Humans belong to the genus Homo and chimpanzees to the genus Pan.

Humans belong to the genus Homo and chimpanzees to the genus Pan. Yet studies of primate genes show that chimpanzees and humans are more closely related to one another than each is to any other animals. In light of this result, some researchers suggest that chimpanzees should be renamed as members of the genus Homo. Discuss at least three practical, scientific, and ethical issues that might be raised by such a change in naming.
