Premium Human Hominidae Chimpanzee
Chimpanzees are perhaps one of the closest living creatures to humans in the way they live and their basic genetic makeup. Chimpanzees are short but stocky prime mates with more knowledge then nearly every land animal on earth. They are so intelligent they realize the benefits of simple tools such as sticks and stones. Their intelligence even allows them to communicate bodily and verbally‚ although no real language is recognized in chimpanzees or any animal species with the exception of humans. Chimpanzees

SHOULD ENDANGERED SPECIES CHIMPS USED FOR RESEARCH PURPOSE? Along the years‚ chimps are the most used animal in world of science apart from other animals such as rabbits‚ mice and guinea pig for research purpose. In recent years‚ the general public‚ lawmakers and scientists have expressed increasing discomfort over the use of chimpanzees in biomedical research. Today it would be considered morally unacceptable to carry out many of the experiments that were done on them in the recent past. Some

Rights for Great Apes I support scientists researching on and experimenting with great apes. Since scientists don’t want to jeopardize the lives of humans‚ they test on apes. If they were not testing apes‚ then they would be testing other animals which other people would also fight against. Scientists perform tests on these apes for one very important reason‚ “98.4 percent of the DNA in chimpanzees (and 97.7 percent of the DNA in gorillas) is identical to the DNA of human beings.” This proves

These are the ten comparisons number of species‚ DNA‚ brain size‚ sociability‚ language and facial expressions‚ diet‚ sex‚ walking upright‚ eye and the tools used. Humans and both chimpanzee species evolved from a common ancestor‚ possibly sahelanthropus tchadensis‚ between five and seven million years ago. Only fossils of this ancestor remain. Chimpanzees and Humans share 99% the same DNA. With the genetic comparison

If the single grouping‚ Hominidae‚ is used‚ the separate human line in the hominid family is distinguished by being placed in a subfamily‚ Homininae‚ whose members are then called homininesthe practice that is followed in this article. An examination of the fossil record of the hominines reveals several biological and behavioral trends characteristic of the hominine subfamily. Bipedalism Two-legged
