Answer:

Option (B) is the correct answer of the following question.

Explanation:

Collagens are a family of enzymes that perpetuate and protect many of the body's tissues, with the exception of connective tissue, femur, fibula, pigmentation, and the caucasian eye (optic disc). It would be the best choice on which to base the phylogeny.

  • The first and most concentrated substance in the body is the collagen genes.
  • It is a large, indigestible cellular muscle which maintains organisms and gives internal cells a texture.
  • Collagen is also an essential part of the crisscrossing membrane neurons.

Other options are incorrect because they are not related to the given scenario.

Answer:

(A) speciation.

Explanation:

Shrinking of water bodies and development of deserts since the Pleistocene ice age produced new vacant niches that could be inhabited by organisms such as fishes. Production of new isolated streams, ponds, and springs allowed the fishes to occupy these new water bodies. Accumulation of genetic variations to become adapted to their new habitat resulted in the evolution of several new species of fishes with many different genetic traits. This represents speciation due to geographical isolation.
