Answer: B. It meant there was enough time for evolution to have occurred slowly
Explanation: Contrary to the theory of creationism, according to which everything is created in the beginning as it is created and the characteristics of animals, plants and humans are the same from the beginning, Darwin's theory of evolution speaks of the gradual development of the qualities necessary for survival. Thus, according to the theory of creationism, the Earth is not very old, at least not as much as was necessary to justify Darwin's evolution. The changes described by Darwin take millions of years, so the theory that the Earth is very old is quite in favour.
In order to answer this question, I will use two different perspectives of ethics: the consequentialist perspective, and the deontological perspective.
Consequentialism argues that the morality of an action lies with its consequences. This means that an action with bad consequences is an immoral action, and vice versa. In this case, killing the last remaining Redwood would not have any negative consequence on any being in the world, as no one benefits from it anymore. This means that the act is not immoral.
A deontological perspective states that there are principles that should be taken as rules, and which govern what is right and what is wrong. Therefore, rules and duties are central. For example, a principle might state that "all life is valuable." As the Redwood falls under the definition of life, killing it would be considered an immoral action.
