Answer 1

Answer: It is still unclear if animals can show humanlike language at any level of development.

Explanation: Over the years humans have tried to understand the means through which animals communicate with themselves: we have made progress but have not totally understood some means of how animals pass information.

Animals communicate among themselves, although not upto the level of human intelligence but information is transferred.

Some primates possess a comparable higher intelligence when they communicate but it is unclear if animals can show humanlike language at any level of development.
