Trait- Strong leg muscles allowed for Lucy to walk around on the ground and hunt for food, Today we humans have stronger Leg muscles that allow us to walk/run very long distances, and it helps us with out daily lives considering we move around a lot. Much more then Lucy and her kind did.

Trait- Stronger upper body
During Lucy's time she needed a strong upper body to climb trees. Her leg muscles were not as strong because when climbing a tree you mostly use your arms. Today, humans have a stronger lower body (legs) because we walk upright and are putting all of our weight on our legs to support ourselves.

# data[].attributes.body
Lucy was born with a very strong upper body, this is because due to her being primitive she needs that upper body to climb trees. where as we have a strong lower body because we as humans walk a lot therefore need strong legs.

Trait: Flexible Shoulders
Our shoulders became less flexible than Lucy's were because we evolved more into a walking creature than climbing trees. Swinging from trees wasn't done. Flexible shoulders were less necessary.

Trait: Opposable thumbs on feet
Since we started walking more often than climbing, it wasn't necessary to have the opposable thumb on our feet. Our feet evolved to be more designed for walking

Trait: Bendy Knees
During Lucy's time the knees were much weaker rather than now we have more flexibility and they can now also become more stronger. This happened because us humans are more exposed to new things making us develop more flexibility and strength.

Trait: Strong Upper Body

Lucy had a strong upper body. She had strong legs an arms which enabled her to climb trees easier.  Today, we use lower body strength in regards to walking.

Trait: Opposable thumbs on feet
We no longer needed to climb trees in order to get away from predators or to get food. Having the thumb toe would not be useful for walking because it would make our balance uneven. Since we also wear shoes now instead of walking around barefoot having the thumb toe would not make sence

# data[].attributes.body
Lucy's fingers for climbing were "bendy" and flexible, which enabled her to climb trees and grapple onto branches. Over time, Lucy's fingers began to curve and bend more. The reason for this is less climbing and activeness.

Trait: long arms and short body

In addition to us becoming taller, our arm length became more relative to our height. This is because we became more of a land-based creature and had less need for tree-climbing features.

# data[].attributes.body
Lucy had longer toes and now we don't need them because we do not climb as much as she did and we do not need to grab things with our toes. such as fruit to eat.

Trait: Having opposable thumbs on feet.
Change: An arched foot with no thumb on feet
Reason: No need to climb as often, more of a need to run on the ground so their feet changed to accommodate said needs.

# data[].attributes.body
Lucy has a strong upper body and we have stronger legs.  This is because Lucy's body is good for climbing trees.  The modern human body is more adapted for walking, rather than tree climbing because we do not need to climb trees to get food.

# data[].attributes.body
over time human shoulders have changed shape and but still have the same use as apes did. Lucy used her arms more to gather and collect for and to swing from branches, humans don't do much of that now so over time humans cant bend them as for as Lucy could because we aren't as flexible as she was.

# data[].attributes.body
A trait that changed from Lucy to now was bone size and this changed because Lucy was about 3 feet tall where as humans now are about 5 or 6 feet tall and I think that this change occurred because we now need to get around faster and walk much faster then Lucy could.

# data[].attributes.body
We no longer have long arms, we now have arms that only go down to our mid thighs. This changed because we do not need long arms to climb trees to pick fruit.
