Question ID:PT87 S2 Q14 Passage:Biologists are mistaken in thinking that the fossil record provides direct evidence of the course of human evolution. Fossils cannot be interpreted objectively: the physical characteristics by which they are classified invariably reflect the models the paleontologists wish to test. For example, classifying a pelvis as human because it supported an upright posture requires taking for granted that bipedalism distinguished early hominids from apes. Stem:Which one of the following most accurately expresses the overall conclusion of the argument? Correct Answer Choice:DChoice A:No early apes had pelvises that would support an upright posture. Choice B:The claims made by evolutionary theorists cannot be objectively tested. Choice C:The fossil remains of some early hominids are difficult to distinguish from those of apes. Choice D:The fossil record does not directly reveal the course of human evolution. Choice E:Paleontologists' classifications of fossils are always influenced by the theories that these scientists are testing.
