What did god do in the seven days he created the world?
Whether God created the world in six days, or even whether God created the world at all, depends on what you wish to believe. The first creation story in Genesis (verses 1:1-2:4a) describe a six-day creation, although the earth is pre-existing. The second creation story in Genesis (verses 2:4b-25) does not require creation to have taken six days, although pious readers, believing that the text cannot contain contradictions, ignore the major disjunctions between the two creation stories and tend to treat the second story as the fuller, more detailed account of the creation of man (and woman) that the first story simply reported.

Who was the ape researcher who was murdered?
Diane Fossey was discovered murdered in the bedroom of her cabin in Virunga Mountains, Rwanda on December 27, 1985. The last entry in her diary read:"When you realize the value of all life, you dwell less on what is past and concentrate more on the preservation of the future"
Fossey's skull had been split by a machete, a tool widely used by poachers, which she had confiscated from a poacher years earlier and hung as a decoration on the wall of her living room adjacent to her bedroom. Fossey was found dead beside her bed, with her handgun beside her and her own hair pulled out and in her hand. She was in the act of loading her weapon, but picked the wrong type of ammunition during the struggle. The cabin showed signs of a struggle as there was broken glass on the floor and tables along with other furniture overturned. All Fossey's valuables were still in the cabin - thousands of dollars in cash, travelers' checks, and photo equipment remained untouched. She was 2 metres (7 ft) away from a hole cut in the wall of the cabin on the day of her murder.
Fossey is buried at Karisoke,in a site that she herself had constructed for her dead gorilla friends. She was buried in the gorilla graveyard next to Digit, and near many gorillas killed by poachers. Memorial services were also held in New York, Washington, and California.
Yes, they are. Other primates include lemurs, monkeys, apes, and humans. Yes, chimps are primates because of their characteristics such as forward facing eyes and nails instead of claws. They are of group Anthropoid and are even further dived in to the group Pongid (or great apes). They are like this because they are closely related to us in genetic material.

Why are dinosaurs eggs so big?
In order to propagate the species, most dinosaurs had to lay multiple eggs. They did this to make sure at least some of their babies survived predators and weather events.
Did gorillas evolve from humans?
Humans did not evolve from chimpanzees. Humans share a common ancestor with modern African apes, like gorillas and chimpanzees. Scientists believe this common ancestor existed 5 to 8 million years ago. Shortly thereafter, the species diverged into two separate lineages. One of these lineages ultimately evolved into gorillas and chimps, and the other evolved into early human ancestors called hominids.
