Primate evolution and behavior, such as hunting skills, have been directed in part by the development of depth perception. What anatomical change made depth perception possible?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Depth perception is possible when both eyes are placed forward, allowing them to overlap in the visual field. This overlap, called binocular vision, creates two slightly different images that the brain can use to calculate depth and distance. This is achieved through the movement of the eyes to the front of the head, which is a trait shared by primates.
