Summary

"Humans and chimpanzees have a lot in common, in fact, 96 percent of our DNA is similar to our chimpanzee relatives. What else do we have in common with other members of the animal kingdom? Readers will learn fascinating facts about human and animal bodies as they complete awesome hands-on experiments. They'll develop Next Generation Science Standards skills, such as asking testable questions. The scientific method is made crystal-clear, through a succession of boxes that prompt readers to Ask, Test, Observe, and Measure. Helpful hints, materials lists, stunning photographs, and fast fact boxes keep readers on a roll. Inspiring 'What's Next?' sections encourage readers to continue exploring fascinating topics."-- From publisher's website
