It can be proved by DNA testings on bones. After that you can look at the teeth to find out what they ate.

Why primates went from walking as quadrapods to bipedals?

Humans are the only bipedal primates. Our ancestors a few million years back were quadrupeds. Our earliest ancestors that were bipedal were the Australopethicines.

Are baboons and gorillas ancestors of humans?

Baboons and gorillas are not direct ancestors of humans. Humans share a common ancestor with primates like baboons and gorillas from millions of years ago, but they are not direct descendants of these species. We share a more recent common ancestor with great apes like chimpanzees and bonobos.

What is theory of man?

Humans are primates. Apes, monkeys, chimpanzees, etc. are also primates.Skeletons of primates that lived millions of years ago show that the ancestors of humans have changed from rather short hunched and probably furry primates that lived in groups and used stone tools to Homo erectus to the modern human.The theory is that all primates probably had a common ancestor but due to separation of groups, environmental factors and random genetic mutations, speciation occurred and different groups of primates became increasingly different from each other. Modern primates do not look like their distant ancestors after millions of years and each species of modern primates are different from each other. The great ape is different from lemurs and humans. Humans are unique in having the ability to excavate, document and study the remains of organisms that lived millions of years ago.Just as birds had a common ancestor with dinosaurs as did, perhaps reptiles, humans had a common ancestor with other mammals.


What kind of primate are most like the first primates?

Describe at least three kinds of evidence that suggests all primates shared a common acestor?

One evidence suggesting that all primates might have come from a common ancestor is that they all act very similar. For example, human kids play with toys, and other primates such as a monkey take a stick and use it as a doll or an action figure. Another evidence is that all primates have a similar fossil structure, which can also lead to similar ancestors, or the same. Also another proof of evidence is the fact that all primates always act like each other. ok that's the answer now sent your credit card number to designator817@AOL.comm
