Imagine you are a world famous primatologist, a scientist who studies primates. An

unidentified, complete fossil skeleton arrives at your lab. You suspect that it's a primate
fossil. What observations would you make to determine if your suspicions are accurate?

The first thing I would do is compare it to another primate skeleton and contrast the two skeletons. Next I would try to brainstorm whether or not it’s a cousin of let’s say an orangutan or gorilla.
(This is all I could come up with sorry)
