Question

Differentiate between apes and man concerning the following characteristics:
A. Posture
B. Cranium
C. Brow ridges
D. Locomotion

Answer 1

The organisms such as the humans, gorillas, chimpanzees, orangutans, and the extinct ancestors acid to form a family of organisms called the Hominidae. However, both the species of Apes and men both belong to the superfamily Hominidae. It is the only thing that Apes are native to areas like Africa and Southeast Asia. We can say that Apes are the sisters of Old-World monkeys. One can say that the hominids or great apes, and the gibbons or lesser apes are the two branches of the Hominoidea superfamily. The results of many recent types of research state that the humans are near related to the apes. They stated this by judging from the anatomy and genetic comparisons.

Complete answer:

Characteristics	Apes	Man
Posture	They have a semi-erect posture.	They have a fully erect posture.
Cranium	Have flattened cranium with cranial capacity under the 650-centimetre cube.	Have rounded cranium with a cranial capacity of 1450 centimetre cube.
Brow ridges	Have a prominent brow ridge.	Have an inconspicuous brow ridge.
Locomotion	Apes locomote semi-erect on the outer edges of the feet and knuckles of hands and soles do not lie flatly on the ground.	Man locomotives fully erect on the soles of feet which lie flat on the ground while locomotion.

Additional Information:
Apes have narrow pelvic girdles whereas mam has broad and flattened pelvic girdles.
-Apes lack chin whereas chin is prominent in men.
-Apes has more massive jaws, and man has small jaws.
-The dental arch in apes is V-shaped, and in man, it is crescent-shaped.
-Apes have arms longer than legs whereas man has arms shorter than the legs.

Note:
Humans, gorillas, chimpanzees, orangutans, and the extinct ancestors form a family of organisms called the Hominidae. Hominoidea superfamily has two branches: the hominids or great apes, and the gibbons or lesser apes. Researchers by studies reveal that men are most closely related to apes, judging from the anatomy and genetic comparisons. Apes lack chin whereas chin is prominent in man. Although apes and men are most close to each other, still there are many differences in their anatomy and morphology.
