Answer:

The study of conflicts between chimpanzees is useful for understanding conflicts between human societies.

Step-by-step explanation:

The conflicts between chimpanzees are established to defend the territory or because of competitions with other animals and other primates. This type of conflict can also exist between human beings, however, the chimpanzees exhibit similar behaviors with humans and as this type of conflict is more common among them, it is easier to study them in chimpanzee societies and adapt the aggressions to conflicts between human beings.
