Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Evolution simply means an orderly change from one condition to another It is often called descent with modification. Tail provides an evidence of atavism or reversion, i.e. reappearance of certain ancestral characters which had disappeared or were reduced. Tail is absent in man, but occasionally early embryo of man possesses an external tail (vestigial tail vertebrae) In adults the tail is represented by a string of caudal vertebrae, which constitute the coccyx (tail bone).
