What else can I help you with?
Is it rue that humans have not descended from chimpanzees but do have a common ancestor with them?
Humans did not evolve from chimpanzees. According the the theory of evolution, all types of organisms share a common ancestor. Those "basic" species evolved into other species. So humans and chimpanzees are descended from a common primate ancestor Humans decended from a common ancestor, one of which evolved to the chimps and the other to humans. So we are therefore the 5th ape. All living things share a universal common ancestor as we are the products of evolution by natural selection. And there are skeletal remains to prove it.
What evidence is there that humans did NOT descend from chimpanzees?
There has NEVER been a scientific claim that humans are descendants of chimpanzees!However there are multiple clear sources of evidence that humans and chimpanzees have a common ancestral species roughly 3 million years ago. At that time neither humans or chimpanzees existed.
What kind of evidence shows that chimpanzees are the closest living relatives of humans?
Genetic evidence, specifically DNA analysis, has shown that chimpanzees share approximately 98% of their DNA with humans, making them our closest living relatives. Additionally, similarities in behavior, social structures, and anatomy between humans and chimpanzees further support this close evolutionary relationship.
Who are the ancestors of chimpanzees?
Chimpanzees share a common ancestor with humans, which lived around 6-8 million years ago. This common ancestor is believed to be a species of chimpanzee-like ape that gave rise to both modern humans and modern chimpanzees.
Are chimpanzees and gorillas homo sapiens?
No. Humans, Chimpanzees and gorillas are all primates....but homo sapiens were the first modern human species.
Which of these is not an idea put forth by evolutionary biologists?
Evolutionary biologists do not believe humans descended from apes.
How did humans and chimps split?
It is believed by biologists that humans and chimpanzees are both the descendants of some earlier primate species. The process by which new species evolve has been described at length by Charles Darwin and subsequent evolutionary biologists such as Richard Dawkins, Stephen Gould, etc. Random variations lead in some cases to traits that allow a better exploitation of some ecological niche. Chimpanzees have their specialty and we have ours.

Which of these is not an idea put forth by evolutionary biologists aChanges in the genetic code lead to changes in the diversity of life. bHumans are descended from apes.?
Option b is not an idea put forth by evolutionary biologists. Rather, the correct statement would be: Humans and apes share a common ancestor.
Do chimpanzees sleep?
Chimpanzees sleep because they are just like humans. They are closer to humans than any other animal!!
What is the difference between primates and chimpanzees?
All chimpanzees are primates but not all primates are chimpanzees. Humans, for instance, are primates.
Are chimpanzee's apes or monkeys?
chimpanzees are monkeys no, chimpanzees are apes and not monkeys
What does the principle of common descent imply about humans?
Apes and humans descended from the same common ancestor.
What is the extent of genetic similarity between humans and chimpanzees?
Humans and chimpanzees share about 98.7 of their DNA, making them very genetically similar.
What evidence is there that humans did NOT descend from chimpanzees?
There has NEVER been a scientific claim that humans are descendants of chimpanzees!However there are multiple clear sources of evidence that humans and chimpanzees have a common ancestral species roughly 3 million years ago. At that time neither humans or chimpanzees existed.
How close are humans genetically to chimpanzees?
Humans are about 98-99 genetically similar to chimpanzees, making them our closest living relatives in the animal kingdom.
What animal has DNA that is closest to humans?
Chimpanzees have DNA that is closest to humans.
