Bacteria have a simpler body plan when compared with human beings. Does it mean that human beings are more evolved than bacteria? Provide a suitable explanation.

Explanation

Evolution is simply the generation of diversity and the shaping of the diversity by environmental selection. Human beings have complex body design compared to bacteria, but Bacteria has the ability to inhabit in the most inhospitable habitats like hot springs, deep-sea thermal vents and the ice in Antarctica. The simpler body design of bacteria is no way lesser than that of the human beings. Hence human beings are not more evolved than bacteria.
