The researchers found that the Neanderthal fossil had approximately0.0078 as much 14C as found originally in the atmosphere. (a) Usingthe numbers on your graph, determine how many half-lives havepassed since the Neanderthal died. (b) Using your 14C calibration onthe x-axis, what is the approximate age of the Neanderthal fossil inyears (round off to the nearest thousand)? (c) Approximately whendid Neanderthals become extinct according to this study? (d) Theresearchers cite evidence that modern humans (H. sapiens) becameestablished in the same region as the last Neanderthals approximately 39,000–42,000 years ago. What does this suggest aboutthe overlap of Neanderthals and modern humans?

A skull of Homo Neanderthalensisis tested using carbon14. Palaeontologists are wondering about whether the Neanderthal was living at the same time as Homo sapiens, known to be living in the same area 45 000 years ago. Measurements shown the original amount of carbon-14 isotope present in the skull when Neanderthal died is only 1.56%. A) How old is the Neanderthal fossil? B) Could this Neanderthal have been living with Homo sapiens in this area at the same time?

Dont USE AI. Please answer from your knowlage. Why do you think it was possible for several different hominin species to coexist at around 2.5 million years ago when we are the only living hominin species today? Do you think it is possible that one of the later robust Australopithecines could be the ancestor to our genus, Homo? Why or why not? 300 words
