The correct answer is the option (d) the increase of carbon dioxide.

The increase of carbon dioxide in the earth's early atmospheric conditions made the aquatic dwelling organisms to adapt into terrestrial dwellers. Volcanic eruptions released a few gases, of which, carbon dioxide was abundantly released. It is a vital requirement for all living organisms. The first terrestrial plants appeared which used the carbon dioxide for the synthesis of food by the process of photosynthesis. Thus, this continuous availability of carbon dioxide helped the land dwelling plants to evolve. This increased the oxygen content in the atmosphere which made the animals to evade the terrestrial habitat.

The build up of ozone was not an earth's early atmospheric condition and the stromatolites were the sedmientary rock layers of water bodies like oceans. The formation of rust on the earth's crust did not help the land dwelling animals to evolve.

Thus, the increase in the carbon dioxide helped the land dwelling oragnisms to evolve.

Arsenic, a toxic chemical, can leach from this treated wood, leaving residues on the wood’s surface and in nearby soil. Young children who play on or near decks or playscapes made from CCA- treated wood can get arsenic on their skin and into their bodies, especially if they eat or drink without washing their hands. Because of the health risks of long-term exposure to arsenic, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced that as of December 31, 2003, arsenic Currently the EPA does not recommend that people remove existing structures made with CCA-treated wood or the soil surrounding those structures. However, they do recommend that people reduce their potential exposure to arsenic.</span>
