The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Evolution**: Evolution refers to the gradual changes in living organisms over long periods. It is important to recognize that these changes do not happen suddenly but occur over millions of years. 2. **Analyzing Fossil Records**: Fossil records provide evidence of how life forms have changed over time. By studying these records, scientists can infer the evolutionary pathways that organisms have taken. 3. **Evaluating the Options**: The question provides four options regarding the nature of evolution: - (A) Simple to complex in a sudden way - (B) Complex to simple in a gradual way - (C) Simple to complex in a gradual way - (D) Complex to simple in a sudden way 4. **Eliminating Incorrect Options**: - Option (A) and (D) suggest sudden changes in evolution, which contradicts the understanding that evolution is a gradual process. - Option (B) suggests evolution goes from complex to simple, which is not supported by fossil evidence. Evolution typically shows a trend from simpler forms to more complex forms. 5. **Identifying the Correct Option**: - The only option that aligns with the gradual nature of evolution and the trend observed in fossil records is (C) Simple to complex in a gradual way. This indicates that life forms started from simpler organisms and evolved into more complex ones over time. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, based on the analysis of fossil records and the understanding of evolutionary processes, the correct answer is (C) Simple to complex in a gradual way. ---
