The extinct human who lived 1,00,000 to 40,000 years ago in Europe, Asia and parts of Africa, with short stature, heavy eye brows, retreating foreheads, large jaws with heavy teeth, stocky bodies, a lumering gait and stooped posture was Neanderthal man. They were closely related to modern humans having DNA over 99.5% the same. With an average cranial capacity of 1600 cm3, the cranial capacity of Neanderthals is notably larger than the 1400 cm3 average for modern humans, indicating that their brain size was larger. Males stood 164–168 cm (65–66 in) and females 152–156 cm (60–61 in) tall.Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
