Question

Vestigial organs provide evidence of organic evolution in the category

• A. Anatomical
• B. Embryological
• C. Morphological
• D. Palaeontological

Answer 1

The correct option is A Anatomical

• The structures present in an organism that has lost all or most of its original function in the course of evolution are called vestigial organs.
  
• In humans, the vestigial organs include the muscles of the ear (Auricular muscles), wisdom teeth, the vermiform appendix, the coccyx, body hair, and the semilunar fold in the corner of the eye (nictitating membrane).
• As organs are the anatomical parts of the body hence vestigial organs provide evidence of organic evolution in the anatomical category.
• So, the correct answer is 'Anatomical'.
