If humans evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?

Biology

Alina [70]2 years ago
8 0

Firstly, humans did not evolve from monkeys. Instead, monkeys and humans share a common ancestor from which both evolved around 25 million years ago. This evolutionary relationship is supported both by the fossil record and DNA analysis. A 2007 study showed that humans and rhesus monkeys share about 93% of their DNA.

faust18 [17]

The correct answer is A. Lemurs

Explanation:

In biology, a primate is a taxonomic order of mammals that originated around 85 million years ago as animals that lived in trees and derived into multiple species including lemurs, humans, apes, monkeys, gorillas, etc. Additionally, primates as a taxonomic order divide into two suborders prosimians and anthropoids. The first group of primates is mostly nocturnal, small and also they have a smaller brain, this includes primates such as lemurs and tarsiers. On the other hand, anthropoids have a bigger brain and size and also have more advanced cognitive abilities this includes gorillas, monkeys, apes, and even humans.

ALL BUT one product of the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis is utilized in the light independent reaction. That is
Lesechka [4]

Answer: Oxygen

Explanation: Photosynthesis is a process by which plants use carbon dioxide, water and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen.

Photosynthetic reactions are divided into two phases: 1). light dependent reactions and 2). light independent reactions.

1) In light dependent reactions, chlorophyll and other light absorbing pigments absorb light energy and conserve it as ATP and NADPH with the simultaneous liberation of oxygen. This reaction occurs only when plants are illuminated. In light reactions, light energy is used to split water molecules into hydrogen ions and oxygen, the hydrogen ions produced are transferred to NADP+ to form NADPH, ATP is also produced in light dependent reactions.

2) In light independent reactions, ATP and NADPH produced in the light dependent reactions are used to drive the light independent reactions in which ATP and NADPH are used to reduce CO2 to form trioses, starch, sucrose and other products derived from them.
