Human Nature Harlow, so out of touch with normal human nature himself, shed so much light on the subject. Being an odd boy infused with drama went into so much detail in explaining our human nature using monkeys, an animal that is not human. Answers born from a paradox.

They could attach emotionally to just about anything, but the lack of connection with something living limited their social level. Monkeys

to grow. Most cells obtain energy through a complex series of biochemical reactions termed metabolism. Cells metabolize organic compounds (proteins, fats, and carbohydrates) in food and capture the energy stored in chemical bonds by forming high-energy bonds in adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Most microbes are heterotrophs, which require an organic source of energy. Some microbes and plants, the autotrophs, do not need to extract energy from organic compounds. Photosynthetic autotrophs obtain
