Chapter 13, Problem 14WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether the chimps are humans or that humans with different alleles are different species and to discuss the explanation that fits into this matter.
Concept Introduction:
The primates have one common ancestor and all the different types of primate have evolved from the same descent line. The animals, such as closely related extinct species of humans, Asian and African apes, humans, and chimpanzees are included in the hominoids.
