Hint:Human beings (Homo sapiens) belong to the genus Homo from the kingdom Animalia. Out of all species in genus Homo, Homo sapiens have a huge brain with dexterous (having great ability to perform tasks with hand ) hand and bipedal locomotion (ability to walk with two limbs or legs).
Complete answer:The origin of life started with water. Changes in the organism based on natural selection lead to evolution. Humans (Homo sapiens) are evolved species from closely related species Homo erectus that means upright man originated in Africa within the last 200000 years ago. The word Homo sapiens means ‘wise man’. All the organism play a vital role in natural balance and food chain. Based on what an organism eats, they are classified into 4 groups:
Autotrophic: this group is known as producers as they produce their own food. Ex. Algae
Herbivorous: this group only eats plants and algae (autotrophs). Ex. Deer.
Carnivorous: this group only eats animals. Ex. Lion.
Omnivorous: this group eats both plants and animals. Ex. Most of the mammals. Here, Herbivorous animals are referred to as primary consumers whereas carnivorous and omnivorous animals are referred to as secondary consumers.
A human being is an omnivorous animal. An omnivorous animal is a group of animals that consume and survive on both plants and animals. Humans eat vegetables, fruits, the meat we also use products like eggs, and milk; we eat many algae like seaweed, fungi such as mushrooms, and many other products that are derived from plants and animals.
Hence, the correct option will be option A- Omnivorous.
Note: The species Homo sapiens from genus Homo are the only existing species, rest all the species from genus Homo like Homo habilis (means hand man), Homo erectus (upright man), Homo heidelbergensis (Heidelberg man, first human species living in a cold climate), Neanderthals (the name is derived from Neander Valley were the fossil were found), etc.
