Answer:

Means to increase drag and prevent sinking is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Plankton avoid sinking by increasing their surface area and decreasing their density. Spines slow down sinking by adding surface area without increasing density. Defense against predation would be to sing below. Not the opposite.

The neandertal site in croatia that has produced hominin remains showing the full suite of classic neandertal morphology is:____
AlekseyPX

The neandertal site in Croatia that has produced hominin remains to show the full suite of classic Neandertal morphology is Krapina.

Explain the morphology of Neandertal.

Below 55 degrees North latitude, Neandertals inhabited Western Eurasia. Notably, none have been identified in North Africa despite their presence south of Haifa (Israel), despite their presence.

Paleogenetic evidence suggests they existed in the East, reaching as far as Southern Siberia. This distribution depicts the northern boundary of the eco-geographical range of humans in the Late MP and Early LP.

This had significant ramifications for the Neandertals' biological adaptations, the pattern of terrain occupation, and demography. They were large-bodied hominins with higher energy needs than the majority of modern hunters and gatherers.

All of the isotopic studies that are currently available indicate that their primary source of protein was animal, and the archaeological record paints a picture of effective hunters who concentrated on medium-sized prey.

Hence, the answer is Krapina.
