Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is false.
According to Cerling's study of paleoenvironments, he concluded that human ancestors did not equally partition their time between more open and more closed habitats. It is important to note that our understanding of Paleolithic dwellings is limited, but caves are the most famous example of Paleolithic shelters. They were not widely used by early humans and most hominids probably never entered a cave.
