The chimpanzee belongs to the species Pan troglodytes. What is the genus of this species?

1.2.1 State that organisms can be classified into groups by the features that they share

1.2.2 Define species as a group of organisms that can reproduce to produce fertile offspring

1.2.3 Define and describe the binomial system of naming species as an internationally agreed system in which the scientific name of an organism is made up of two parts showing the genus and species

1.2.4 Define and describe the binomial system of naming species as an internationally agreed system in which the scientific name of an organism is made up of two parts showing the genus and species

1.2.5 Explain that classification systems aim to reflect evolutionary relationships

1.2.6 Explain that classification is traditionally based on studies of morphology and anatomy

1.2.7 Explain that the sequences of bases in DNA and of amino acids in proteins are used as a more accurate means of classification

1.2.8 Explain that organisms which share a more recent ancestor (are more closely related) have base sequences in DNA that are more similar than those that share only a distant ancestor
