Let's join the sentences to give a contextually and grammatically meaningful sentence. 

The correct sequences are:$

A talks about 'missing link', which can make meaningful sentence with D.and F. So, A-D and A-F$

B and E both talk about fossils. So, B-E$

C talks about discoveries, which is related to scientists in D. So, C-D$

Out of these, only A-D and A-F $are expressed in the given options.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.
