Are monkeys the ancestors of man, are monkeys and humans the same ancestor

Summary. No. It is an ancient ape. Darwin's "Theory of Evolution" never said that the ancestors of humans were monkeys, but only put forward an assumption that "humans, monkeys, and apes, should have a common or similar ancestor."

No. It is an ancient ape. Darwin's "Theory of Evolution" never said that the ancestor of man was a monkey, but only put forward an hypothesis, "Humans, monkeys, apes, and apes should have a common or similar ancestral model."

The ancestors of humans were neither monkeys nor orangutans. Before the publication of On the Origin of Species, the ideological basis of academia was Plato's theory. According to Plato, the world of filial piety is made up of the idea of the absolute that never changes.

The many phenomena seen by human beings are only shadows of ideas, and ideas are unchanging. The stone will always be the stone to accompany the head, and the lion will always be the lion.

The origin of human beings refers to the origin of the historical development of human beings, and how human beings originated has always been debated.

Summary. Hello, apes and monkeys are the same ancestor, monkeys, apes, and humans were originally the same ancestor, and first the monkeys were separated from this general evolutionary tree, leaving the general family of people. Then the ancestors of the gibbon species separated away, leaving behind the family Homo.

Then the ancestors of the orangutans separated and left behind the subfamily Homo. And in the subfamily of humans, in addition to gorillas, chimpanzees, and bonobos, the rest are the ancestors of human beings

Hello, I've seen your question Ha Now I'm manually replying to the content of the letter for you, but it takes a little time, please wait for Tan Zhenxia, thank you.

Hello, apes and monkeys are of the same ancestor, monkeys, apes, and human states were originally the same ancestors, first the monkeys separated from this general evolutionary tree, leaving the general book of people under the family of Phoko. Then the ancestors of the gibbon species separated away, leaving behind the family Homo. Then the ancestors of the orangutans separated and left behind the subfamily Homo.

And in the subfamily of humans, in addition to gorillas, chimpanzees, and bonobos, the rest are the ancestors of human beings

The ancestor of the monkey was the Asian Derlot's monkey, found in the Hengdong region of Hunan Province, China, and based on scattered teeth and skull fragments, it can be seen that the Asian Der's Trek's Monkey has very large eye sockets, and has two rows of extremely small teeth, and it has a larger hole under the eye socket of the skull, which also indicates that it has extremely developed tentacles.

As the ancestor of monkeys, the Asian monkey also has similar living habits to modern monkeys, for example, it mainly lives on trees, although it evolved from insectivores, it still eats more plants, but most of them are sweet fruits, and there are not many insects. However, it was not as large as a modern monkey, and its skull was less than a centimeter, so it is estimated that its body may be less than 1 meter, and its weight is only 28 grams.

Evolutionary history of monkeys

Monkeys belong to primates, the oldest primates evolved from insectivores, the earliest primates are the same as modern tree shrews, its snout is particularly prominent, the tail is extremely slender, it looks very similar to modern squirrels, but the tail is relatively thin, lives in the tree for a long time, mainly eats some insects and plants, and likes to eat fruits in the sedan chair.

At the beginning of the Cenozoic, it began to gradually differentiate into more classifications, mainly divided into two evolutionary branches, one is the protomonkey suborder, mainly including lemurs, slow loris, etc., and the other is the ape-like suborder, including humans, apes, modern monkeys and archemorphic monkeys, among which the archemorphic monkeys belong to the most primitive ape-like suborder, and the Asian De's monkey is the oldest one of the archetypal monkeys, so it is also concluded that the De's monkey is the ancestor of the monkey.

1. The primate is a unit of classification including human beings, and the reason why it is called primates is because human beings regard themselves as the highest product of evolutionary history, and believe that human beings are at the top of the biological evolutionary ladder, the chief of all souls, and the ruler of the world. However, primates originate directly from the primitive insectivorous ancestors, and from the evolutionary tree of mammals as a whole, primates are an earlier branch.

2. Since the earliest primates evolved from insectivores, they should have similarities with some insectivores. The tree shrew, feather-tailed tree shrew, and their relatives living in Asia today are morphologically comparable to the earliest primates. The tree shrew is a small mammal the size of a squirrel, with its head sticking out forward, its snout long, and its long tail trailing behind it.

They are taxonomically insectivorous, but actually have more fruits than insects in their food**.

3. In the early Cenozoic, primates have developed in different directions from their tree shrew-like ancestors, giving rise to various branches. One is represented by lemurs and slow loris, known as the protomonkey suborder; The other is represented by tarsiers and subsequent monkeys, apes, and humans, and is known as the ape suborder. Tarsiers occupy the most primitive position in the suborder of apes, while Der's monkeys are the most primitive type of tarsiers.

Suffice it to say, the Tak's monkey is supposed to be the ancestor of the monkey.

4. The 55 million-year-old Asian Eocene Eocene Deschaeus fossils found in Hengdong, Hunan, China, have nearly complete skulls and upper and lower teeth, while the previous fossils found in North America and Europe are only scattered teeth and broken jaws.

5. The analysis of morphology and phylogenetic taxonomy proves that the Asian De's monkey is the most primitive of all the six known species of De's monkey, and it is also the oldest primate found so far. Weighing only about 28 grams, the Asian Derrick's monkey is no more than a centimeter long, and the monkey is no bigger than a fist, much smaller than all the primates living in the world today. It has two rows of tiny teeth and relatively large orbits, and a large infraorbital foramen for the trigeminal nerve to pass through, implying the presence of more developed tentacles.

According to the excavated fossils, the Hengyang Basin in Hunan Province in the early Eocene was a huge lake, and the De's monkey lived in the jungle near the lake and fed on insects.
