Chimpanzees are are like monkeys except bigger, don't have tails, and eat different things then them. So, basically they are apes. They look like regular apes that are hairy, smell, pucker their lips a lot, and are very smart.

Chimps look like humans because we share a common ancestor--i.e. we are genetically related. The common ancestor is believed to have lived around 7 million years ago, when the chimp and human lines split. The precursors of our eyes, noses, mouths, hands, arms, torsos, legs, feet, etc. had already been shaped through the forces of natural selection by this time. Humans look slightly different from Chimps because we headed in a different evolutionary path. They chose to stay in the shrinking forests of ancient Africa, while human ancestors began to wander into the savannah beyond. Hence, it is believe that our need to carry items over land between forested areas is what caused the formation of our current foot design and bipedal locomotion. And because we were no longer protected from the sun's rays by the forest canopy, traits for less and less hair were selected for so we could cool our bodies. This in turn lead to a darkening of the skin via melanin to keep it from burning.

Primates - think Chimpanzee, Gorilla. Orang Utan - these are all members of the Primate Family.

How does DNA evidence support the claim that chimps are the most closely related to humans?

You can see that chimps are related to humans from DNA. We share about 98% of the nucleotides with chimps. The ERV's between chimps and humans are reverse transcripted into both creatures in the same spots and that is not plausible by anything but a relationship with them. The Chromosomes are identical except for chromosome #2 in humans and that shows a fusion of two chromosomes from our ancestors. Chimps along with all of our primate cousins are going extinct. Like in comparative morphology, comparative genomics shows that in the nested hierarchies, chimps have the most homologies and the fewest differences in a nucleotide by nucleotide comparison of the genome.
