1. What is not a true statement to describe primates?
a. Charles Darwin was the first to put humans in the order
Primates, along with species such as apes, monkeys, and lemurs.
b. The primate clade originated at the end of the Cretaceous
period.
c. Within the primate clade, the closest living relatives of
humans are chimpanzees and other apes.
2. Humans spread out of Africa and across the rest of Earth
starting about 60,000 years ago. As they did so, species that are
commensals and parasites on humans spread with them. What
geographic patterns might you expect to see in the genetic
variation of those species?
d. Independent lines of evidence from morphology and DNA confirm
that humans are primates.
