Answer:

As an example of an exaptation, Gould (1991) used the large size of the human brain and its function of enabling humans to produce speech. The large brain size, according to his argument, originally arose as an adaptation for some (unspecified) functions in humans' ancestral past ( Gould, 1991 ).
