e, people would migrate to other places seeking happiness or freedom. As people move from one place to another, they tend to pick up the different cultural traits (characteristics) and slowly adapt to them. The evolutionary theory helps in understanding this human migration because as people evolve and babies are born, they must adapt to their environment. For example, a Chinese born baby is transported to the middle of South Africa. This Chinese born baby will eventually grow up in a completely different environment than which it was made to originally survive in, but because humans are made to adapt to change and so is the human body, that Chinese baby will accept it's new environment. This is how human migration is made possible. Cultural development then follows. The Chinese born baby will grow up in South Africa and become part of this new culture which will eventually become very familiar to him/her. There are basic instincts which humans tend to follow regardless of where they are. So, although the people may be different from what a Chinese baby would expect to grow up with, the Chinese baby will be culturally accepted because at such an early age, he/she would not know any better than to just follow the South African cultural norms. As the Chinese baby grows up, he/she will gain a social identity of his/her own. He/She will either like the environment he is in or he will migrate somewhere else, become part of a new culture and find himself/herself a new social identity. Therefore one can see how human migration, cultural development, and social identity interlink one another, and can also see why there are so many different people that make up the world we live in today. .: 8 :.Islam- Muslims fast for one month during Ramadan- Judaism - Jewish people fast once a year on Yom Kippur- Islam scripture is the Quran- Judaism’s scripture is the Torah- Muslims pray at a mosque, Jewish people pray in a synagogue- Muslims practice ...
