5. How is the scientific theory of evolution supported by the comparison of the skulls and skeletons of mod
humans and extinct hominids?
A. By making the hip, spine, and skull comparisons, the age of different hominid specimens can be
determined.
B. Comparison of skull and skeletons provides evidence that humans and different hominid species
interacted.
C. Similarity in skull shapes, hands, and hips between extinct hominids and humans supports a common
ancestry,
D. Skull and skeleton comparisons can explain why hominids were inferior and became extinct while
