D Correct answer
Explanation

Despite their long necks, giraffes have the same number of neck vertebrae (cervical vertebrae) as humans - seven. Each vertebra is greatly elongated in giraffes. Most mammals, including cows, bears, and monkeys, also have seven cervical vertebrae. This is a classic example of how evolutionary constraints maintain similar skeletal structures across species of different sizes.
