Answer: Colon
Explanation:
As Hamlet so aptly advised: "To thine own self be true."
- A Colon is the punctuation mark that is used to direct you to the information. Colon is usually giving the silent impression of ''Which is'' ''As follows'' ''Thus'' ''Which are'' and more. In this case, we can see that colon is more appropriate than semicolon which presents the pause and it is usually used between two independent clauses.
A colon is the punctuation mark with two parallel dots and it can be easily recognized in a sentence.

Answer:
D.
Explanation:
"Cave Art May Have Been Handiwork of Neanderthals" is an article written by Christopher Joyce. The article speaks about the new discoveries that scientists have made regarding cave art situated in Spain.
The author said in the article that these arts in the cave found in Spain were first attributed to Africans and that the arts must have been painted some 45,000 years ago. But with new technology, scientists are claiming that these arts are the work of some 65,000 years ago and at that time Neanderthals were assumed to exist. So, scientists with new technologies have proved their previous claims false.
<u>In the conclusive paragraph of his article, that is paragraph 17, Joyce says that the final credit of these arts depends on the new technologies. This means that the technologies used by scientists to date the cave art are not accurate</u>.
So, the correct answer is option D.
