Neanderthals and sapiens coexisted in ice age in Europe about 35-40 thousand years ago. There is some evidence which shows that the reasons sapiens survived and neanderthals didn't, had to do with their cultures. So, explain two ways that neanderthal and sapiens cultures differed.

update on what the genetics research on the Neanderthals and Denisovans now shows us about those species and about our own. In your response, you should answer the following series of questions: Who are the Neanderthals and the Denisovans? What does the "Last Human Standing" documentary say about the paleogenetic research on Neanderthals and Denisovans? Why did the documentary get it wrong? What has happened since the documentary aired? Discuss some information from the lecture by Svante Pääbo to update the film. ... What does ancient DNA (aDNA) teach us about each of these species? Which human populations are they connected to? ... What can their genomes tell us about their population structures? ... What does this research show us about our own evolutionary trajectory as modern humans? ... Finally, use the internet to find a news article describing recent (2020-2021) paleogenetic research findings related to either Neanderthals or Denisovans. Describe the findings and explain why they are significant
