The correct answer is:
C. They have around 2.5 percent Neanderthal DNA in their genomes.
This percentage indicates that Aboriginal Australians, like other non-African populations, have some Neanderthal ancestry, suggesting that they are part of the migration of modern humans out of Africa and into Eurasia, where they would have come into contact with Neanderthals.
