The correct option is C. The earth forms, prokaryotes appear, eukaryotes appear, multicellular organisms appear.

Explanation:

There are many theories made by scientists which explain the formation of the planet Earth and many other theories describe the formation of life on this planet. Some theories claim that the Earth was formed from the Sun and eventually it began orbiting around the Sun. The location of the Earth from the Sun was best for the formation of life on Earth.

Some hypothesis claim that life started on Earth in extreme heated conditions known as hydrothermal vents. Prokaryotic organisms were the first to get evolved. Some prokaryotic organisms engulfed smaller prokaryotes and gave rise to eukaryotes. These eukaryotes over time formed multicellular organisms.
