Imagine that certain laws of physics could be ignored and you were able to travel vast distances in moments. Now imagine that you traveled to an Earth-like planet located light-years away that is known to support life. Think about what you’ve learned in this unit and make an argument for what you think would be the dominant type of life form on this planet. Consider whether a notochord is required for an organism to manipulate its environment and become a dominant creature.
Well, it's kind of hard to answer this question without knowledge of what you learned in "this unit", but the dominant specie(s) is dependent on it's environment. And what about the other non-dominant species? Humans are the dominant land mammals of Earth. Mainly due to our intelligence. But if other land mammals also favored intelligence vs brawn, then who knows who would be the dominant species? Like I said, It's all circumstantial.
