Resilient Features Which Humans Inherited from Common Ancestors with Great Apes and Strengthened

Abstract

Human beings have spread their habitat more vastly than any other primates out of 450 species. Rainforests being their origin, how were human beings able to widely distribute themselves to such diverse environments? The answer to this question lies in the history of evolution -- the ability to adapt to new environments by evolving the features inherited from primate ancestors. This chapter with unveil the characteristics that human beings have inherited from the apes and analyze the background and processes of transformation. What must be highlighted is the development of human beings' sympathetic emotion and the formation of a multilayered society of family and community, an evolution of across 7 million years. This is how the biological basis of human resilience becomes to be understood.
