What are the major differences between modern humans and apes?

Question

What evidence is present in the fossil and archaeological records for when and how these arose?

Answer 1

You mean there is a difference?

Answer 2

Humans and apes share the same 92 genes, so there is an 8 gene difference between modern humans and the great apes.

Answer 3

we use a fork... well some of us do at least

Answer 4

no "Major" differences.

We share most of the same DNA.

Answer 5

I don't know where this "92 gene" theory came about. Maybe try 52 genes.

   And this is so repetitive, there's no scientific evidence that there's a relationship between apes and man. The relationship is Chimpanzees and man.

Answer 6

Do not forget that humans are apes.

Answer 7

Humans are Apes, so unless you were to be more specific and ask for a comparrison between Humans and one of are ape cousins, say Chimpanzees or Bonobos for instance, then the question is not answerable.  Your question is like asking "what are the major differences between Orcas and Whales?"

Answer 8

Read the book "Instant Origins."  Very detailed and interesting.
