When people think of "cavemen", they are typically thinking of Neanderthals, not just because they were so similar to us, but also because they were the first extinct hominins ever discovered in the 19th century. We have learned quite a lot about these hominins since their discovery, how they differ from us, and what their demise must have been. We have also learned about a similar group called Denisovans. What is the relationship between these hominins and ourselves?Script by Erika of Gutsick Gibbon: https://www.youtube.com/c/GutsickGibbonWatch the whole Anthropology playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAnthroGeneral Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioAnatomy & Physiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAnatPhysMicrobiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveMicrobioBotany Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBotanyZoology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveZooEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.

Moving on, we reach the Late Middle Ages, which was a tumultuous time. It included events like the Hundred Years' War and the Black Death. Here we see the first initial signs of a public distrust in the Church which eventually led to the Renaissance.

In order to do linear algebra, we will have to know how to use matrices. So what's a matrix? It's just an array of numbers listed in a grid of particular dimensions that can represent the coefficients and constants from a system of linear equations. They're fun, I promise!

We know how to make enolates, but when two structurally different enolates are possible, how do we get the one we want? It has to do with selecting the right base.

Well, this is weird. What are all these squiggles?
