1. what are the similarities between the bonobos and humans?
431117
Bonobos seem in many ways to be more similar to humans than chimpanzees. In the proportions of the limbs, in the narrower trunk and in the smaller canine teeth the bonobo more closely resembles humans. When observed in captivity they also walk bipedally more often.

Pigs have very similar skin and flesh Continuing anatomical similarity, pigs and humans share very similar skin and flesh. Pig skin is often used as tattoo practice for work on human skin, and those in the know have said that human flesh tastes most similar to pork.

(c) Gibbon, Gorilla and Orangutan are apes, but Langur is not an ape, it is prosimians.

While apes and monkeys are both primates, and are part of the same primate suborder, there are lots of differences between them. There are also lots of other sorts of primates. ... Anthropoids, commonly called the "higher primates," comprise the rest of the species in the primate order.

Monkeys and apes are both primates, which means they're both part of the human family tree. ... Although you can't recognize this difference on sight, apes have an appendix and monkeys do not. Apes are generally more intelligent than monkeys, and most species of apes exhibit some use of tools.

Evolutionary biologists can use DNA to study the evolutionary relationships, or phylogeny, between humans and other primates. Humans show the greatest genetic similarity to chimps and bonobos and thus are most closely related to these species, followed by African great apes, Asian great apes and lastly rhesus monkeys.

While humans and orangutans are similar at the DNA level, comparing available primate genome sequences revealed that the orangutan has evolved much more slowly than chimpanzees and humans. The orangutan genome has fewer large DNA sequence structural rearrangements than its chimpanzee and human counterparts.

Within the suborder of anthropoids, primates are grouped into monkeys, apes and hominids. The easiest way to distinguish monkeys from the other anthropoids is to look for a tail. Most monkey species have tails, but no apes or hominids do. Monkeys are much more like other mammals than apes and humans are.

Humans belong to the biological group known as Primates, and are classified with the great apes, one of the major groups of the primate evolutionary tree. Besides similarities in anatomy and behavior, our close biological kinship with other primate species is indicated by DNA evidence.

When the Max Planck scientists compared the bonobo genome directly with that of chimps and humans, however, they found that a small bit of our DNA, about 1.6%, is shared with only the bonobo, but not chimpanzees. And we share about the same amount of our DNA with only chimps, but not bonobos.

Monkeys and apes are both primates, which means they're both part of the human family tree. ... Almost all monkeys have tails; apes do not.

Bonobos are known as the "friendly" apes. Through the use of "bonobo TV," researchers found that bonobos' yawns are contagious, like humans. But while they have humanlike traits, their biggest threat comes from humans. "When the two groups meet, they will not be as aggressive as chimpanzees," Tan says.

Apes are monkeys in the same way that monkeys are primates, humans are apes and I am a human – it's called a nested hierarchy. This means that all apes are monkeys, but not all monkeys are apes. Just as all humans are apes, but not all apes are human.

Of all living species, people are genetically and evolutionarily closest to the African apes. Subsequently, we have been placed into the same subfamily, the Homininae. A comparison of DNA nucleotide sequences of living primate species show that humans are most closely related to the African apes.

The relationship between two organism, based on their common evolution. ... It is correct to say Humans and Chimpanzees had a common evolutionary ancestor. Based on that common ancestor, Humans and Chimpanzees have an evolutionary relationship.

Starting the chimpanzee genome project Human and chimpanzee chromosomes are very similar. The primary difference is that humans have one fewer pair of chromosomes than do other great apes. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes and other great apes have 24 pairs of chromosomes.

The greatest similarity between human and animal communication is through the use of sound. Humans convey emotion through the use of words and tone in much the same way as animals communicate emotion through sound.
