Question

A 419-million-year-old Chinese Fossil recently proved the evolution of Human Middle Ear from which creature?

• A. Fish
• B. Chimpanzee
• C. Turtle
• D. Snake

Hint:

Evolutionary biology often traces the origins of modern anatomical features to ancient aquatic organisms.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To identify the creature linked to the evolution of the human middle ear:
1. A 419-million-year-old Chinese fossil provided evidence that the human middle ear evolved from the spiracle of ancient fish.
2. This fossil supports the theory that certain structures in modern vertebrates have evolved from features present in early aquatic ancestors.
3. The other options are not associated with this specific evolutionary pathway.
Therefore, the correct answer is (1) Fish.
