What are Homo sapiens?

Answer 1

any bipedal primate

Answer 2

A "Homo Sapiens" is one of a group of subspecies of "Modern Humans", including human beings (the only remaining subspecies of Homo Sapiens). The proper name for us as a subspecies is Homo Sapiens Sapiens (meaning Wise, Wise Man).

There was another, now long extinct, subspecies of Homo Sapiens, known as Homo Sapiens Idaltu which lived in Africa 160,000 years ago.

Early humans in Europe, known as Cro-Magnon, were also Homo Sapiens.

Key features of the anatomy of the Homo Sapiens (compared to other apes) are:

They are bipedal (walking on two legs)

That their backs are straight, not bent (Standing like this may have made tool carrying and tool-use easier.)

They have a highly developed brain which allows for language use.

Answer 3

A hominid is any member of the biological family Hominidae (the "great apes"), including the extinct and extant humans and mammals. This classification has been revised several times in the last few decades. These various revisions have led to a varied use of the word "hominid": the original meaning of Hominidae referred only to the modern meaning of Hominina, i.e. only humans and their closest relatives. The meaning of the taxon changed gradually, leading to the modern meaning of "hominid," which includes all great apes.

Hominids are also chimpanzees, orangutans and also monkeys may be but they are all with the great apes also gorillas

According to the dictionary, a hominid is "any primate of the family Hominidae, which includes modern man (Homo sapiens) and the extinct precursors of man". That means humans and close relatives of humans.
'hominid literally means 'man-like', and refers to any of several (now extinct) species that were part of the evolution of mankind.
