Question

Rosati and Warneken showed that the cognitive capacities needed for this process like patience and planning are present in chimpanzees. Michael Pollan supported an evolutionary hypothesis regarding this process in a book framed around the four elements. A chimpanzee with a drawn hat appears on the cover of a book about how this process “Made Us Human” by Richard (15[1])Wringham, who argued (-5[1])it led to an increase in brain (-5[1])size. A (*) triangle classifying (10[1])kinds of this process includes axes labeled “unchanged” to “changed” and“culture” to “nature”; that model appears in Mythologiques, whose first volume contrasts material that has and hasn’t undergone this process. Limited access to wood led to the practice of using cow dung as fuel for this process (-5[1])in India. For 10 points, name this process traditionally done with a tandoor or wok. ■END■ (10[3]0[1])
