Answer:

The correct answer is option a, that is, sympatric speciation.

Explanation:

Speciation, which takes place when two groups of similar species live in a similar geographical location, however, they evolve distinctly unless and until they no longer interbreed and are regarded as different species is termed as sympatric speciation.  

Sympatric speciation is not similar to other kinds of speciation, in which the formation of a new species takes place when a population gets differentiated into two groups because of migration or geographic barrier. The sympatric speciation can be witnessed in various distinct kinds of species. Thus, the given case of monkeys is an illustration of sympatric speciation.

Sauron [17]
Bacteria, a prokaryote, has circular DNA, as do mitochondria and chloroplasts. This provides support for the Endosymbiotic Theory, which states that the mitochondria and chloroplast in eukaryotic cells were once aerobic bacteria (prokaryote) that were ingested by a large anaerobic bacteria (prokaryote).

How do plants regulate water loss due to transpiration?
olga nikolaevna [1]
Stomata are tiny pores present in the leaf that allows gas exchange and is where water vapour leaves plants and carbon dioxide enters. Special cells called guard cells present in the stomata, control each pore's opening or closing. When stomata are open, transpiration rates increase; when they are closed, transpiration rates decrease.
