Language is very important and diverse. Communication is necessary for every living thing‚ yet we all communicate in very different ways. The human language is by far the most complex form of communication. We are the only living thing able to speak words and understand a wide range of vocabulary. The human language has a large advantage over that of parrots and primates because of our wide vocal range and complex written language. While parrots have the ability to mimic human words ‚they have no

How Intelligent are Chimpanzees Compared to Humans? A chimpanzee’s brain size is less than ⅓ of a human’s brain size‚ yet they are still so intelligent when compared to humans. Chimpanzees don’t haven’t invented computers or iphones‚ but just a small it of research shows that chimps are actually quite intelligent. Jane Goodall is someone who has spent lots of time with chimpanzees‚ and she herself has experienced the intelligence of chimps. Chimpanzees are our closest relatives‚ sharing lots of

Pan troglodytes‚ Pan Paniscus‚ and Homo sapiens or more commonly referred to as Chimpanzees‚ Bonobos‚ and Humans have unbelievably similar biological traits that one could invoke philosophical reflection of our origin and evolution. Highly intelligent‚ social‚ vocalized‚ animals that share a taxonomic group with Homo sapiens: a tribe. But where do we draw the line? How do we define these primates as different species even at a 98% gene proportion? Are these creatures analogous to each other to the

After having read several short science fiction stories‚ two certain stories really stood out to me‚ those two short stories were‚" Flowers for Algernon”‚ written by Daniel Keyes and‚ “The Second Variety”‚ written by Phillip K. Dick. I found that both of those texts focused on the central theme of man playing God‚ and both of them had their own approach of showing what happens when man plays God. Even though the outcomes of both stories are very different they both reach the same central idea of

Apes are one of the most sophisticated creatures on the face of the Earth. From their advanced means of communication to their ability to craft a variety of useful tools‚ these attributes not only let them thrive in a prehistoric humanistic way‚ but also rule the animal kingdom. Despite their rich intellect the general public see apes as nothing more than feeble-minded‚ rabid beasts‚ some not even able to distinguish the former from monkeys‚ who are distinctly different species. Scientists‚ on the

It has long been wondered by scientists just how the giraffe evolved to have its long neck. The giraffe‚ world’s tallest mammal‚ was thought to have developed its neck to enable it to find food in higher places‚ and that it made it easier for the animal to fight predators. A new study‚ however‚ proves that the evolution of the giraffe’s neck came in several stages. First‚ the neck vertebrae reached into the mammal’s neck‚ and millions of years later‚ the vertebrae extended to the tail. This is the

Are human workers doomed to be completely replaced by robots ? Robots are fascinating. Everyone agrees to say that artificial intelligence and robotics are one of man’s greatest achievements in science during the last century. However‚ as their abilities increase this creation of man might make him useless. That is indeed a burning question that we are going to analyze : are robots going to take our place at work ? This might seem almost ridiculous because even nowadays robots look very limited

According to Pamela S. Soltisand Douglas E. Soltis‚the fossil record that they found out does not clarify basal groups within the angiosperms. However‚ it clearly identifies a number of form and structure of diverse lineages early in angiosperm evolution. The earliest known large fossil confidently identified as an angiosperm‚ Archaefructusliaoningensis‚ is dated to about 125 millionyears or also known as Cretaceous period‚ whereas pollen considered to be of angiosperm origin takes the fossil record

Finding of Lucy Lucy was a 3.2 million old Australopithecus Afarensis skeleton to ever be found. She was found in Ethiopia on November 24 1974. They first spotted the forearm bone and then they found some other parts of her body as well. Only 40% of her bones have been found yet. Lucy’s discovery is very important to the world because it shows everybody how their ancestors might have looked in the past. It is also important because it helps us understand our past and where we came from
