Solution

option \'c\' may be correct.

they  evolved during the early Oligocene or possibly near the end of the Eocene. end of eocene indicates paleocene. therefore, option \'c\' may be correct.

whether its oligocene, eocene or paleocene, all are 23-55 million years ago. therefore, option \'b\' is wrong.

study on prosimian fossils indicated that they came from Fayum of Egypt. 36 million years ago, it was a rainforest. now it is a desert.
