<span>The correct answer is "Sudden changes in the somatic cells of organisms play a key role in the process of adaptive evolution". Adaption in evolution is caused by sudden gene mutations that affect an organism's offspring and give it - potentially - a better chance of survival. For example, a giraffe who passed on a mutated gene for a slightly longer neck to its offspring gave its offspring a better chance of reaching untouched food, and thus a survival advantage.</span>
It's harder to find one of the many genes involved in a polygenic trait vs the only gene involved in a discrete trait.
