What percent of genes are found common between chimps and humans?
The common quote is 98.5% genetic relatedness between humans and chimps. This is based on the shear number of similar genes. However, this number does not take into account gene duplication and the specific proteins produced by these similar genes. If these are accounted for, the number is more like 94%. Despite this, chimps are still our closest living relatives.
See the links below for the more accurate figure.
The features of the wildlife protection act of 1972 was enacted in India to protect the various endangered animals and plants. In 1972, National parks and reserves were opened to protect these endangered species.

When did Lucy the hominid live?

Why do authors use the 5 senses?
Well it is important to use all 5 senses such as hear feel touch smell and sight because without them you could not do a lot. For example if we had no sight we would be blind. Or if we had no smell then our noses would have no use. Or if we had no feel than our hands would have no use same as touch. And no hear than how would we use our ears for? And that is why all 5 senses are like so important.
add And we have a lot more senses other that the oft-quoted five. We have two or three different pain senses, we have balance, binocular vision, colour perception - and so on. Perhaps you could find some more. (they are there.)
How did HIV spread from chimpanzees to humans?
Due to the close genetic relationship between nonhuman primates and humans, disease causing organisms are easily exchanged between them. The pathogens that can be passed from nonhuman primates to humans and vice versa include bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses.
They may be spread by bites, scratches, handling animals or their tissues, airborne transmission of aerosols and droplets, ingestion, and arthropod vectors. Often the nonhuman primate carries and transmits disease without any visible signs. Persons in contact with these animals must always be aware of the potential risks involved.
This is especially true when animals are under stress, such as those that have been recently shipped or introduced into a new situation, or have developed a recent illness. As with many communicable diseases, immunocompromised persons are at greatest risk for infection or serious consequences from such infections.
They are omnivores (eat both plant and animal material) and are fed a variety of foods to fulfill their dietary requirements. You could expect various fruits and meat for sure.

What other animals live in the same habitat as chimpanzees?
heyy well the answer to this question will have to be Gorillas ; Bonobos ; and oranqatans!(: happy to Help and pleasee keep all the Chimpanzee's Alivee! :D
Chimps are approximately 98-99% vegetarian. The remaining 1-2% of their diet consists of bugs, especially termites. Chimps have been observed on rare occasions to kill and consume the flesh of bush pigs, other monkeys, and even other Chimps, after killing them in territorial raids. Why Chimps do this is unknown, but animal flesh is not a staple food source in the Chimpanzee diet.
What is the name of the sac containing the male gonads?
The sac containing the male gonads is called the scrotum. This contains the testes, the penis, and several other organs that are needed for reproduction.
your question does not make any sense but many animals are adapted to their environment which means that they will find a lot easier to survive
:)
How are human and animal skeletons similar?
They both protect parts of other systems and both help them stand up and move.
Which state in the us has the most nuclear plants?

What are endotherms or cold- blooded animals?
Cold-blooded animals (ectotherms) are animals that do not have an internal mechanism for regulating body temperature, relying instead on solar energy captured by the environment. Reptiles, amphibians and fish are examples of cold-blooded animals.
Why are there warm and cold blooded animals?
warm blooded animals create their own body heat, expending extra energy to do so.
cold blood animal rely on the the ambient temperate of surrounds for their body temperature, and expend less energy, but also get sluggish when things are cool to cold.
What country did Jane Goodall work in?
she worked as a secretery when she was younger but know she works in Africa and she is 75 yrs old
What was the first animal that russia sent into space?
Laika, the first mammal to orbit the Earth, died a few hours after launch from stress and overheating, probably due to a malfunction in the temperature control system.
How do endothermic animals maintain their internal body temperature?
They absorb heat from external sources. Reptiles are endothermic - they bask in direct sunlight (or under a heat-lamp in captivity) to heat their bodies to a working temperature.
