Is my answers correct?

The diagram below is a evolutionary tree indicating the relationship among different primate species. On this tree, the labeled horizontal lines indicate the evolutionary history of some unnamed primate traits. Use the diagram to answer Rhesus monkeys and gorillas have stereoscopic vision, which allows them to better visually gauge distances while hunting and moving through tree canopies. Which other primate species on the evolutionary tree likely possess stereoscopic vision as well? Rhesus monkeys are the last common ancestor of gibbons, gorillas, and humans. Both orangutans and gorillas possess Trait E. Gibbons are more closely related to humans than to rhesus monkeys.

8. False

The last common ancestor is not Rhesus monkey

9. False

The presence of trait E is only shown in case of Orangutans

10. True

From the evolutionary tree it is clear that gibbons are more closely related to humans as comparesd to rhesus monkey.
