Answer 1

Scavenger. Homo Habilis was a scavenger.

Answer 2

Homo habilis was a Scvenger as he ate the leftovers of animals that had been hunted by other animals. ​

Explanation:

Because of the abundance of protein, the brains of homo habilis grew significantly larger. The enlarged brains of the homo habilis proved to be a significant benefit. They learnt how to create weapons so they could hunt rather than eat the lions' scraps. They could now identify patterns in the movements of creatures like giselles, such as how they hopped from side to side, which made hunting species like giselles much easier.  They discovered fire and learned about its mechanics, among other things.

Bone structure is the next item on the agenda. Now, the homo habilis did not have the same bone structure as us, the homo sapiens, but it was a step forward.

Scavengers:

• A scavenger is a type of organism that eats decaying biomass such as flesh or rotting plant matter. Many scavengers are carnivores, or organisms that devour meat.
• Scavengers are an element of the food web, which describes which organisms in the wild devour which other organisms.

Example of scavengers:

• Scavengers are animals that eat dead plant and animal matter in their environment.
• Carnivores make up the majority of scavengers. Raccoon, Golden jackal, Leopard, African lion, and other scavengers are examples.
