Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

The evolution of human species in which one species transformed into another species evolves by a mechanism known as anagenesis.

Anagenesis is the mechanism of evolution which transform one species into a different species within a lineage. This process is slow and takes time to form species, therefore, is also known as gradualism or phyletic transformation.

The<em> Homo sapiens</em> evolved from<em> Homo erectus </em>where<em> Homo sapiens </em>overwrites the ancestral species and caused the species to become  extinct.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
