उत्तर
Vestigial organ appendix present in human body is proof of evolution.
Explanation:
Appendix, which is useless to human, is useful and fully functional organ in ruminants. Similarly, muscles of ear pinna, which are useless to human, are useful in monkeys for movement of ear pinna. Various vestigial organs like tail-bone (coccyx), wisdom teeth, and body hairs are present in body of human being.
Notes
Above question has three possible answers, [Option (B), (C) and (D)].
