Abstract
Human evolution is a very complicated and lengthy process. Around six million years ago, humans were still apelike creatures. However, in modern times, humans have already evolved into a species called homo sapiens. The first species which shows human traits are bipedalism; they can walk on two legs. There are about 12-15 different early human species, but not all of them lived till today. It is well known that chimpanzees and humans shared a common ancestor six to seven million years ago. Chimpanzees are genetically closest to humans; they share about 96% of Human DNA sequences [1]. However, during evolution, chimpanzees and humans diverged into two different paths and finally demonstrated other behavior and into two completely different species. Modern-day humans can develop society and show high intelligence. However, for chimpanzees, they are still at a phase where they only demonstrate animal behavior. Chimpanzees and humans developed completely different behavior not only due to the different environments they lived in, but also due to the gene differences.
