\we looked at art that goes back to the dawn of humanity and found it had one common feature: animal - human hybrids,\ said dr. christopher chippindale.
a. styles
b. exhibits
c. mixtures
d. products

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "hybrids" in the context of "animal - human hybrids", we analyze the options. "Hybrid" in general means a combination of different things. Option A "styles" refers to a way of doing or presenting something, which doesn't fit. Option B "exhibits" are items on display, not related to the meaning of a combination. Option D "products" are things made or produced, which is not the same as a combination of animal and human. Option C "mixtures" means a combination of different elements, which matches the idea of animal - human hybrids as a combination of animal and human characteristics.

Answer:

C. mixtures
