Question

Which of the following facts develop suspicions in Lamarckism?

• A. Human females are not born with bored ear pinna although they have been bored for thousand of years.
• B. Giraffe has long neck to eat leaves of tall trees.
• C. A stag can run fast to protect against the enemies.
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Human females are not born with bored ear pinna although they have been bored for thousand of years.

Lamarckism was disproved later after putting up the human ear piercing example. Lamarckism which is otherwise called as use and disuse theory advocated the idea that animals acquired characteristics after using certain physical traits constantly.
