What is the difference between monkeys and apes?

From what I've read, two of the main differances are that monkeys are generally considered intelligent, and unlike apes, they usually have tails. (according to wikipedia)- Monkeys have tails and apes do not.- Monkeys have slanted nasal openings.- Apes have rounded nasal openings.- Apes generally have bigger brains and larger bodies than monkeys.- Monkeys have web foot and apes do not have.- Monkeys are smaller in terms of size and apes are biggerThe distinction has more to do with taxonomy than macroscopic differences, which applies as general guides more than rules (they have been separated on these standards though, at the very beginning):- Apes are : Chimps, Gorillas, Orangutans and Gibbons.- Monkeys are all primates non-apes and non-prosimians (lemurs)Apes don't have tails and monkeys do. Also apes are much bigger and stronger

What type of creature is a gorilla?

There are two species of gorilla (each with two sub-species). They are primates (they have forward facing eyes and grasping hands). Until fairly recently, gorillas would have been classified as great apes, but it was realised that at least one "great ape" was more closely related to humans than to other great apes so this has led to a reclassification and the gorilla species (as well as the two chimpanzee species) are now classified as hominid.
