Members of the genus Australopithecus lived in Africa from around four to three million years ago. If the robust Australopithecines are included (now also known as Paranthropus) then Australopithecines can be considered to have existed up to around two million years ago. - Australopithecines were any of several extinct humanlike bipedal primates with relatively small brains of the genus Australopithecus that lived from 1 to 4 million years ago.
The first primates seem to have emerged about 55 million years ago.

That is debatable. Scientifically speaking, primates.
All chimpanzees are primates but not all primates are chimpanzees. Humans, for instance, are primates.
If you mean "Are all mammals primates?" then the answer is no. Primates are a type of mammal. All primates are mammals. Not all mammals are primates. For example, cats, dogs, bears, rodents... these are all mammals, but not primates.
What is an ape? We have been called the "naked ape", but is that a good description or just good publicity. More broadly, biologists classify the great apes and humans together as primates. We are primates and the first humans were therefore primates just as we are. Whether the first humans were the Adam and Eve of the Bible is a matter of faith.
No, dogs are not primates. Dogs belong to the mammalian family Canidae, while primates belong to the order Primates, which includes humans, apes, monkeys, and lemurs.
Primates
Stop acting like a bunch of primates! Aren't gorillas primates?
A group of monkeys is called a troop.Monkeys are in the taxonomic order Primates(primates), suborder Haplorhini ("dry-nosed").
Breast milk in humans and other primates.
No. Primates are a group of placental mammals, but there are many placental mammals that are not primates.
