Answer 1

Answer:

Evolutionary speaking, devoting energy or resources to dead members of your species doesn’t seem very worthwhile. But it’s done, to a limited extent by chimpanzees, our closest primate relatives. Chimp mothers have been observed carrying their dead infants for weeks. Some researchers contend this stems from the intensity of their mother-infant bond, while others propose it’s a “better to be safe than sorry” strategy, to avoid abandoning seemingly dead, but actually living offspring. However, overall, chimp treatment of dead conspecifics is highly variable, ranging from cannibalism to care.
