How does the DNA of a chimp compare to the DNA of a human?

Chimps have one less chromosome than humans. that is why if we try to interbreed we could never create offspring...well only in rare cases... but our offspring would have down syndrome... or something of that extent.

According to the fossil record it is not correct to say that humans evolved from chimpanzees?

Humans and chimpanzees, as well as all other animals, have been evolving over immense passages of time. Humans and chimpanzees share a common ancestor and since the time of that ancestor both primates have evolved for the same length of time. To our eyes the ancestor would have been similar to a chimpanzee but only because it would have been hairier and smaller than us.


What evidence do these similar structures provide in support of evolution?

Comparative DNA samples from chimpanzees and humans show very well the concept of evolutionary common ancestry. Aside from that, the differences in DNA among organisms, especially at certain loci, show how long two, or more, organisms shared common ancestry.


What animals are humans closely relatated to?

Is a person's DNA likely to be more similar to the DNA of his or her biological parents or to the DNA of one of her s cousins?

I feel like this question is going to go to the parents because the parents gave the child life, so that inquires that the sperm has the child's DNA, and the mother holds the child in her body for 9 months. So, I say that the child's DNA is more similar to its biological parent's DNA.
