What is the scientific name for western lowland gorilla?

The scientific name for the western lowland gorilla is Gorilla gorilla gorilla.

What is the species name of a gorilla?

There are 3 species of gorilla Gorilla gorilla Gorilla beringuei

What is a western lowland gorillas niche?

The niche of western lowland gorillas involves living in the dense forests of Central Africa, where they primarily consume fruits, leaves, and stems. They play a crucial role in seed dispersal, helping maintain the diversity of plant species in the forest. Additionally, they are important prey for predators like leopards and are a symbol of the overall health and biodiversity of their habitat.

How much area would all the human in the world cover if they stood toe to toe?

Assuming an average human width of 18 inches (0.45 meters), there are approximately 7.8 billion people in the world. If everyone stood toe to toe, they would cover an area of around 3,510 square kilometers (1,355 square miles).

Is a Western Gorilla a vertebrate?

Yes, a vertebrate is anything that has a back bone. An invertebrate has no back bone.

When the air you breathe is made cleaner as a result of lobbying done by an interest group to which you do not belong you are an example?

You are benefiting from the efforts of the interest group even though you are not directly linked to it. This demonstrates how advocacy work can have widespread positive effects on society beyond just those involved in the group.

What happens to a Christian baby when it is born?

If your father is 6ft 8in how tall will you be when i am older?

It is difficult to predict your height based solely on your father's height. Genetics play a role, but environmental factors, nutrition, and other genes from your family also influence your ultimate height.

What is the genetic mechanism that may have been responsible for the base sequence changes between humans and gorillas?

Many genetic changes happened. One involved the joining of two "ape" chromosomes (they have 24 pairs of chromosomes) end to end to make human chromosome #1 (we have 23 pairs of chromosomes, but still have about the same amount of genetic material). This would have made it impossible for the "new" humans to successfully breed with their most recent prehuman ancestors, even though both peoples probably had identical appearance and lived together for several generations of both.

Are chimpanzees and gorillas homo sapiens?

No. Humans, Chimpanzees and gorillas are all primates....but homo sapiens were the first modern human species.

Are baboons and gorillas ancestors of humans?

Baboons and gorillas are not direct ancestors of humans. Humans share a common ancestor with primates like baboons and gorillas from millions of years ago, but they are not direct descendants of these species. We share a more recent common ancestor with great apes like chimpanzees and bonobos.

How are humans and apes alike?

They are not alike. The most-oft used argument - that humans and apes share 99% similar genomes, has been proven wrong. The only comparisons done so far pertain ONLY to the 1% of the genome which codes for proteins. No comparison has been done between the ENTIRE human genome and ENTIRE chimp genome. Such a huge and costly study would undoubtedly yield a very low similarity. When comparing ONLY the 1% of the genome which codes for proteins, the similarity is between 70% and 96%, depending on the study.

One reason why very few studies have been done on the NON-protein coding portion of the genome is because, for decades, many scientists assumed it was junk DNA - now we know this was completely wrong. So much for assuming. We now realize the NON-protein coding portion is responsible for many important functions such as preserving the genome itself! Also, a recent report unexpectedly found specific sequence patterns in "junk" DNA called "pyknons" which are responsible for determining when and where proteins are made. Furthermore, within this "junk DNA", the areas of greatest difference appear to involve regions which are structurally different (commonly called "rearrangements") and areas of heterochromatin (tightly packed DNA).

The protein coding portion of the human genome has approximately 50% similarity with bananas. There are several reasons why this is so: 1) All life on Earth is based on the same carbon/water system. 2) In order to eat and digest bananas, we must share genomic similarities, otherwise we wouldn't be able to eat bananas in the first place. Genomic similarity among us is required for all of us to live on earth. 3) If we ever found another organism which we DIDN'T share any genomic similarities, that organism would be from a completely different planet with a different life-sustaining system altogether.

Do moose travel in a group?

NO Not usually. If you see several at one place it could be for one of the following reasons; It is mating season, It is a mother and her offspring, or it is a common feeding area.

Why do you sneeze when you are full?

Now I can not be 100% sure but is it because when you eat, you also ingest lot's of air and like burping and farting, the air has to escap and it escapes out of your nose via a sneeze.

Could be wrong though.
