How are we similar? How are we different?

Ape Family Tree What about our relation to Apes? ?

Questions to consider: When did we evolve? Where did we come from? How did we evolve? What did we evolve from?

What is a Hominid? You are a hominid just like the species below. Hominid – is a bipedal primate
