In evolutionary terms, can we say which among bacteria, spiders, fish and chimpanzees have a ‘better’ body design? Why or why not?
A better body design is, which have more complexity in their structural and developmental characteristics and have control on their body. Every organism has their body design according to their needs for survival in the environment. Among all four organisms bacteria, spider, fish and chimpanzee- chimpanzees have more complex body structure and can do more functions according to the evolutionary terms. But all four organisms have better body design according to their needs to adapt to the environment. So, we cannot decide which organisms have better body design in the evolutionary terms.
