Fossils
Knowledge did Darwin’s theory need in order to be tested, which he didn’t have at the time was fossils
- Even though Charles Darwin had access to a sizable collection of fossils that had been discovered up until the 1800s, a great deal more fossils have been discovered following his passing that are crucial pieces of evidence for the Theory of Evolution.
- Many of these "newer" fossils represent human predecessors and confirm Darwin's theory of human evolution by "descent through modification."
- When Darwin first proposed the theory that humans were primates and related to apes, the majority of his evidence was circumstantial; however, many fossils have subsequently been discovered to fill in the gaps of human evolution.
- Even though the theory of human evolution is still very debatable, more and more information keeps coming to light that supports and updates Darwin's initial theories.
- However, until all intermediate fossils of human evolution are discovered or until religion and people's religious beliefs vanish, this aspect of evolution is likely to remain debatable.
- Since things are unlikely to occur, there will always be doubts about how human evolution took place.

It might knock the old theory away completely because all of the new knowledge doesn't support the theory or it could change it because some of the new information supports the old stuff.
The answer is D! I hope that helps
