D. All of the above

Each of these points provides evidence that supports the Big Bang theory and the idea that the universe originated from a singularity:

A. **Cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB)** is the remnant radiation from the hot, dense state of the early universe, providing evidence of the conditions shortly after the Big Bang.

B. **Redshift of light from distant galaxies** indicates that the universe is expanding. This expansion suggests that galaxies were once much closer together, consistent with the idea of a singularity.

C. **The universe is expanding** means that it was once smaller and denser, consistent with the concept of a singularity at the beginning of the universe.

All of these pieces of evidence collectively support the Big Bang theory and the idea of a singularity as its origin.
