Answer:

The correct answer is option B. Old world monkeys.

Explanation:

The prehensile tail is characterized by the ability to hold grasping or move around an object for griping. The monkeys are divided into 2 major groups, that is, the Old World monkeys and the New World monkeys. The Old World monkeys do not have a prehensile tail and elongated face and opposable thumbs.

The new world monkeys have a prehensile tail that helps them to grab or hold branches of trees.

Thus, the correct answer is option B. Old world monkeys.
