Solution

The correct option is A 900cc
The stage of Homo erectus lived about 1.5 million year ago. They had an average cranial capacity of about 1000 cc, significantly larger than that of early hominids.
So, it can be concluded that Homo erectus had a large brain having cranial capacity around 900 cc.
