Which one of the following features is closely related with the evolution of humans?

1. Loss of tail
2. Shortening of jaws

4. Flat nails

Correct answer: Loss of tail

Solution

Humans evolved from tailless primate ancestors, so the loss of a tail is a key evolutionary feature linked to human lineage. The other options are either general primate traits or not as directly tied to human evolution.
