Why Control Activity? Evolutionary Selection Pressures Affecting the Development of Physical Activity Genetic and Biological Regulation

Figure 2

Total time spent in vigorous, moderate, or walking activity on a daily basis in hunter/gatherer (Nunoa, Ju/’hoansi, Hadza) or nontechnological agriculture-based populations (Tamang, Mossi, Devarishi Kuppam, Amish, and Senegali). Data from [39–41, 45, 46, 50, 54, 56, 60]. *Hadza activity time based on estimates from [41] which provide the only known total daily activity time estimates for this population.
