C. hypothesis. He is giving a possible answer to the question "why did the celery crisp when placed in water?"
Gorillas are ground-dwelling, predominantly herbivorous apes that inhabit the forests of central Sub-Saharan Africa. The genus Gorilla is divided into two species: the eastern gorillas and the western gorillas (both critically endangered), and either four or five subspecies. They are the largest living primates. The DNA of gorillas is highly similar to that of humans, from 95 to 99% depending on what is included, and they are the next closest living relatives to humans after the chimpanzees and bonobos.
There is no answer that is right except for C. Natural Selection.
Genetic Recombination doesn't change gene frequency;nor does migration. (Unless it's local)
Mutation could be the answer, but since mutations are too rare to really power Evolution, the only logical answer is Natural Selection.
