Correct answer

B. A-3, B-1, C-4, D-2

Step-by-step solution

According to the geological time scale and evolutionary history from NCERT: First non-cellular forms of life originated about 3 billion years ago. They would have been giant molecules like RNA, proteins, and polysaccharides. The first cellular forms of life appeared about 2000 million years ago (mya). About 200 mya, some land reptiles went back into the water to evolve into fish-like reptiles (e.g., Ichthyosaurs). About 15 mya, primates called Dryopithecus and Ramapithecus existed. Therefore, the correct matching i
