A. Big Bang TheoryExplanation
The theory which explains the beginning of the Earth is known as the Big Bang Theory. This theory suggests that the universe originated from a singularity, a point of infinite density and temperature, around 13.8 billion years ago. It states that the universe has been expanding ever since, and provides explanations for the formation of galaxies, stars, and planets, including Earth. The Big Bang Theory is widely accepted by scientists and is supported by various observational evidence, such as the cosmic microwave background radiation.Rate this question:

-
64
-
54

Correct Answer
A. 54Explanation
If we imagine that the Earth began 24 hours ago, then the first ape man appeared only 54 seconds ago. This can be calculated by dividing the 24 hours (which is equivalent to 86,400 seconds) by the number of ape men that appeared. Since there is only one ape man mentioned in the question, we divide 86,400 by 1, resulting in 54 seconds.Rate this question:
