This animal walks on two legs.
A
gorilla
B
monkey
C
lion
D
giraffe
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Gorilla. Gorillas primarily move on all fours, but they also stand and walk on two legs. Habitually, gorillas are quadrupeds, meaning they move on all fours. But these primates can also stand and walk on two legs much like humans.

Detailed explanation-2: -Humans, birds and (occasionally) apes walk bipedally. Humans, birds, many lizards and (at their highest speeds) cockroaches run bipedally. Kangaroos, some rodents and many birds hop bipedally, and jerboas and crows use a skipping gait. This paper deals only with walking and running bipeds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Gorillas use the form of walking on all fours with the fingers on the hands of the front two limbs folded inward. A gorilla’s forearm and wrist bones lock together to be able to sustain the weight of the animal and create a strong supporting structure.

Detailed explanation-4: -A 27-year-old gorilla in England named Ambam made headlines in 2011 for his own human-like strut. Both Louis and Ambam walk upright to more effectively gather food, which scientists say may be one of the reasons humans evolved to walk on two feet.
