What do humans and animals have in common?

Humans and animals are similar in that they are also metabolizing.

The difference between humans and animals:

1, different definitions:

Animals are a large class of creatures in nature, as opposed to plants. Most of them feed on organic matter, with nerves, feelings and exercise.

China ancient history books defined people as animals, which can be used as a mirror of introspection. People can be defined from biological, spiritual and cultural levels, or a combination of these levels. Man is defined as a creature who can use language, has complex social organization and scientific and technological development, especially can establish groups and institutions to achieve mutual support and help.

2. The ability of food cooking is different.

Animals can't synthesize inorganic substances into organic substances, but can only eat organic substances. An edible living body composed of cells, with nucleus, no cell wall, mobility and energy matrix.

Humans want to understand and transform the environment and try to explain natural phenomena with philosophy, art, science, mythology and religion. Although humans are not the only species that use tools, they are the only known species that can use fire, clothes, cooking food and other advanced technologies.

3. Different behaviors:

From the behavioral point of view, human beings are characterized by knowing how to use language, having various complex mutual social organizations and being fond of developing complex science and technology. These behavioral differences also lead to different beliefs, legends, rituals, values and social norms in different cultures.

Animals have all kinds of behaviors, which can be regarded as animals' responses to stimuli. Behaviorism is the science of studying animal behavior. The famous behavior theory is the instinctive theory put forward by Connard Lorenz.

Most animals are active. They can move spontaneously and independently. Most animals are consumers, and they depend on other organisms (such as plants) for food. However, a small number of animals belong to the Qing Dynasty-they feed on dead organisms (organic matter) such as earthworms.
