Solution

The correct option is A Australopithecus
Lucy, an Australopithecus was the first Hominid to be discovered. The archaeologists were able to tell that she was female by her bone structure. She was discovered in Ethiopia, while the song 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds' by the Beatles, a famous music group, was playing. So, the archaeologists named her Lucy.
