Solution: This is a controversial subject as it all depends on how we assess evolution. If the body’s complexity is a criterion, humans are considerably superior to germs. Bacteria organise themselves on a cellular level, whereas humans organize themselves on an organ level.

On the other hand, germs have developed faster than humans in terms of survival abilities. Humans may exist in any environment as long as they are protected artificially. Humans are unable to survive in harsher environments, whereas germs can be found anywhere on the planet. They can withstand even the harshest environments, such as hydrothermal vents and sulphur springs.
