An ape leader is an obsolete slang term for an old maid, based on the belief that those women who remained spinsters until death were simply neglecting to multiply.
No. There is no scientific evidence to support the Aquatic Ape Hypothesis. Nor are there any scientific papers in any reputable, peer reviewed scientific journals that support this hypothesis. After the last proponent to support this hypothesis, Hardy 1960(marine biologist), the main prominent proponent of it is Elaine Morgan who is not a scientist but a screenwriter.
How does the bornean orangutan impact the energy pyramid?
the orangutan impacts the energy pyramd cuz then jaguars will go instict and the ants would eat more vegetation and then there well ne an increase of grasses and trees.
How do you capture monkey pink in ape escape 3?
Well.. heres how you do it.(PS: since i played as Yumi, I will put her name in the cheats and hints, not Kei's.)
First, transform into genie dancer and when monkey pink is near you, quickly use the net by pushing down the right analog stick. You have captured monkey pink.
PS: if you do not do this, there will be a cutscene where Yumi tries to capture monkey pink, the will fly away, still you will complete the level.
How would you describe hacking?
Generally speaking, hacking is breaking into other people's property; it is an immoral action that cannot be justified under any circumstances.
What is the scientific name for a Great Ape?
The Hominidae (anglicized Hominids, also known as great apes)
In short, the evolutionary theory teaches that Australopithecus "Southern Ape" is the first chain in the alleged human descent. The first was discovered by a South African anatomy professor named Raymond Dart, and his discovery was nicknamed the "Tuang child." By the early 1970's, his discovery was dismissed as a small, extinct ape.
well ape is like a gorilla so most scientifically it is a monkey
What are the special characteristics of orangutan to survive in its habitat?
Considering the large size of the orangutan, movement from one tree or branch to another is graceful and agile, yet slow. An orangutan seldom covers more than mile in a day (1 km). However they have a vast range in which they hunt for their food. Males may use several thousand hectares and females use several hundred. When moving on the ground they are slow and awkward appearing. Because of its arboreal lifestyle with little need to come down from the trees, the orangutan has never learned to knuckle-walk like the gorilla and chimpanzee, instead it fist walks. Staying high in the trees keeps them away from predators such as tigers and leopards.
Orangutans build two nests a day; a sparse one for a short nap and a stronger sleeping nest every night which is constructed from branches with leaves on them, 40 to 60 feet above the ground. The sleeping nest looks like a giant birds nest and on average, only takes about 5 minutes to construct. Babies and juveniles, up to about the age of 8, unless having become more independent earlier, will sleep with their mothers in her nest. Occasionally orangutans will sleep in an old nest. If it is rainy enough, they will fashion a cover to help keep them dry. It is not uncommon to see them holding a large palm frond over their head if it is raining hard.
Adult orangutans on the island of Borneo tend to be more solitary animals than those on Sumatra. They will forage and travel independent of one another and males tend to break ties with their mothers earlier than females. Social relationships are formed by individual orangutans that have regularly overlapping ranges. However that does not mean that there will be any actual social interaction between them when they meet. For example, if several orangutans (not adult males) are seeking out fruit at the same tree they will usually sit apart with little or no social interaction and will leave alone after eating.
Sumatran orangutans, on the other hand, behave more socially toward one another. Except for low-ranking adult males, they will travel together and occasionally bonds will form between low-ranking adult males, but usually male relationships are competitive. The higher degree of social interaction between Sumatran orangutans is a function of the fact that their habitat on Sumatra is more productive than that on Borneo. This productivity keeps the cost of traveling and eating together much lower and therefore the animals can benefit from the social benefits resulting from group life. Researchers point to tool using by Sumatran orangutans as a result of this group life-style.
Adult male orangutans will make a booming long call several times a day, that along with a number of possible functions, keeps subordinate males away. This call will carry over a mile through the dense forest. If by chance a subordinate male encounters an adult male, the subordinate male will be tolerated as long he keeps his distance. However if two adult males meet it will usually result in a violent and aggressive display or actual fight. Orangutans make a number of different vocalizations besides the long call. One of the most well known is the kiss squeak and grumph sound they will make when disturbed. Youngsters will whine when they need help from their mother is doing something. They also make a number of softer sounds to each other that are difficult for researchers to hear. Orangutan also break off weak branches and will throw them down to the ground when disturbed, an action that all field researchers are very familiar with.
What is your stand on the evolutionary theory that men came from apes?
It is clear and obvious than men and ape share common ancestry. The skeletal features alone are sufficient to warrant this as a likely conclusion. But when we compare blood, tissue, and chromosomes, we are inexorably left with the realization our species diverged within the past ten million years, and the fossil evidence also bears this out.
Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, whereas most other primates have 24 pairs (I'm not certain about lemurs, lorises, or tarsiers). However, it has been demonstrated that our reduced chromosome count stems from the fusion of a pair of early hominid chromosomes. We see tale-tell signs of the fusion by the presence of telomeres, repeated DNA segments near the ends of chromosomes, where the fusion occurred.
Suppose you created monkeys, and then later created men. Why would you endow each with the same defect? Monkeys and humans both share a pseudogene for expressing a protein that synthesizes ascorbic acid. In each of us the gene does not function, which is why it is called a "pseudogene." Most other species of mammals have a functioning gene, so their diets need not be rich in vitamin C to ensure their good health. We suffer scurvy if we don't get it.
We engineered mice with the human pseudogene in place of their GULO gene. These mice all developed classic symptoms of scurvy when fed diets restricted of ascorbic acid (vitamin C). This proves we correctly identified both the gene and its function.
Separate creations? What possible explanation could there be for designing the same flaw into our respective species? That makes zero sense. However, if we imagine the gene breaking and becoming fixed in an arboreal population rich in vitamin C where the missing gene would go unnoticed, common ancestry explains the presence of the gene in both populations beautifully.
Yet more evidence for common ancestry stems from comparisons of mitochondrial DNA. Mitochondria are organelles within cells that have their own DNA. These are inherited in the egg of the mother, the male sperm does not pass on its own mitochondria. We have grown cows with the mitochondria of rabbits, showing that dramatically unrelated species function just fine with foreign mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA). The mtDNA of chimps and humans is remarkably similar, again indicating our divergence was likely fairly recent in geologic time.
Did apes come from black people?
Not exactly. 'Black people' are an ethnic group of modern humans, Homo sapiens sapiens. Homo sapiens is a species of Great Apes. Therefore, you, and all other humans, regardless of ethnicity, came from apes, are apes, and produce more apes.
Do you think that apes are more closely related to old world monkeys or to new world monkeys?
Apes are more closely related to Old World Monkeys.
Large predators, such as lions, tigers, etc. are natural predators of apes, especially the smaller, older and weaker ones. But man is the main threat to apes by destroying their natural habitats, killing them for "bush meat", and hunters who shoot them for the thrill of the kill.
Do not know. This person knew nothing of evolutionary progression though. It is not a linear chain, but a bush of evolutionary progression.
Eric Schlaikjer was one of the first to draw this inaccuracy.
What do you call a group of mosquitoes?
When mosquitoes mass together in large groups, it is called a swarm.
A small slender long-armed ape of India china and southeast Asia?
turtle neck and chain captain jack sparrow
it depends how you se it.......if you meen the vowels in the word ape, then yes, mut if u mean ape as a whole vowel then no
How may success in human relations management be measured?
The successful leader creates an effective balance between people and productivity, and recognizes human relations as the key ingredient transforming organizational plans into organizational results.
Ape (the animal) is simio or mono. Ape as a description of a big uncouth person, is bruto or bruta. Ape, used affectionately (or not) in "You big ape!, is "Pedazo de bruto!" or "Animal!" Ape, the verb, as in "to ape his manerisms" is imitar. Ape, as in "to go ape" (ie crazy) is "ponerse como loco"
