Fair skin and red hair are caused by different genes in modern humans, than they were in Neanderthals.
They were caused by different genes.
Yes, humans interbred with Neanderthals in the past.
No, humans and Neanderthals are not the same species. Neanderthals were a separate species of hominins that lived alongside and interbred with early humans.
Humans possess two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. This is known as diploid inheritance.
No. European humans (Cro-Magnon) lived at the same time as the Neanderthals.
Neanderthals are early humans, therefore they are mammals
Plants only inherit few physical characteristics, while Humans often inherit many physical features.
In humans, inheritance is typically controlled by the interaction of two sets of chromosomes from each parent, leading to diverse combinations of genes in offspring. In plants, inheritance can involve a variety of mechanisms, such as self-pollination, cross-pollination, and a combination of asexual and sexual reproduction. Additionally, plants can exhibit different patterns of inheritance, such as incomplete dominance or cytoplasmic inheritance, that are less commonly observed in humans.
Yes, Neanderthals and humans were able to interbreed, as evidenced by genetic studies showing that modern humans of non-African descent have Neanderthal DNA in their genomes.
Yes, scientific evidence suggests that Neanderthals interbred with early humans, as indicated by genetic studies showing that modern humans outside of Africa have Neanderthal DNA in their genomes.
Paint on cave walls.
Yes, scientific evidence suggests that Neanderthals and early humans did interbreed in the past, as modern humans of non-African descent carry about 1-2 Neanderthal DNA.
