Technically, a species is a population or groups of populations that can potentially interbreed freely within and among themselves. Subspecies, on the other hand, are subgroups within a species that have different traits and are defined by scientists

What’s the difference between race and subspecies?
A long time ago, the words race and subspecies were used to mean the same thing in biology. This was before we knew how much or how little genes could differ between animals. Now we only use subspecies to refer to living things that aren’t human. We only use race when we talk about humans. We often try to group humans by race based on how they look. While humans may look different on the outside, our DNA looks very similar.
It is clear that the process of human racism can derail in the long run. The longer it stagnates without converging into integration or assimilation, the more difficult it is to untangle its terrible sequential interactions.
We descend from Homo naledi!
Homo erectus had a varied DNA and practiced inbreeding and outbreeding.
invented the soul and earthly reincarnation:
1) Australopiths broke off a branch.
3) They stripped it from bark by rubbing on rough surface like sharp rocks.
In most cases, the Fongoli chimpanzees carried out four or more steps to manufacture spears for hunting. In all but one of the cases:
1) chimps broke off a living branch to make their tool. They would then
2) trim the side branches and leaves. In a number of cases, chimps also
3) trimmed the ends of the branch and
4) stripped it of bark. Some chimps also
5) sharpened the tip of the tool with their teeth.
A 2011 study using ratios of strontium isotopes in teeth suggested that Australopithecus africanus and P. robustus groups in southern Africa were patrilocal: females tended to settle farther from their region of birth than males did.
'Traditionally, researchers have used variation among Homo fossils to define different species. But in light of these new findings, Dr Lordkipanidze and his colleagues suggest that early, various Homo fossils, with their origins in Africa, actually represent variation among members of a single, evolving lineage - most appropriately, Homo erectus.'
But Homo sapiens got a disastrous impoverished genome, with identical alleles and prone to autosomal recessive disorders. Therefore I placed the wording of the Tree of Knowledge of autosomal recessive disorders at 74,000 years ago, central in the outburst of Mount Toba on Sumatra. The genetic downfall of Homo sapiens actually was from 100,000 - 50,000 years ago.
Therefore, the following conclusion looks somewhat premature:

The spread of modern humans out of Africa about 80,000 years ago is an important period in human history and is often described as a genetic bottleneck. Populations moved out of Africa and into Asia and Europe. The effects of these migrations can be seen even today. Genetic diversity is lower in populations outside of Africa than in African. That Pestera Muierii 1 has high genetic diversity implies that the greatest loss of genetic diversity occurred during the last Ice Age (which ended about 10,000 years ago) instead of during the out of Africa migration.
