Solution

The correct option is C Biston betularia
Archaeopteryx is considered by many to be the first bird. It is actually intermediate between the present birds and the predatory dinosaurs. In addition to the amphibian characters, Ichthyostega also shows pisces characters. Thus, it is a connecting link between pisces and reptiles. Seymouria is a connecting link between amphibia and reptiles.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
