The correct answer is option C, as it incorrectly describes the dorsal nerve cord of crayfish and birds, making it not credible evidence of evolution. The other choices provide valid examples supporting evolutionary theory through anatomical, genetic, or fossil evidence. Therefore, the structural similarities and differences between these organisms demonstrate their evolutionary relationships more accurately.
