What is the order in which humans evolved?
I think you're looking for a monkey-chimp-human sort of answer. However there is not a order in which humans evolved (and are evolving). Humans are most closely related to chimpanzees, followed by gorillas and then orangutangs.Not Orangutang->Gorilla->Chimp->Human.What I am saying is that the common ancestor of chimps and humans was around more recently than the common ancestor of humans and gorillas, which was more recent than the common ancestor of orangutangs and humans.After the close relatives you get monkeys then lemurs. Followed by rodents and then the rest of the mammals.
