In what plant lineage(s) do you see seed production? The gymnosperms and angiosperms 13. Compare the skeleton of an ape and human. Lots of differences- a few Humans are adapted to bipedalism and have an S-shaped curve to their backbone so that our weight is centered over our hips, feet. Apes have longer arms and shorter legs compared to humans because they “walk” on their knuckles. Our backbone enters the skull at its base; apes’ backbones enter at the back of the skull. We have an arched foot to help support our body weight when walking erect. Etc.
