Answer:
The correct answer will be-<em> </em><em>Homo neanderthalensis</em>
Explanation:
The closest ancestor of modern humans which evolved in the Pleistocene age which was around 7 lakh to 3 lakh years is the <em>Homo neanderthalensis</em> or Neanderthals.
The Neanderthals became extinct around 12,000-10,000 years ago by competitive <em>Homo sapiens</em>.
The specimens of Neanderthals are collected from the central and Western Asia and parts of Europe and showed approximately the same cranial capacity which is around 1450-1500 cc.
Thus, <em>Homo neanderthalensis</em> is the correct answer.

Answer:
1. Ends of the respiratory branches are called alveoli.
2. C. To control blood flow to different areas of the body depending on activities
Explanation:
1. The trachea divides into left and right primary bronchi which in turn divide multiple times upon entering the lungs and make the bronchial tree.
The final branches of the bronchial tree are the terminal bronchioles that lead to alveoli. The alveoli are the balloon-shaped structures and serve as the site of gas exchange between the blood and inhaled air.
2. The opening and closing of sphincters of capillary beds regulate the direction of blood flow. The opening of sphincters allows the blood to flow into associated branches of capillary beds while closed sphincters direct the blood from arterioles to venules via thoroughfare channel.
This local change in blood flow is responsible for the autoregulation of blood flow to different tissues to match their respective metabolic demands. For example, during physical activity, more blood is directed to skeletal and cardiac muscles.
Biochemistry is the study of the actions of the main metabolic processes of living organisms, which are protein synthesis (DNA and RNA molecules, genetic codes and how they work, enzyme formation and function, etc), glycolysis (cellular respiration, aka the Krebs cycle/citric acid cycle to break down glucose molecules to release chemical energy and oxydative phosphorylation, the use of that chemical energy to form ATP molecules in which the chemical energy is put in a form the cell can use, and lipid chemistry (the study of the pathways in which fatty acids are formed into lipids and fat molecules and cholestrol formation and function).
Essentially, biochemistry covers the chemical reactions necessary for cellular and organism metabolism
