Answer:

The correct answer is option A and C.

Explanation:

The trilobite is a species that was existed much earlier than mammoth or dinosaur. The dinosaurs and mammoths are much younger or newer species than the trilobites, these are primitive life forms.

According to image also it is well established that trilobites were present on the earlier rock layer which mean they have died earlier than dinosaur or mammoth,

Thus, the correct answer is option A and C.
