Question

Vestigial organs are those which are

• A. Well developed
• B. Functionless
• C. Reduced
• D. Both B and C

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both B and C

Vestigial organs are the organs which have lost some or all of their ancestral functions and forms in a species. Example: appendix, earlobe, wisdom tooth etc. All of the organs above are functionless in the human. These organs might have functions in ancestral species but not in current species. Like appendix has functions in herbivores but not in human.

So option D is the right choice.
