Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best fossil evidence that suggests Neandertals' ability to produce a language like modern humans comes from the hyoid bone.

This bone is located in the neck between the chin and the thyroid, which is also named "tongue bone" or "language bone".

So the correct answer is A.

I hope this answer helps.
