Answer: b. it takes time for signals to travel all the way to the brain.

Reflex reaction is the instantaneous reaction of the body to the applied external stimuli. This mechanism is present in the body to make it possible to quickly react to situations without putting much effort into thinking and processing the nature of the stimuli. The reflex arc does not include the brain. This is because the brain has to receive signal from the sensory organs through sensory neurons, process it, and send a signal through the motor neuron to the muscles to generate a response. The whole process is time taking and lowers the reaction time of the organism, which can be dangerous in certain situations.

"The first and second hominids were able to mate and produce offspring, but the first and third hominids could not." <span>Although that might be the case, it might also not. "More similar" needn't be 'similar enough' (disregarding the fact that all homonid specimens involved could happen to share the same sex). </span>

<span>"The first and second hominids shared the same geographic location, while the third was isolated." </span>

<span>That information would be revealed by the geographic location they came from. </span>

<span>"The first and second hominids most likely became extinct before the third hominid species." </span>

<span>Perhaps or perhaps not. As ancestral lineages can survive for longer than descendant lineages, it needn't apply. Still, I suppose the non-existent law of averages provides some sort of justification for the use of "Most likely". </span>

<span>"The first and second hominids have a more recent common ancestor than the first and third hominids." </span>

<span>Assuming these are all in the same neat lineage, then the most recent common ancestor of the first and second is also the most recent common ancestor of the first and the third.</span>
