Answer 2

"Monkeys" is a very broad term. I'll try to make some generalizations.

Monkeys are usually found in tropical areas, however, they do inhabit grasslands, deserts, and mountains. The usual diet is fruit, vegetables, other plants, insects, and some monkeys will hunt animals(including other monkeys) for meat. Most have, if not all, have a capacity for climbing, be it trees, rocks, buildings, etc.

Some examples would be:
Baboons
Macaques
Spider monkeys
Howler Monkeys
Golden Lion Tamarans
Colobus Monkeys
Proboscis monkeys

And many, many, many more.

Answer 3

"Monkeys" are a catchall phrase for two very different groups of primates - the old world monkeys and the new world monkeys. Although they are both colloquially called monkeys, old world monkeys are more closely related to us then they are to new world monkeys. The great apes and our own ancestors descended from creatures which are thought to be very similar to modern old world monkeys. The link below provides a simple graph of the primate family tree. Old world monkeys are the smarter of the two groups, with substantially bigger brains then their new world cousins. There are over 75 species of old world monkeys including baboons, rhesus macaques, proboscis monkeys, colobus monkeys, guenons and langurs. Their diet varies species to species - most old world monkeys subsist mainly on fruits, leaves, roots and nuts, but some also eat insects and small animals (lizards, etc.), and some baboons even take down larger prey. Old world monkeys are found throughout Africa south of the Sahara, Gibralta, parts of the Middle East, throughout South Asia, including the Indonesian islands, and in Japan. Most old world monkeys live in tropical forests but some make their homes in grasslands, deserts, and even the often-freezing forests of Japan. New world monkeys are somewhat less diverse - there are over 50 species, including spider monkeys, squirrel monkeys, marmosets and tamarins. New world monkeys are found throughout the northern half of South America, Central America and the southern half of Mexico. They live almost exclusively in tropical rainforests and their diet is similar to those of the old world monkeys (except I am not aware of any new world monkeys taking down sizable prey).
