I further state that H. sapiens had at one time much more closely related cousins, for instance,H. neanerthalensis. However, all other species of Homo went extinct, leaving the closest relative to humans much more different than existed at one time. (I tried reading the AiG page, but...
The "more laterally facing" acetabular area orientation has also been reported in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) relative to RH74. The identification of such a trait in ancient hominins, such as the Neanderthals, and great apes raises the question of the derived or plesiomorphic condition of the ...
However, due to the questionable taxonomic designation of its closest relative L. phocaeense, it is difficult to correctly classify c-25 in the current classification scheme of Lachnoclostridium [59]. As observed in Figure 3, growth and DCA production of all tested strains, including c-25, ...
