Answer 1: The differences between Homo Habilis and Australopithecus were the following: Australopithecus resembled the great apes unlike Homo habilis, which had a more human body. On the other hand, Homo habilis used tools such as carved stones and Australopithecus did not use any tools and had a lower cranial capacity.

Answer 2: Differences between the two species. The Cro-Magnon man had a nomadic and sedentary lifestyle, had a greater capacity for socialization and communication and possessed a greater adaptation to changing climatic conditions. In contrast, the Neanderthal man had a completely nomadic lifestyle, his life expectancy was much less than that of his successor and they did not have a plan for the distribution of resources.
