Yes. We're not just descendant from them, we are apes (and therefore must logically also be descendant from apes). Of course we're not descended from any modern species of ape: we share a common ancestor with the other modern apes, which would also have been an ape.

humans did not descend directly from apes. We have a common ancestor with the modern apes. This common ancestor would have lived between 5 and 7 million years ago.

∙ 11y agoYes. Technically, humans are apes, as well as primates, mammals, vertebrates and eukaryotes. However the non-scientific view that humans are descended from some early ape-like primate that started to have human babies (provoking the Creationist question of "Well, if humans are descended from apes why do we still have apes!") is wrong. Humans and apes have a common ancestor some 4 to 6 million years ago. From that common evolution led to the development of today's humans, chimpanzees and bonobos.

How the first human came to be?
According to scientific theory, the first human, known as Homo sapiens, evolved over millions of years from earlier hominid species through a process of natural selection and genetic mutations. This evolutionary process took place in Africa, with the oldest known fossils of Homo sapiens dating back around 300,000 years. This gradual transition from ancestral primates led to the emergence of the modern human species.
