(N/A) Evolution cannot always be equated with progress or 'better' body designs.
Evolution simply creates more complex body designs over time.
However,this does not mean that simpler body designs are inefficient.
In fact,bacteria,which possess a very simple body design,are among the most successful and cosmopolitan organisms found on Earth.
They can survive in extreme conditions such as hot springs,the deep sea,and freezing environments.
Therefore,bacteria,spiders,fish,and chimpanzees represent different,successful branches of evolution,and none can be considered 'better' than the others.
