Solution

The correct option is A Neanderthal man
In 1856, Johann Karl Fuhlrott first recognized the fossil called as "Neanderthal man", discovered in Neanderthal, a valley near Mettmann in what is now North Rhine Westphalia, Germany. The Neanderthals are an extinct species of human in the genus Homo. They are closely related to modern humans differing in DNA by just 0.12%.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
