's Yerkes National Primate Research Center has a new study that links hand preference to the motor skills area of the brain rather than the language part of the brain. 'That means lefties have probably been around much longer than believed — at least 5 million years, when scientists say humans and apes branched on the primate family tree. And evolution has purposely kept them.'" http://science.slashdot.org/article....48227&from=rss | |
