It's debatable. Some say Orangutang. Others say bonobo.

There are eight extant genera of apes, with a total of twenty-four species. These are divided into two main categories, Great Apes and Lesser Apes, each of which has four genera (seventeen Lesser Ape species, seven Great Ape species).
Yes. The term means that they are similar to humans. Even the three bears from 'Goldilocks' are said to be anthropoid.
There is no specific genus that refers to all apes. Apes belong to Superfamily Hominoidea. Within Hominoidea, there are eight extant genera, four of which belong to Lesser Apes, four to Great Apes.
There are twenty-four extant species of apes. Seventeen of these are classified as Lesser Apes, seven as Great Apes. When someone mentions "apes," the automatic thought of the average person is often 'Chimpanzees, Gorillas, and Orangutans.'
Yes. Chimpanzees are one of the four groups referred to as great apes (also known as hominids), of the family Hominidae. The other members are orangutans, gorillas, and humans (and close relatives).
From Wikipedia: the family Hylobatidae consists of 4 genera and 13 species of gibbons, including the Lar Gibbon and the Siamang, collectively known as the "lesser apes" the family Hominidae consisting of orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans, collectively known as the great apes.
The four major groups of primates are prosimians (such as lemurs and tarsiers), New World monkeys (such as spider monkeys and howler monkeys), Old World monkeys (such as baboons and macaques), and apes (such as gorillas and orangutans).
Nobody can "shape shift" into another species. However, humans are one of the four genera of great apes, the other three being gorillas, orangutans, and the genus Pan (bonobos and chimpanzees). So you're already a great ape!
Humans and chimpanzees share 94% of the same DNA. By comparing certain genes of chimpanzees to those of humans, scientists can tell the approximate number of generations since humans and chimpanzees shared a common ancestor. It is believed that the ancestors of humans and chimpanzees diverged between four and six million years ago. In other words, it is support for evolution and the fact that humans evolved from great apes.
No, humans descended from ape-like ancestors. Evidence suggests that the human line split from the first gorillas around four to eight million years ago.
The first four planets found closest to the sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
