Primates

The two suborders of primates that are recognized today are Strepsirrhini (lemurs and lorises) and Haplorrhini (tarsiers, monkeys, apes, and humans). The taxonomy of primates is an issue that is not resolved and has undergone many revisions over the years. Our Primates category attempts to deal with questions about primate species and subspecies described prior to and since the latest revisions.

Are primates vertebrates?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Apart from the genus homo (humans) the types of primate locomotion are quadrupedalism (moving on all fours/with all four limbs), brachiation (swinging, branch running), and vertical clinging and leaping. "Arboreal quadrupedalism" is the most common type of locomotion among the primate order, meaning the use of grasping hands and feet with a long tail for balance. Although other primate walk on two limbs at times, humans are the only primates that actively engage in bipedalism (standing), the form of locomotion in which two limbs are used for moving.

Are humans primates or mammals?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Humans are mammals

Answer 2

Mammals are warm-blooded, have fur or hair, feed their young with milk from mammary glands (breasts) and give birth to live young.

Reptiles are cold blooded, have no fur or hair, do not feed their young with milk, and lay eggs.

I'm sure you can work it out from that.

It depends on what you mean by "primitive." The strepsirrhine primates and tarsiers have many traits that are ancestral for primates. However, strepsirrhines have more of these traits. Their group includes the lorises (and relatives) and the lemurs (including the Aye-aye).

Why do monkeys have tails but people and apes don't?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This seems to be a common misconception - humans did not come from monkeys - but we do share a common ancestor with them. This common ancestor did not directly give rise to humans, it gave rise to the ape clad. These early apes divided into other evolutionary clad - we belong to just one of them.

The ape clad possesses certain shared traits that distinguish them from monkeys - one of these traits is not having a tail. The very first apes had no tails - a trait that is shared by all the species that descended from them.

Tails were lost in hominids prior to 17.9 Million years ago in response to the different ecological pressures experienced by apes. Ape ancestors did not hang from their tails (only South American monkeys can do this). In fact certain species of monkeys also lost their tails via evolutionary pressures.

Apes evolved powerful grasping hands and feet and moved through trees differently than tailed monkeys to take advantage of different resources. They eventually lost the extra bones beyond their coccyx that inhibited their locomotion.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Horses mainly eat grass when they are in a field, but it isn't very filling.

When in a Stable, you usually feed them Hay, Chaff or Oats. You can also use carrots, apples, sugar lumps, polo mints, etc for treats. It's a good idea to give your horse treats from time to time, but make sure you never give them too many.

Hope this helps xx
