Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the definitions of each term: Hominins, Anthropoids, Hominids, and Primates.
Hominins refer specifically to the group consisting of modern humans, extinct human species, and all our immediate ancestors.
Anthropoids include a broader group of primates, such as monkeys, apes, and humans, but not specifically focusing on human ancestors.
Hominids encompass a larger group that includes all great apes and humans, not just immediate human ancestors.
Primates is an even broader category that includes all species of lemurs, monkeys, apes, and humans, without focusing on human ancestry.
