Davlyn: Humans and Monkeys information report

Intro-

There are many ways that monkeys and humans are the same and there we have many differences. Some sciences discovered about 7 million years ago we were monkeys then we evolved into humans.

Similarities-

Humans and monkeys have a lot of similarities. We are both mammals. So that means we are both warm blooded which means we both need to stay warm or else we can freeze to death, but other animals like snakes sharks etc are cold blooded also mammals are the only things that can sweat so we can die from overheating. Monkeys and humans also have opposable thumbs which means we can use our thumbs for tools like utensils. We both also communicate in our own languages monkeys speak in their own language and humans speak in their own. Monkeys and humans both live in family groups so they help each other and support their family. We also clean each other so when you're a baby your parents will clean you. We both have two legs, skin, fur, fingers, toes and lungs. We both go on vegetable diets, humans used to be herbivores which means we only eat vegetables, but then we evolved so now we are omnivores because we eat meat and vegetables.

Differents-

Monkeys and Humans are not completely the same, we have some differences as well. One of them is that humans have very developed brains. Monkeys are better than humans at climbing because they have different hands and they also have a tail and they also have a longer arm span. We also have different habitats. We live inside a house but monkeys live in a forest or a jungle. We both eat differently, Humans are carnivores, monkeys eat both vegetables and meat, wbut we eat our food cooked but monkeys eat it raw. We both also have different lifespans: Humans lifespan=82yrs, Apes lifespan=39yrs, Gorilla lifespan=35-40yrs, Orangutan lifespan=35-45yrs, Chimpanzee lifespan=39yrs, Baboon lifespan=35-45yrs, Spider monkey lifespan=30-40yrs

Mandrill life span=20yrs

DNA-

DNA is in your body, every living thing has it like humans, birds, dogs, cats, etc. You get your DNA from your parents but it is not exactly the same. Your DNA is made up of 4 letters A, C, T, and G. They make up your DNA, holding it all together is a double helix. A helix is a spiral thing; a double helix is two of those. You have genes in your DNA. Your DNA is in your chromosomes and your chromosomes are in your cells. You have around 100 trillion cells in your body. There are different types of cells like skin cells, muscle cells, etc. When you get cut or your skin dies your skin cells come off but your body automatically regenerates it so you will never lose your cells.

Also you have 23 pairs of chromosomes which means you have 46 in total and monkeys generally have 48 chromosomes and it has more chromosomes than humans they have 2 more than humans. Also cells hold your chromosomes, your chromosomes hold your DNA and your DNA holds your genes.
