If you look at the leftmost part of the graphic, it includes a time axis, where the top represents the most recent time and the bottom the earlier times, so just using this axis, we can see that the fossil A is the earliest, or the youngest, because it it the highest one. - This is the correct answer, fossil A. 

Additionally, we could look at the periods - our fossil A is from the Jurassic period. we can compare it to the fossil B, which is from Permian period. Indeed, Jurassic is a younger age than Permian (or  Devonian and Cambrian, the ages of C and D) - so this confirms that A is the best answer.

The earth is round first discovered by
valina [46]
It isn't exactly known who discovered it first, but the earliest claim of earth being round rather than flat was posed by Pythagoras sometime around 500 B.C. He argued that if the moon was round the Earth should be as well.

After that, his claim was proven true by a man named Anaxagoras at around 500-430 B.C when he brought up solar and lunar eclipses. The shape of Earth's shadow on the moon was also used as evidence that the Earth was round.

And finally, in 350 B.C the great Aristotle declared that the Earth was a sphere based on constellations you can see if you travel farther from the equator. Over the next hundred or so years, Aristarchus and Eratosthenes actually measured the size of the earth.
