The correct answer is: apes.
Apes are tailless anthropoid primates from Africa and Southeast Asia. There are two families of apes Hylobatidae (gibbons) and Hominidae (chimpanzees, bonobos, orangutans, gorillas, and also includes humans). Apes are different from monkeys because they have more complex brains and don’t have tails.
