I need help on the worksheet below. What Do You Know?The following chart lists five different locations on Earth today. Suppose thatscientists find a fossil of an ancient organism in each location. Based on the type of fossil foundthere, decide how the location has changed over time. In particular, decide whether eachlocation:• Used to be a forest• Used to be underwater• Used to be a tropical islandHas not changed since the fossil was formedWrite your answers in the third column of the chart.FossilWhere was it found?How has the location changed?sea shellthe side of a mountainpalm branchan ice sheet in the Arcticthe imprint of a cactus leaf a desertinsect trapped in tree sapunder the ocean floorshark tootha wide-open grassland

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?
