How are apes and monkeys similar?

Both apes and monkeys are primates and, by default, mammals, have color vision, live primarily in wooded or forested areas, have a structured hierarchy, and have offspring that take a while to mature.


Do monkeys or apes have good color vision?

I'd say BOTH. Monkeys are almost identical to humans. So what I would suggest is to take the info from that.


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

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.

What are the characteristics that define hominindae?

The hominidae are the "great apes." There are multiple ape species including chimpanzees, orangutans, gorillas and humans. Apes are not monkeys, and monkeys are not apes. The apes are all tailless primates. They are omnivores and most prefer fruits. They have three different types of teeth. The molars (3,) the smaller premolars (2,) the canines (1) and the incisors (2.) They are all social animals and the females do not have a distinct breeding season. All apes gestate for around 9 months or so and their young mature in about 10 years (give or take a few years.) Some of the apes are are more closely related to each other than others. There is a subgroup to hominidae that is homininae. This group is composed of chimpanzees, gorillas and humans but not the aforementioned orangutans. There is another subgroup, hominini. This group eliminates the gorillas and includes humans and chimpanzees.
