How are mussels related to humans?
Mussels and humans are not closely related at all. Mussels are classified in the Mollusca phylum, while humans occupy the Chordata phylum.
What is the 3 closest animals to humans alive?
The most closely related extant animals to humans are chimpanzees and bonobos. These are equally closely related to us, as they share a common ancestor together more recently (~1 million years ago) than they share a common ancestor with humans (~6-7 million years ago). The various gorilla species are the next most closely related to humans, sharing a common ancestor with humans, chimps and bonobos ~10-12 million years ago.
Can a human and cat have babies together?

Is the DNA of humans more similar to the DNA of birds or apes?
Humans are more closely related to apes. In 2012 scientists completed the genome of the bonobo, an African ape. When added to the genomes that have already been completed for orangutans, gorillas and chimpanzees we now have a complete DNA catalogue of the great apes. The studies show that humans are most closely related to bonobos and chimpanzees. The three are more closely related to each other than any is to gorillas.
