The correct answer is

Anatomically Modern Homo sapiens across the Old World

The Upper Paleolithic cultural phase is associated with Anatomically Modern Homo sapiens, who spread across the Old World and are linked with advanced blade-tool industries and early art.

Homo erectus and Homo neanderthalensis belong to earlier phases, and Denisovans are a distinct hominin group not specifically tied to this Upper Paleolithic phase.

Hence, Anatomically Modern Homo sapiens across the Old World is the correct answer.
