what is the difference between monkeys and gorillas?
600246
Gorillas are great apes, a group that includes the living species humans, chimpanzees, bonobos, and orangutans. The lesser apes include the gibbons. Monkeys are separate but related groups. The old world monkeys including baboons, mandrills, etc. and the New World monkeys, including howlers, and capuchins. The old world monkeys are more closely related to the apes than the new world monkeys are. So the differences you are probably looking for are between apes (which include the gorilla) and old world monkeys. There are numerous differences that include the presence of a tail in most monkeys, toughened pads on monkey rear-ends, and differences in the teeth form.

Guerilla with full combat gear would have the advantage over a Grizzly Bear.\nA GORILLA, on the other hand, may not fare so well against either.  Both the Grizzly and Gorilla have massive strength to size ratios, but the Grizzly wins out hands down on the claws and teeth aspect while the Gorilla is mainly an herbivore with no claws and dentition to match.

Macaque is a kind of monkey, but I suspect you're referring to the word macaca, which is a derrogatory term for black people. The latter word was famously used by a politician recently, captured on camera, and shown frequently on YouTube and The Daily Show.

Different apes.  Both people and present-day apes evolved from a common ancestor which was ape-like, but not the same as a present-day ape.

Apes include gibbons, orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, bonobos and humans are said to 'chatter'\n\nOrang-utan bands in Borneo and Sumatra both make kiss-like squeaking noises to communicate, but only in Borneo have they learned to cup their hands over their mouths to change the noise.\n\nGibbons - there are 11 different types - are all very good at singing. but technically they whoop\n\nmonkeys were said to 'natter' in india, screech in Africa, and howl in indonesia. \n\nbut to answer your question, monkeys chatter, when they make quick repeated noises. However so do birds?\n\nthey also babble in the background\n\n\n\n\n\npresimians (lemurs) bark

They are two different species. Bonobos are believed to have broken away about two million years ago.\n\nBonobos are smaller than chimpanzees, and have a more humanlike frame, with square shoulders and long lean limbs. Bonobos walk upright from time to time, where chimps stick strictly to their knuckles for the most part.\n\nChimps are a more "warlike" ape, and male dominated. Bonobos have a culture heavily focused on easing tensions within the group, and they usually accomplish this via sex. Bonobos are quite promiscuous, and will engage in sexual activity for just about any reason - recreational, easing tensions, as a favour, or in celebration. Bonobos also tend to be somewhat matriarchal - the most influential apes are the females.

First of all, chimps are NOT monkeys! The biggest difference is that a monkey has a tail and a chimp does not, both are primates.\nChimps and humans share 98.4% DNA\nChimps do like bananas, however chimps favorite foods are passion fruit, mangoes, jack fruit & peanuts.

Gorillas may be powerful, but the largest bears are more than twice as large and heavy than even the largest gorillas, so assuming that the fight involves a large bear, then the bear would win.\nHowever, if it was a small bear then I would guess that maybe the gorilla could use its strength to overpower the bear.

A chimp is smaller than a man, but 6 times stronger for a given size. The chimp is a bit stronger than Mr. T, but doesn't know how to wrestle.

I believe they are the same kind of creature.  There is an ape that was thought to be exintic gigantise pithagous, this is spelled wrong I know, I think some still live in remote areas and with man going into these areas they now are seen more often

Monkeys are NOT ancestors of humans; they share the same common ancestor. this question does not have a simple answer; you need to study cladistics and phylogenic trees such as these to understand.\n\nhttp://www.personal.psu.edu/students/a/v/avh5000/\nhttp://www.origins.tv/darwin/hominid.htm\nhttp://www.4colorvision.com/files/phylotree.htm

Gorillas do not drink water.̶1; They go on to explain thusly:\n\nGorillasR17; diet is based on fruits and stems, and these succulent foods provide neough water to sustain them. Gorillas also eat some invertebrates, such as ants and insects, but they have never been observed hunting or feeding on any other animals.

A chimpanzee is way smaller.  A gorilla looks like a human-size version of King Kong.

Depends on the monkey.\n\nSome monkeys live in jungles, which are technically a type of woods, usually referring specifically to tropical rain forests.\n\nThere are also monkeys that live in a number of other habitats, from plains to hills, to mountains, rocky coasts, and even human cities.  Some of them live in temperate forests as well.  There are any number of Asian species that thrive in areas we would feel comfortable calling 'woods'.

Monkeys are anthropoid primates.  Their closest living relatives are the tarsiers.  The next closest relatives are the strepsirhine primates like lemurs, bushbabies, and lorises.\n\nThe anthropoid/tarsier group may have been derived from a group of small tarsier-like creatures called omomyids.  The primates as a whole were probably derived from lemur-like animals.  The plesiadapids were lemur/rodent-like animals in the early Paleocene.  Modern primates likely came from a subset of plesiadapids.  This may have been true for flying lemurs and tree shrews as well.  A tree shrew like creature may have also been the ancestor of this group.
