Solution

The correct option is D 1600 c.c.
Cro-Magnons were robustly built and powerful. The body was generally heavy and solid with a strong musculature. The forehead was fairly straight rather than sloping like in Neanderthals and with only slight brow ridges. The face was short and wide. The chin was prominent. The brain capacity was about 1,600 cc, larger than the average for modern humans.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
