Question

These two images show the evolutionary relationship between humans and chimpanzees. Which chart more accurately depicts the process of evolution? Explain your response.

Answer 1

Answer:

Chimpanzees are genetically closest to humans, and in fact, chimpanzees share about 98.6% of our DNA. We share more of our DNA with chimpanzees than with monkeys or other groups, or even with other great apes! We also both play, have complex emotions and intelligence, and a very similar physical makeup.

Answer 2

Answer:

Image 2 shows how new species evolve from existing species during evolution. A new species does not replace an ancestral species as soon as it evolves. The ancestral species may continue to survive, or it may eventually become extinct. So, the second image depicts the process of evolution accurately. Image 1 suggests that primates evolved directly into humans, which is not accurate.
