The crests of bone on the cheeks of the male mandrill support the colorful pads of skin as seen in the photograph on the wall.

Once students have arranged their silhouettes, they should be advised to look at which silhouettes they are next to, and watch future slides to see if their silhouette regularly ends up next to the same members of the population, or different ones.

For Simon says, the instructor can say “Simon says to draw the __ plane in the air” or “Simon says to indicate ‘lateral’” by pointing. Label the letters A through F on the diagram below with the corresponding directional terms. Draw a line between terms in the two columns to match the paired terms.

In both examples, the anthropologist is using a holistic approach by considering the multiple interrelated and intersecting factors that comprise a given phenomena.
