Why are our fingers, different lengths ??

  Different length fingers make the best grip  +  tool hand !!!!


If all fingers were of same length, our hand would be pretty useless !!!


If we try making fist ,  our fingers naturally curl into a curve that matches round things.



Thumb  =  It is a clamp that works against other fingers.


Index  +  Ring  =  They help with  precision and power.


Middle finger  =  Anchor in the centre.


Pinky finger  ≠  It tucks in and adds stability.


This length difference lets the hand to form a power grip.

If.the fingers were equal,  we would just have a paddle  !!!



Our ancestors needed hand for climbing. 

Equal fingers would have made us worse at surviving,making tools etc
