Question

State whether the following statement is true or false.

Vestigial organs are those organs which have disappeared from the body.

Answer 1

This statement is false.

Explanation: 

Vestigial organs are actually organs that are present in the body but are nonfunctional or reduced in function compared to their ancestral state. They are remnants of organs that were functional in ancestral organisms, not organs that have completely disappeared. Examples include the vermiform appendix and coccyx in humans.
